Gotta give credit where credit is due

If I'm being honest, I have to admit that I've been pretty hard on Stellar over the past few years. On top of my issues where every recovery program of theirs that I have tried, up to now, generally shows good results in the demo, but after I purchase the program and spend a day or two fighting to get the license to work, the recovery results end up being a bust.
On top of bad past experiences with their software being sub par, I've also been greatly annoyed with people constantly spamming my forum, trying to promote various Stellar data recovery programs.
This past week, I thought I blew money onto another one of their products and was about to let a client down. I had tried the demo product of both Stellar and a competing product by Kernel. In this case, the Kernel data recovery program wouldn't even allow me to scan the clone, let alone find the HTFS file system while Stellar didn't even need to scan the drive. But, when I went to activate, their system didn't work and all the numbers provided by their application were not in service and even the toll free number on their site didn't work. It was only after starting an online chat was I able to get phone numbers that worked and after an hour on the phone, we were in business and all the client's data was recovered.
So, there you have it. I can verify that at least one Stellar data recovery program works as advertised.
I'm not ready to endorse the company yet. But, I am a little warmer to them today than I was last week.
