Reviews From Admins Who Migrated NSF Files
Ratings collected on pcvita.com.
Our organization was looking to perform HCL Domino to Office 365 migration due to its complicated user interface. After some research, I got this software. I first used the demo version of it and after using it, I was amazed that the complete migration process is so easy to execute. Thanks to the developers!
We had so many Lotus Notes files which we decided to move to O365 platform. The size of mailbox was large too, therefore we were looking for a solution using which we could perform the conversion conveniently. But, this IBM Notes to Office 365 converter made the entire process really efficient and we exported all our mailbox data with ease.
We were in a complicated situation when our technical manager gave the responsibility to transfer NSF files to Office 365. Then, one of our colleagues suggested us to try this Lotus Notes to Office 365 migration software. And, after using this tool, we realised that the export process is not that difficult. The entire task was completed in countable minutes.
