Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery Review – This App Belongs in a Museum
Out of 5 Total Score
No. 9 Among all macOS solutions
Data recovery software applications that promise to recover lost files for free are in high demand and short supply, and Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery is one of them. But can it deliver the same results as paid alternatives? This review has the answer to this question.
Top Pros
-
Free. Lazesoft Data Recovery is completely free.
-
Scans non-mounted disks. Can scan disks that refuse to be mounted by the operating system.
-
Selective scanning. It’s possible to scan only a certain range of disk sectors.
-
Recovery during scanning. You don’t have to wait for scanning to finish to recover your data.
-
Recovery chances. Lazesoft Data Recovery estimates how likely can found files be recovered without corruption.
-
Save sectors to a file. The application lets you save a specific range of sectors to a file for backup purposes.
Top Cons
-
Outdated. The latest version of macOS Lazesoft Data Recovery is compatible with is macOS Mojave 10.14.
-
Three default signatures. In the default scan settings, only three search signatures are selected. The program does not mention this anywhere.
-
Limited to 50 MB per file by default. By default, the signature scanning feature of Lazesoft Data Recovery looks only for files that are smaller than 50 MB. This behavior can be changed in the settings.
-
Limited maximum file size. The software’s signature scanning feature can’t find files that are larger than 9,000 MB.
-
Settings are not saved. Lazesoft Data Recovery resets to default settings every time you close it.
-
Mandatory scan type selection. The program does not automatically select the appropriate scan type.
-
Outdated user interface. The user interface of Lazesoft Data Recovery is extremely outdated, and it looks completely out of place in even relatively old version of macOS.
-
Doesn’t scan internal storage devices. It’s impossible to use Lazesoft Data Recovery to scan internal storage devices.
-
Limited file system support. The software can recognize only a handful of file systems (FAT, HFS, NTFS).
-
Limited file previews. The program can only preview images, and newer image file formats are not supported.
-
Signature scan activation. In order to activate the search for all the signatures, you must manually select the "partition recovery" scan type.
-
Bad signature scanner. The signature scanner doesn’t support newer file formats.
-
Recovery performance. Lazesoft Data Recovery delivers poor data recovery results when scanning all file systems except for NTFS. In most cases, the original folder structure and file names are lost.
-
Abandoned. The program has not been updated since about 2015.
-
Source selection. Choosing which device you want to scan is unnecessarily difficult.
-
Slow browsing. Folders with more than 10,000 files take a long time to open.
-
No session management. Lazesoft Data Recovery lacks scan session management features.
-
Processing of bad sectors. The program doesn’t see bad sectors, so it can’t avoid them when scanning.
-
S.M.A.R.T. Doesn’t come with a disk health monitoring feature.
-
Additional features. Lazesoft Data Recovery doesn’t include any additional features that would increase its value.
-
No automatic scan resume. The program can’t automatically resume a scan of a storage device that has been disconnected.

Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery – Overview
#A cursory look at a screenshot of Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery should be enough to tell you that the data recovery application comes from a bygone era. Indeed, the last version was released in 2015, and Lazesoft hasn’t released a single update since then. As a result, the software no longer runs on the latest version of macOS, with macOS Mojave 10.14 being the last compatible version.
Pricing
| Distributed as | Freeware All features are provided free of charge without any limitations |
| Trial version available | |
| License model | Lifetime |
| No credit card to try |
The main reason why Lazesoft Data Recovery still gets plenty of attention despite being so outdated is its free price. Unlike many other data recovery software applications that claim to be free even though they are limited in all kinds of ways, Lazesoft Data Recovery can truly recover an unlimited amount of data free of charge.
Developer — Lazesoft
Lazesoft has been developing software since 2009, and the company is headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Besides its data recovery application for Mac, Lazesofs offers the same application for Windows, and it also has several other software products, most of which belong in the data recovery category.

We respect that Lazesoft provides customer support both via email and phone. There are several much larger companies in the data recovery industry that don’t do that, and they definitely should. Lazesoft does have social media accounts, but it uses them mainly to announce updates.
Data Recovery with Lazesoft for macOS
Tested on: macOS 10.14.6 (18G9323)
A completely free data recovery software application like Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery can still be next to useless if it’s unable to deliver good results, and that’s exactly what our in-depth testing process is here to discover.
How We Test
Here at Pandora Data Recovery Review, we don't just "play" with the software we test for a while before we write down our impressions. Instead, we apply our comprehensive testing process to gather heaps of data that objectively reveal all strengths and weaknesses of the tested software.
| # | Step | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Installation | The best data recovery software can be installed quickly and easily. If the software requires special permissions, detailed instructions are provided to the user. |
| 2 | Source selection | The selection of the storage device you want to scan should be intuitive, and the same goes for the selection of the scanning method. |
| 3 | Scanning process | Since it can take a long time for scanning to finish, the software should keep the user informed from start to finish. |
| 4 | Managing found data | A capable data recovery software application can typically find many lost files, so it should provide scan results filters and other features that make it easier to go through them. For example, it's always useful when data recovery software can preview files before their recovery. |
| 5 | Recovery and post-processing | The software should make it easy to select a suitable recovery destination and stop the user from accidentally recovering data to the original storage device. |
As we perform these steps, we collect data and take notes, which we then present and summarize in our in-depth reviews, such as this one.
Installation
The installation of Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery is straightforward. First, we downloaded the application installer from the official website. Then we launched the installer and dragged the Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery app icon into the Applications folder. Done!
Unfortunately, we couldn't use the latest version of macOS because Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery doesn't run on anything newer than macOS Mojave 10.14. In fact, Mojave isn't even the last officially supported version of macOS—that would be Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks (released in 2013).
Source selection
Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery has an outdated user interface that leaves a lot to be desired in terms of usability, and the source selection process is a great example of how the software can complicate something that should be simple.
Instead of simply selecting the storage device you want to scan and clicking a single button to start the scan process, you have to go through an entire scan wizard and make several important choices—none of which are explained as well as they should be. The worst issue by far is the fact that the application doesn't scan all supported file signatures by default, and you have to enable them manually before each scan.
Scanning process
During scanning, Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery displays a progress bar with information about the number of found files. You can even browse found files in real-time, so you don't have to wait for scanning to finish before you can start looking for your missing files.
You can stop scanning at any time, but you can't pause the scanning process to temporarily free up system resources. Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery also doesn't display the amount of time remaining for scanning to finish.
Managing found files
Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery organizes found files according to their path and type. You can then apply filters to further narrow down the results and sort them according to name, size, path, modified date, created date, and file state. That's right, the software is able to evaluate the state of recoverable files to determine the likelihood of their successful recovery.
The most popular image file formats, such as JPG, PNG, and GIF, can be previewed directly inside Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery, but other file formats can be viewed only in their hexadecimal form. Folders that contain a huge number of files take a while to load, but this issue is unlikely to affect many users.
Recovery and post-processing
To conclude our real-world recovery test, we clicked the Save Files button, selected a recovery destination, and waited a short while for Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery to recover selected files. A pop-up window appeared to confirm that all data were successfully recovered.
Again, the outdated user interface left a lot to be desired in terms of usability and convenience, but that's a price many users are willing to pay to recover their data without spending a single dollar.

Karma
13 rating criteria
Our karma rating is based on multiple criteria that collectively reflect how well a software developer is taking care of its data recovery application and the people who use it. Unfortunately, Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery has received a very low rating because the application is abandoned and doesn’t run on the newest Macs.
It’s almost surprising then that Lazesoft still provides customer support via phone. Hopefully, the company will update Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery in the future and make it possible for the users of newer Macs to recover lost data for free, but we wouldn’t get our hopes up.

Usability
18 rating criteria
It’s clear that Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery has been designed with ease of use in mind. The only problem is that our usability expectations have increased massively since the last version of this data recovery application was released in 2015.
The user interface of Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery looks outdated, and it frequently contradicts our modern expectations of how a data recovery software application should behave. The resulting user experience is underwhelming to say the least.

Recovery performance
126 rating criteria
The recovery performance of Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery is underwhelming, to say the least.
Unsurprisingly, this has a lot to do with the fact that the application hasn’t been updated in a long time, so it doesn’t support many modern file formats.
As if to make the situation even worse, Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery doesn’t look for all supported signatures by default—you need to enable them manually each time you perform a scan.
| # | Feature | Result | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Deep scan | Bad | In addition to being unnecessarily complicated to use, Clever in-depth scan mode fails to produce decent results. |
| 2 | Quick scan | Bad | Quick scan mode fails to deliver praiseworthy data recovery results. |
| 3 | Other types of scan | Bad | No other scan types are supported by Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery except for partition recovery. |
| 4 | Device support | Fine | The software can recover data only from external storage devices. |
| 5 | Real-life recovery challenge | Bad | Our real-life recovery challenges turned out to be too challenging for Lazesoft. |
| 6 | Other notable recovery features | Bad | Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery doesn't come with any other notable recovery features. |

| 2 | APFS partitions | |
| 3 | FAT32 partitions | |
| 4 | exFAT partitions | |
| 5 | NTFS partitions | |
| 6 | EXT4 partitions |
Unless you’re recovering lost data from an NTFS-formatted storage device, don’t expect the application to recover the original folder structure and file names. And if you need to recover data from an APFS, exFAT, or EXT4 partition, then you might as well use a different data recovery software tool.

| 2 | APFS partitions | |
| 3 | FAT32 partitions | |

Again, Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery can deliver decent results only when scanning NTFS partitions.

| 5 | Scan for lost partitions | |
| 6 | HFS+ directory rebuild | |

Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery can scan for lost partitions, but it often struggles to recover data from them.

| 9 | Recovery from RAID1, 0, JBOD | |
| 10 | Encrypted device support | |
| 11 | Unmountable partitions |
It seems that the developers of Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery focus exclusively on removable external storage devices, such as USB thumb drives and memory cards. Internal hard drives, mobile devices, and RAID arrays are not supported. Interestingly, the application can scan unmountable partitions.

While it’s perfectly understandable that a free data recovery software application isn’t as feature-packed as its paid alternatives, it would be nice to see at least some additional features beyond those directly related to data recovery.

“Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery” needs to be updated - is the response I got when I installed and attempted to run ''Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery 2.2'' on ''macOS Catalina 11.15.7''. Even though the software is expected to run on macOS 10.5 or later version.
In my testing, I had to restart the app in order to identify the USB stick that I inserted after launching Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery. Hence, the program doesn't list devices that were connected to your Mac after the app was opened.
The application also lacks an option to scan individual folders.
Bottom line
Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery could have been an excellent free data recovery software application for Mac if it were not abandoned by its developers. Because it was, its data recovery performance leaves a lot to be desired, and the application doesn’t even run on the latest Macs anymore.
For these and other reasons, we can recommend Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery only to people who still cling to old Macs and don’t want to spend any money at all to recover lost data. Everyone else should consider the application to be a living museum exhibit.
