Top methods to convert Office 365 to PST?

If you need to export Office 365 emails to PST file, there are manual and professional methods for manual and you'll need to use Microsoft Outlook's built-in Import/Export feature. First, ensure Outlook is connected to your Office 365 account and all folders are synced fully. Next go to File > Open & Export > Import/Export, select "Export to a file," and then "Outlook Data File (.pst)." Next select the mailbox folders to export, determine where to save the PST file, and click Finish to complete the export.

Manual export of PST is quite disadvantageous in that it takes a long time—particularly in the case of large mailboxes—and has to be tracked in real time. Also, Outlook will be hard-pressed with PSTs greater than 50GB, and older versions have even stricter size constraints and lots more.

Users always complain about the above-mentioned manual steps. According to the increased needs of the user, DRS Softech Export Office 365 to PST is the best solution to export Office 365 mailboxes to PST / EML / MSG / MBOX / PDF format with ease without facing any technical or non-technical issues.

In addition, Office 365 users can export own and archive mailboxes through an Admin account. Since Admin Impersonation enables download of Office 365, primary, archive, and shared mailboxes into PST and other file formats, the software does not compromise the integrity of the data but ensures data integrity during the process.

Additionally, a user can execute this software on any window operating system version, such as the newly released Windows 11.

 You can convert Office 365 emails to PST manually by using Outlook’s export feature (File > Open & Export > Import/Export > Export to a PST file). Drawbacks: This method is slow, requires Outlook installation, and may fail for large or corrupted mailboxes. For a better solution, try DRS Softech Export Microsoft 365 to PST Tool—it offers fast bulk exports, no Outlook dependency, intact folder structure, and error-free conversions even for large mailboxes.

 When you use the professional tool to back up Office 365 Contacts, it will take a few steps to export your contacts. I recently used a MacSonik Office 365 Backup Tool to export the data from MS O365. This tool can migrate Office 365 to PST, PDF, MSG, MBOX, and more. Also, you can migrate your office to Gmail and different email clients like G Suite or Google Workspace, IMAP, etc. This tool is capable of migrating emails with or without attachments. Additionally, you can run this software on both Mac and Windows OS versions.
