Let the buyer beware! [Posted on 2006-08-18]
I loaded "Recover Lost Data - StompSoft ware" onto my healthy C:drive. I wanted to recover data from a USB jumpdrive. The software came with an instruction manual in pdf format on the CD. When I attempted to access the instructions the computer continually shutdown and automatically restarted. The technical support from StompSoft after 7 days had not responded to my service request. It cost me $95 for a local IT person to reinstall WindowsXP and delete this software. It took me an additional 5 hours to reinstall the rest of my software.

Thank God For Stompsoft [Posted on 2006-09-03]
I was working on a huge client project last month. My son borrowed my laptop an somehow the file got "lost". I used Recover Lost Data and saved myself hours of headaches and humiliation. Works like a charm!

Recovers my deleted emails [Posted on 2006-09-15]
I had about a weeks worth of emails that I needed to restore from Outlook. I decided to go with Recover Lost Data since I've been more than happy with Stompsoft's PC Backup program.

There was an feature in Recover Lost Data to reconstruct my Outlook database which did just that. Upon opening Outlook I found the emails back in my Inbox and Deleted Items folders. Great product.

StompSoft (MIGO) Recover Lost Data [Posted on 2007-09-01]
StompSoft is now MIGO so don't get confused. There are some StompSoft haters out there but my initial experience with this product indicates the warnings against StompSoft/MIGO may be unwarranted. I bought this product to salvage an unintentional "FORMAT" (different story involving LINUX) on a WIN98SE drive. The packaging clearly stated that WIN98 was a supported platform for this task. However during setup the dialog box informed me otherwise and the software would not install properly.
When I called technical support they answered promptly. The tech was surprised but recognized the box was incorrect and that I had the wrong disk. He sent me an email with a password and the address to a protected FTP site. I was able to download the correct software easily and set it up on my system.
The software works as advertised as well as educating you about the pitfalls associated with data recovery. I was able to recover many important files. But there were many others that even though they had been recovered; they were in an unusable format.
Everything in life is on a continuum. The price is great for this product but it will not perform as well as the $400-$1000 products that I researched before making this purchase. I was not disappointed in its performance and in the meantime experienced some very good customer care.
As long as you don't expect miracles, you should keep this software handy for emergencies.

Absolutely useless [Posted on 2008-02-11]
Terrible company to do business with. Going through Amizon I thought this would be a reputable company to do business with. They provide a telephone number for assistance which then tells you the number has been changes. No problem.......but then you call that number and you are unable to speak to a person. I have submitted several e-mail attempts to obtain help and they did respond but unfortunately it was a generic computer generated response.
I wish I could send this useless software back.........or better yet... I could receive some assistance and be satisfied.....
Thanks for reading this poor review.
