Utility of OST to PST Tool

OST to PST Converter is a technical combination of various tools. The purpose served by this software is not restricted to conversion or recovery only. It serves both and much more, which according to me is the most attractive quality of this software. Here in this review, I will focus all the aspects which can benefit users.

Recovery:

This functionality of software helps to recover data from deteriorated OST file which is not supported by MS Outlook. To accommodate this, there are several features allied to this.

• Advance Scanning:Software is integrated with an advance scanning mechanism. This option is available while software prompts to add the OST file. You just need to check the Advance scan option test box and this will program the tool to perform thorough scanning.

• All Type of Corruption Supported: Software program and its advance scanning mechanism, has been built in such a way that it supports all types of corruption levels. Different types of erroneous OST files are supported by this software.
• Works Fine with Inaccessible OST Files: OST files which have become inaccessible or orphan due to Exchange downtime or account unavailability are also supported by this tool. This serves a huge satisfaction for users who are completely restricted from accessing OST files.

Preview:

• Complete Preview: Software loads the OST file and then it lets users view complete OST data, including emails, contacts, calendars, etc. left pane of the software shows all the data folders and sub folders of OST file one can choose these folders to view its content in right pane listed in same sequence.
• View Individual Item: From the listed items, one can choose a single item and its complete preview as an individual item will be also provided. This makes it easy to view the data individually and check if it has been recovered or not and it exists in the OST file or not.
• Attachments and Attributes: Preview has an another added advantage of showing all the details of emails, including attributes like Meta Data, Subject, cc, From, To, etc. Attachments of emails belonging to different file formats can also be viewed separately.

Conversion:

• Multi-File Conversion: Once recovery is done the extraction process can be done to various email file formats like; PST, EML or MSG. PST is preferred most for recovery purpose but the other file formats can be chosen by those users who want to access emails in other email clients. 
• Access Exchange Data in Other Email Applications: MSG and EML covers majority of email platforms like; Thunderbird, Windows Live Mail, etc. So if the switching of email clients is your scenario, conversion to EML or MSG can be done using this software. In case user wants to extract emails as individual emails, then MSG file format can be chosen.
• Complete Conversion: As far as conversion and recovery are considered, complete data are prioritized by this tool. Few emails can be kept at stake in case of vulnerable corruption issues in the OST file, but at an average all the data is converted.

Account for Advantages and Drawbacks

Software is vast and has undoubtedly multiple features, but yet is not complex, which is another flamboyant thing this software possesses. Overall performance is effective and most important thing is it serves well what it targets to do. What else does any user need? There are some points where this software cannot be preferred. For instance; if you are in urge of recovering/converting contacts and calendars of PST file to be accessed in Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird, then this software will not allow performing it. Because these data types will only be converted to MSG and PST file formats. For EML only emails can be converted. But for OST to PST or MSG file conversion it covers all the data files. Some of its features are very advanced and helpful like;

• Superficial PST Split: An option to divide the PST file with respect to size in GB provided by you is available in this software. This will create multiple PST files with divided data so as to maintain data in separate PST files for better data management.
• Naming Styles for MSG/EML: You can get your converted EML and MSG files as per your choice from the available options of naming conventions. You have to select these naming styles from drop-down menu which are available for OST to MSG and OST to EML conversion.
• Deletion Recovery Available: Deleted data is the most horrible situation and luckily this software has an option to get it back it too. One can get back permanently deleted data from OST file using this OST to PST conversion tool.

Recommendation: I’ll rate this software with 4.7/5 but will also advise users to try the available demo version prior purchasing full version. It is no doubt innovative software for OST issues and can be recommended for individual as well as enterprise level of recovery and conversion.
