AccessFIX for Windows

User Reviews

• This product Saved me.

  HansioliApril 24, 2013

  Pros

  The software did recover all of the form module code, at least a couple thousand lines of code. Recovered all forms that I had added since my last backup.

  Cons

  The basic module wasn't recovered so I had to resort to a backup of the datafile and re-write a function that wasn't in the backup. I couldn't get the forms to compile in the recovered database.

  Summary

  I hand copied the recovred form module code and made new forms in a new database and was good to go. I would have been in big trouble without this software. I would have lost about 60 hours of work if the file hadn't been recovered. Thanks again AccessFIX.

• Excellent software

  dcfernandezJanuary 12, 2011

  Pros

  It works nicely, the user interface is elegant, it recovers forms, reports & visual basic. It recovers also deleted records and tables conveniently. The preview of the free version is very complete. A solid solution.

  Cons

  The price is a little high, but it all depends on how much you value your data. The hours worth of work recovered make it actually not that bad for me.

• Database recovery completed with AccessFIX

  ChatmaxxNovember 19, 2010

  Pros

  Easy to use, all the data was restored, and a flawless output file.

  Cons

  It is an expensive program, but you can contact them and ask for a discount code and they will provide, compared to similar programs it has a good price versus quality of the results ratio.

  Summary

  This is the only software download I found that completely restored all the data from my corrupt database. A virus rendered database and excel files useless. I am very lucky I found it. It sounds cheesy but I owe these people.

• Did not see my corrupted form

  trevorwilliams2November 18, 2009

  Pros

  Shows items that might be damaged.

  Cons

  Trial will not fix any database objects. It would be nice to see how it performs on a limited basis.

  Summary

  No way of telling if it really works / justifying the $250 + price on it. Cimaware would probably make more by selling cheaper session based use of the product. I would pay $30 if it could recover my damaged form. Guess I'll have to rebuild it the slow way, but better then spending $250.

• I bought it and it works

  glennMHFebruary 19, 2008

  Pros

  I never post comments in software sites but this time I had to becuase I thought the previous one is extremely unfare. I'll start with how the product works. Now this is my personal opinion but I think I know what I'm talking about. I've been a developer for almost 15 years and I often buy software online. For starters this Access fix is the only software of the 4 that I tried that recovered every type of field in my corrupt database. That should tell you something. The referential integrity of the file was also recovered (none of the others could do that as far as I could tell from their documentation). One important detail is that although some other applications recovered field contents, with this program they were not changed up as it did happen with all the rest. A clever feature is the possibility to recover deleted tables and deleted records. I didn't see this feature in other programs and this gives the program a serious added value for future use. As for customer service I got an email back from these guys answering all my questions and offering me a discount code. I have a feeling they will offer that to any potential customer that contacts them by the way. I ended up buying it at a reasonable price considering I got a weeks worth of work back. I inquired about their return policy and they simply told me that if I was not satisfied I'd get my money back. It wasn't the case. So there's my two cents!
