What are best migration plugins for LocalWP?  
I consider

- WP Migrate by deliciousbrains
- Updraftplus
- All-in-One WP Migration and Backup
- Duplicator
- WP Synchro

My use cases are:

- single migration between two LocalWP installations (a kind of rewrite of individual files and database tables)
- daily update of certain database tables from localWP to remote host.

Hey @EvgeniyO

Most migration plugins should work with Local, but we don’t have a list or instructions for each one. If you search the Local forums here, you should be able to find posts and threads for many of the plugins in your list to see if something is worth trying. We generally recommend WP Migrate, which, in transparency, is part of our family but was already one of the most popular before falling under the WP Engine umbrella of products.
