Novell GroupWise is a popular messaging platform among professional and home users. It supports features such as emails, instant messaging, document management, task management, calendaring, etc. However, GroupWise has a few shortcomings, such as it’s extremely difficult to debug or resolve issues. In most cases, a GroupWise user has to face significant data loss. Besides, it often crashes due to mishandled internal settings, does not support shared folders, and features a quite basic user interface.
Thus, many GroupWise users want to migrate their emails to MS Outlook or Office 365 due to its user-friendly interface, stable performance, and advanced features. However, to migrate GroupWise to Outlook or Office 365, you need to extract the mailbox items, such as emails, attachments, notes, contacts, etc., from GroupWise and then convert it to Outlook importable PST format. PST or Personal Storage Table (also known as Personal Folder File) is a data file used by MS Outlook to store mailbox data.
The most efficient way to convert GroupWise mailbox to Outlook PST file is to use a reliable GroupWise to PST converter tool, such as Stellar Converter for GroupWise. In this post, we discussed the use and benefits of this tool and how you can use it to migrate from GroupWise to MS Outlook, Office 365, backup GroupWise, or share GroupWise mails in multiple formats.
