EdbMails EDB Recovery vs Recovery Toolbox for Outlook

EdbMails EDB Recovery is Windows software for recovering corrupted, damaged, or dismounted offline Exchange EDB files. It can restore deleted mailboxes and items such as email, contacts, calendars, tasks, and notes, then export data to PST, MHT, HTML, or EML. Filters cover date, subject, and sender address. The product lists support for Exchange Server 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019, and can migrate mailbox data directly to live Exchange Server or Office 365 without an Outlook dependency. The vendor says exports retain folder hierarchy, formatting, and Unicode characters. For migration, it lists OAuth 2.0 and TLS, says credentials and migration data are not stored on its servers, and says locally stored incremental-migration metadata is encrypted with AES 256-bit encryption. The trial is limited to 30 items per folder for export, migration, and backup. The Personal Edition is listed at $99, paid once with a lifetime license; Corporate Premium is $249, paid once and Technical Edition is $359, paid once.

Recovery Toolbox for Outlook restores mailbox items from damaged PST and OST files, including email, contacts, calendars and attachments. It supports ANSI PST files from Outlook 97 through XP and Unicode PST files from Outlook 2007 onward, including Outlook 2016, 2019, 2021, 2024 and Microsoft 365. Converter mode can export OST data to PST or extract it into MSG, EML, VCF or TXT files. The software can read password-protected and encrypted files, even when encrypted and unencrypted data are mixed. Recovered mailboxes can be divided into user-defined PST files to address the legacy 2 GB ANSI limit. The demo allows users to preview recovered items and save up to five objects per folder. The full Windows version recovers files offline; a browser service is available on Windows, iOS, macOS and Android. Uploaded files are removed from that service after 30 days. It has no PST/OST size limit, charges by the original file's gigabytes, and requires payment before the recovered PST can be downloaded. Personal License costs $39 as a one-time purchase.
