MainWP vs. Jetpack

MainWP is a suite of open-source self-hosted plugins and Extensions for users with multiple WordPress sites who want to control them from one central location. This includes sites on different hosts or servers. Once you have connected your sites (called Child Sites) to your Dashboard, you can do almost anything from your MainWP Dashboard that you would be able to do from your Child Sites wp-admin.

Jetpack is a powerful collection of security and performance tools made just for WordPress sites by the WordPress experts. It is easy to set up, and works behind the scenes to ensure your site is fast and secure. It’s one less thing to keep track of, allowing you to focus on more important things – like running your business. More than 5 million WordPress sites trust Jetpack for their website security, performance, and growth. Whether you manage a few sites or upwards of 1,000 sites, Jetpack Manage will help automate your client site management.
