I tried it and immediately fell in love! It was so easy to use! After a couple conversions I bought the guys a cup of coffee. A couple more and decided this was too good to abuse! I joined! My life is so much easier!
TillieI had a huge, problematic file to convert that couldn't go through the usual automated conversion process. The Zamzar team responded quickly to my request for help, and they took the extra steps needed to do it manually.
PDinSFUsed it for over a year to convert my bank statements to csv files. Great quick app, increased my productivity a lot. Also, amazing support - always helped me quickly!
Agata WierzbickaI've used this product for years. And customer service is excellent. Just had an issue where I was charged and I didn't agree with the charge and they took care of it, even though they didn't have to.
JHI have been so thankful for Zamzar’s support from the beginning of the Pandemic to the present day. Their service is first rate & their helpfulness is always the best it could be.
MaryA very useful and professional site. The service is easy to use and the administrators are helpful and courteous.
David SheltonIt’s my first time using it. I had some complications doing it. I’m not very good at this. But I wrote to the company and I had a lot of help. I’m satisfied with customer service and with the app.
Ana SuárezGreat thanks to you all for helping me to get the OLD files converted correctly. 20 years, quite a long time, reviewing the files brings much memory to me. That's the best gift I received last year. Thank you all again.
Jiunn-Ru LaiI feel like Zamzar is an active team member, especially for projects that I work on where I am the workhorse and it saves so much time and frustration. I am spoiled with Zamzar, because they have set the bar for file conversion and customer service very high.
Deborah HermanFantastic service! My mom's computer died and she has 1000+ Word Perfect files she wants to keep for some reason. Since Word Perfect is basically dead, I decided to convert all her files. Zamzar's converter was perfect.

WAV Audio Format WAV Converter
A WAV file also goes by the name of a WAVE or Waveform audio file. The WAV file is one of the oldest types of audio file in existence today and was developed by Microsoft and IBM. Despite being developed in 1991, it is still a popular file format today.
Part of the appeal of WAV files is that they’re exceptionally high quality because they are uncompressed and lossless. WAV uses PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) to encode the audio data by segmenting it into small pieces, and does so without any compression; this means the process doesn’t impact the audio quality in any way.
WAV files are used by musicians to record music, with this format providing a much richer sound than other compressed file formats. Unsurprisingly, WAV files tend to be large in size because they’ve not been compressed in any way - they are typically over ten times the size of an MP3 file.
WAV files can be opened by almost all audio programs, mainly because they’ve been around for over thirty years and because they’re so widely respected.

WMA Audio Format WMA Converter
A WMA file goes by the full name of a Windows Media Audio file. After the MP3 file saw widespread success, Apple retaliated by creating the AAC file. Keen to not get left behind, Microsoft developed the WMA file in 1999 in response to those two file formats. Unlike the MP3 and AAC formats, the WMA format used lossy compression. This meant that files were small in size but the audio wasn't as high quality as in its raw form, or as high quality as the audio found in MP3 and AAC files.
In recent years, the WMA format has been further developed so that it now supports lossless surround sound, giving it a slight niche, certainly over the other formats mentioned. However, the WMA file is still not as widely used as its two rivals.
Microsoft Windows Media Player can play WMA files, but other programs tend to require the download of additional plugins before being able to play a WMA file.
