WordCamp US 2025 proved once again that our community isn’t just a collection of developers, designers, and dreamers; it’s a living network of collaborators eager to build tomorrow. The event isn’t simply a three-day agenda; it’s the incubator where visionary concepts are sketched on napkins, where handshakes evolve into invitations to innovate, and where the roadmap of WordPress continuously updates. For JetBackup, the week offered the rare gift of undistracted face time with existing and soon-to-be partners, the stage to present the new vision for JetBackup for WordPress, and the rare chance to soak in panels and hallway chats.

One of the biggest announcements to kick off the event was the new partnership between Rocket.net and Hosting.com (WHG). We’re proud to be part of this ecosystem and congratulate both teams for staying focused on their mission: supporting customers and ensuring their sites remain securely backed up with JetBackup.

JetBackup Gives Back to WordPress

As Contributor Day kicked off, it was unmistakable: this was a room pulsing with shared purpose. Contributors of all stripes, some flying in from continents away, huddled across tables to write code, draft documentation, and align visions that advance WordPress. At the Hosting Table, our team spent time with the hosting community, swapping observations and offering on-the-spot discussions about the power of backups.

Meeting with the WordPress Community

Throughout the week, we had great meetings with current and potential partners, conversations that affirmed the growing demand for flexible, powerful backup solutions. Whether it was agencies looking to protect client sites at scale or hosts exploring ways to package backups more effectively, the message was the same: reliability matters, and backups can no longer be an afterthought.

The Buzz in the WordPress Community

This year’s WordCamp was filled with evidence of how fast things are changing. AI showed up everywhere, from brand-new contributor teams to whole sessions on using it ethically. At JetBackup, this hits home. We think of AI not as the eventual replacement for human support, but as a backstage assistant that tightens the reliability, speed, and efficiency of our backup processes.

Another message rang out with equal clarity: support still wears the crown. No tool, no matter how flashy, can compete with the peace of mind that comes from a real person standing by the moment things go sideways. It’s this instinct, this need for security, that fuels everything we build: the quiet promise that, when it counts the most, JetBackup is the calm in the storm.

Celebrating the WordPress Community

Ties tighten when the session halls empty. We were proud to co-sponsor the Digital Asset Happy Hour, where founders, decision-makers, and innovators could take a glass, lean back, and keep the conversation rolling. Gatherings like these are proof that the handshake is still the most powerful tool at the coder’s disposal, that the laughter, the swap of ideas, and the shared late-night insights are as valuable as the code we ship. For every line of script we build, a dozen friendships keep it running. JetBackup is proud to mix in both crowds.

Looking Ahead

At JetBackup, WordCamp US 2025 provided us with more than just valuable discussions; it delivered undeniable clarity. JetBackup creates backup solutions that are simpler, more intelligent, and accessible to every WordPress user, whether you manage a single site or operate a worldwide hosting company.

We left Portland charged and inspired, ready to weave our new insights into the roadmap and deepen our partnerships. These discussions won’t pause here; you’ll catch us next at NamesCon and CloudFest USA this November, where we’ll show how dependable backups are the foundation of confidence and sustainable growth for the entire WordPress community.
