Aid4Mail Standard provides an economical solution for the needs of most home users but lacks some of the more advanced features of the other versions, such as support for Office Outlook, databases, and compressed mail archives (see the above table for more details).
Licencing options:
Aid4Mail Standard requires Product activation.
Aid4Mail Professional contains all the features of the Standard version, with additional functionality aimed at business or power users. It supports Office Outlook and Windows Messaging/Exchange clients, and includes import and export capabilities for MAPI profiles, PST databases, and MSG files. The Professional version is also able to filter messages by date, and by text in the email header, and can export mail for viewing in Internet Explorer, MS Excel, and most databases.
Aid4Mail Professional includes powerful email archiving features, sending mail to a highly compressed ZIP file. Attachments are extracted, with duplicates removed, and saved in a separate folder inside the ZIP archive. This provides easy access to them without the need for a special utility. Messages are stored in the non-proprietary mbox format, again within the ZIP file, allowing them to be read with any text editor and with most email clients. This guarantees compatibility with future systems. Aid4Mail Professional can also re-convert these ZIP archives to any other supported target format.
Licencing options:
Aid4Mail Professional requires Product activation.
Aid4Mail Forensic contains all the features of the Professional version, with additional functionality for forensic examination. It is able to process unpurged email from most mail clients (except Office Outlook) and to restore unpurged email during exportation. It also extends filtering capabilities to include both the email header and message body.
Licencing options:
Aid4Mail Forensic requires Product activation. Offline activation is available upon request to customers who need to work on a computer that has no, or restricted, internet access.
Aid4Mail Enterprise contains all the features of the Forensic version but does not require product activation. All licensing options include Aid4Mail Console, and cover installation on computers owned by a company/institution/organization within a radius of 10 miles (16 km) as well as on staff computers used for office work (e.g. travel laptop and home computer).
Licensing options:
Aid4Mail Console is a Win32-console version of Aid4Mail that is distributed with Aid4Mail Enterprise, and the Customer-Service License of Aid4Mail Professional. It cannot be purchased on its own. Aid4Mail Console can be run from batch files, the Windows Start/Run dialog, and any application that can execute other programs; all conversion options are set through command-line switches. Unlike the other versions of Aid4Mail, the Console can process more than one PST file unattended. This capability is particularly useful if you need to process dozens or hundreds of PST files in a batch.
When Aid4Mail Standard, Professional, or Forensic is installed and run, but is not activated, it operates in trial mode. The limitations of trial mode are explained on the Downloads page.
