Problem

The reason of migration from Lotus Notes to MS Outlook was not all of sudden. German Sales Agency had few systems which were working on MS Outlook platforms, while most of the systems were Lotus Notes based. The other reason for cribbing out Lotus Platform was the maintenance cost and employees’ response. Upon calculations, it was found that the maintenance cost of Lotus Platform is much higher than Outlook. Finally, German Sales Agency decided to quit from Notes and head towards Outlook.

Solution

The idea of migration was based on quick accessibility and technical divergence features observed in Outlook platforms. German Sales Agency was not in condition to lose the data as there was no backup available. The client decided to take assistance of Kernel Data Recovery tool. As the tool was installed, the NSF folders falling in specific criteria were migrated to Outlook PST. The best feature was renaming of Outlook folders corresponding to Lotus Notes mailboxes. The huge sized mailboxes were migrated to PST in an effortless and effective manner.
