OST4 Converter Tools

Those who use Microsoft Outlook for their email related activities, agenda or calendar entries, might sometimes stumble upon the necessity of converting such files to other formats, such as PST. Now, there are hundreds of programs out there that offer this feature, and one of them is OST4 Converter Tools. Combining a minimalist layout with support for exporting to multiple formats it promises an efficient and clutter-free approach to those in need of an OST converter. Or does it?

Most programs that offer OST conversion functionality will carry a classic layout, which will allow users to both view the folder tree structure of the file, as well as a more detailed, individual contents preview. OST4 Converter Tools is no different in that regard.

Selecting the internal file structure will allow users to browse the contents and the initial import process is quite straightforward, simple enough even for those who lack any experience in OST file handling.

One of the features that could help improve this application’s limited functionality and tool set is the fact that the conversion process is provided for several file formats. Thus, besides the default, PST format, one can also select MBOX, EML, MSG, vCal, EMLX or even vCard.

Considering its basic and quite limited characteristics, both in terms of actual design or feature set, this app doesn’t distinguish itself so much in its respective category.

This program could prove to be a fair choice for those who need a basic tool to help them manage their OST files and convert them to other formats, for interoperability. Nevertheless, providing limited functionality and carrying an inherent minimalism, it might not suffice the demands of more advanced users.
