Passware Kit Enterprise 8.1 build 2753

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Robust and versatile, Passware Kit Enterprise lacks only an integrated program interface. Instead, a group of standalone utilities are installed to perform a variety of tasks. Fortunately, each of the components is straightforward, allowing you to simply drag and drop files to the program window to begin. The utilities performed well in our tests, cracking a ZIP archive in 10 seconds flat. For more challenging searches, Xieve technology lets you skip nonsense character combinations, and the dictionary search can consider variants with up to two misspellings. You also can prioritize processes to minimize drag on your system. Home users aren't likely to need all the advanced functions here, so Passware Kit Enterprise is more appropriate for support specialists, especially given the price tag.
