I have been using the backup plug-in, but when it comes time to restore, it is necessary to use MySQL from the desktop machine -- which is a pain. As to updates, my hosting provider finally provides automatated installation of WordPress, but with major version changes, there is the need to backup and restore, and that is the point at which I now find myself -- it isn't simple.
