Even with our WordPress Pro plans, the most comprehensive version of Plesk is already included (Web Host Edition).

Yes. You can easily install popular extensions and significantly increase the functionality of your Plesk servers. This includes, for example, security extensions with tools for spam prevention, encryption and DDoS protection, and web development extensions with tools like Google PageSpeed Insights, Docker, and Code Editor.
You have several options: On the one hand, you can install additional extensions that provide you with far-reaching backup functionalities. On the other hand, you can use an FTP storage for backups with Plesk, which can also be used for full server backups. In this Help Centre article, we provide a step-by-step explanation of how to use an FTP storage for backups with Plesk.
