EdbMails IMAP Migration Tool vs SysTools Email Migration Tool

EdbMails IMAP Migration Tool moves email and folders between IMAP servers, and supports transfers from IMAP to Office 365, Exchange Server or PST, as well as PST to IMAP. The Windows software lists providers including Gmail, GoDaddy, Rackspace, Zoho, Zimbra, IceWarp, cPanel, Yahoo Mail and Outlook.com. Users can choose folders and subfolders and filter mail by date, sender, attachments and AND/OR conditions. The maker says it preserves metadata, headers, folder structure, formatting and language encoding. Multiple mailboxes can be loaded from CSV, and separate installations can run migrations in parallel. Outlook is not required for IMAP-to-IMAP migration or Exchange-to-Office 365 moves. The maker says data and credentials are not stored on its servers and lists OAuth 2.0, TLS, AES 256-bit encryption for locally stored incremental-migration metadata and MFA support. A free trial is available, limited to 30 items from each folder. One-time plans cost 200.00 USD for 100 mailboxes, 299.00 USD for 1000 mailboxes, or 499.00 USD for unlimited mailboxes.

SysTools Email Migration Tool moves mailbox content between email platforms while retaining folder structure and message details. It can transfer emails, contacts, calendars, documents, and attachments; Office 365, Exchange, and G Suite are listed as example platforms. Users can filter by date range and choose which mailbox categories to transfer. The tool preserves email properties including read status, reply or forward flags, and sent or received timestamps. Bulk migration uses user fetching and CSV templates, with up to 20 transfers running in parallel. Retry and rerun options are available, along with downloadable summary and detailed CSV reports. The product page says transfers do not store data on intermediary servers, and supported Google and Microsoft platforms can use OAuth 2.0. A local database temporarily buffers data so a dropped internet connection can be restored without restarting the operation. The free demo fully migrates mailboxes for two user accounts. The Paid Version is listed at $35, paid once for five users; the page also notes pricing from $7/user.
