Conclusion
Microsoft Exchange Server is one of the most coveted and trustworthy servers. However, Exchange Server often experiences issues, like database corruption, which may occur due to hardware/software failure, human errors, and accidental shutdown, among others. In such a scenario, you can use backups or built-in tools, like EseUtil, to recover the database.
However, they may not be considered failsafe as there is a risk of data loss. Using a third-party tool, especially Stellar Repair for Exchange, is the best solution to keep mail communication up and running. This tool comes with a host of features that help you to extract the contents from a corrupted database and export it to PST and other formats or directly to a live Exchange Server.
