Awesome

I had to migrate 20GB email data spread across various PST files that were created from Outlook 2007. Since our Exchange server version was 2003, Office 2011 for Mac could not be used and only Entourage 2008 was supported. Since Entourage does not understand PST files, this became a big head-ache for me. After struggling to find a suitable solution for the past few days, finally I came across this App. There were many positive reviews about this and wanted to try it myself.
It is just awesome. Ability to use many PST files for merging into one Entourage archive is very handy. This way, I could combine many PST files and created one archive so that import operation is fairly easy on Entourage side. Really super fast, efficient and literally no crashes and errors. Worked flawlessly and even the import was a seemless process. Entourage did not complain at all.
Overall, very good job guys. Keep it up!!!
