I recently used the Softaken OLM to PST Converter while looking for ways to transfer Outlook for Mac mailbox data to Windows Outlook. The preview option is useful because it lets users check their mailbox content before conversion. The ability to select specific folders is also helpful when users don't need to transfer the entire mailbox. Overall, it seems like an easy option for me, as I am looking for a simple conversion solution.
