What our clients say:

Aid4Mail is a spectacular product. I don’t think people realize how hard it is to reliably convert email from one format to another, and then do it at scale the way you do. It really is quite an accomplishment.
MATT COAN, SONIAN (USA)
I often recommend my clients utilize Aid4Mail to assist in the conversion, search, and export of emails to aid in their eDiscovery cost containment strategies. Aid4Mail impressively allows flexibility in handling the myriad email formats found on modern computers, and is one of my must-have tools.
RICHARD D LUTKUS​​​ – PARTNER – SEYFARTH SHAW LLP (UK)
I work for a law firm and we used your product to convert a MBOX file to PST. This software worked brilliantly, it even fixed corruption that existed when we attempted to do it manually or with other software. Thank you for that.
