It also ruled for a long duration, and it had a monopoly at some point in time in the email client niche. However, as technology changes rapidly, more players are jumping into the market to offer attractive products at affordable pricing.<\/p>\n<p>Outlook is a great example of it, and one of the factors because it has Microsoft&#8217;s name under its belt. Now many organizations are now looking to switch from Lotus Notes to Outlook, which directly increases the query to convert NSF to PST files. In this blog, we will touch upon the manual solution and third-party NSF to PST converter that simplify the whole process so that a novice user can easily understand them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition, this write-up ends with explaining the merits over the conventional conversion approach that will be beneficial for users to make their work simpler.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why are users approaching towards the NSF to PST Conversion? Reasons Explained\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Pricing &amp; Maintenance Cost Factor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Before jumping to the conclusion, maximum users have the price factor in mind while approaching to purchase an email client. Outlook comes with Office 365, while users need to separately purchase Lotus Notes, which is way costlier than Outlook. Also, the cost of maintaining Lotus Notes is higher, which contributes most to converting NSF to PST files.<\/p>\n<p><strong>User-Interface<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many users find it difficult to navigate into Lotus Notes whereas Outlook has a much more user-friendly interface making the work easier for users. If users are well-versed in the utility function, it becomes easier for them to complete their work more quickly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Capability to Run Multiple Profiles Simultaneously<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lotus Notes does not allow users to run the different multiple profiles\/accounts at the same time. Still, on the other hand, Outlook is quite efficient in handling multiple profiles simultaneously. It is among the important consideration for the user to move to Outlook.<\/p>\n<p>These above-listed differences make clear why users are moving to Outlook from the Lotus Notes email client. However, now we\u2019ll approach towards the solution which can make users <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shoviv.com\/blog\/how-to-convert-nsf-to-pst\/\">convert NSF to PST<\/a><\/strong>, which includes the manual conversion methods and the third-party NSF converter tool.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How do Manual Methods make it possible to make NSF file to PST file conversion?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Users can take the help of manual methods to make the conversion, but it will not be a way ride because users need to go through a long process for the conversion. We have shared the process briefly, which involves the two-phase conversion. Go through the procedure and make sure to implement it to complete the NSF to PST conversion task:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1st Phase of Conversion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Open the IBM Notes, now click on the File, explore the menu and select open. Choose the IBM Notes application.<\/li>\n<li>Using the Look in, look for the desired NSF file. After selecting them, click on the Open button.<\/li>\n<li>Again go to the File menu and select the Export option.<\/li>\n<li>Now mention the name for the resultant file, and choose the file type as Comma Separated Value (<strong>CSV<\/strong>). Select the target destination to store the resultant CSV file.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Select the required option and click on the Ok button to move ahead.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, click on the Ok button to start the export process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>2nd Phase of the Process to Convert NSF to PST<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Once you get the CSV file containing the Lotus Notes&#8217; data, you need to import them safely into Outlook. Follow the steps mentioned below to complete the conversion.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Open the Outlook account, and select the File tap. Select the Open &amp; Export option.<\/li>\n<li>Now choose the Import\/Export option to move further.<\/li>\n<li>Import &amp; Export wizard will appear on the screen. Pick the Import from another program or file option. Click the Next button to go to the next procedure.<\/li>\n<li>Select the Comma Separated Value from the file type wizard, and click on next to continue.<\/li>\n<li>After that, locate the CSV file using the browse button. Users also need to select any one option from the listed three options. Click on the next button to go for further processing.<\/li>\n<li>Choose the destination folder to save the Output file and click on Next.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You have seen how you can apply the above-listed method to convert NSF to PST, but the main issues that many users will face while using this approach include the chance of a minor mistake.
