This is a really old question, and while looking at some of the plugins mentioned here, I noticed that many aren't maintained or not quite what I was looking for.

In the end, I found one I liked called Revisionize. While it's reputation and usage isn't up yet since it's rather new, I like it.

Pros:

1. Nice UI within WordPress, buttons are easy to find and there are warnings and notes when you're using the plugin what pressing buttons will do.
2. Has a 5 star rating
3. Last update was 3 months ago, and it's marked as compatible with the latest version of WordPress
4. Compatible with Advanced Custom Fields plugin

Cons:

1. Only 300+ 3,000+ active installs
2. Only 4 19 reviews

Updated the cons list on March 13, 2019. They may or may not still be cons depending on where you draw the line for trust of other users ;)
