Frequently asked questions
Is Zeebrar a replacement for InfiniteWP?
They solve overlapping but distinct problems. InfiniteWP is a self-hosted panel for managing multiple WordPress sites from one place. Zeebrar is a plugin distribution platform with remote site management. If you primarily need a plugin catalog, virus scanning, and version rollback, Zeebrar is the better fit. If you want a free, self-hosted dashboard and are comfortable running your own server, InfiniteWP still works.
Can I migrate from InfiniteWP to Zeebrar?
There is no direct migration path since they are different types of tools. However, switching is straightforward. Install the GPLC Connector on your WordPress sites, connect them to your Zeebrar account, and you are ready to go. You can keep InfiniteWP running alongside Zeebrar during the transition.
Is InfiniteWP still actively maintained?
Yes, InfiniteWP still receives updates, though the pace has slowed compared to its early years. The core product works, but the interface feels dated compared to newer tools. If you are already using it and it works for your needs, there is no urgent reason to switch.
Which has lower total cost of ownership?
InfiniteWP has a lower sticker price since the core is free and premium is a flat annual fee. However, you need to factor in the cost of hosting the InfiniteWP panel itself, plus the time spent on server maintenance. Zeebrar has a monthly subscription but zero hosting overhead. For solo developers, InfiniteWP may be cheaper. For agencies, the time savings from a managed SaaS often offset the subscription cost.
Does Zeebrar offer a free tier?
Yes. Zeebrar has a free tier with limited credits that gives you access to the full plugin catalog. You can browse, search, and view plugin details without paying. Credits are used when you install or update plugins on connected sites.
