Thanks Tarek for the review, enjoyed reading it.
I can say few pros, cons of the Forensic version:
Pros
Decryption of FDE such as BitLocker, TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt
MS Windows Server versions
Lotus Notes support which is hard to find in similar program
Cons
Extremely high price for both the product as well as renewal. Infact 1year renewal price is almost 50% of the Product price. Very costly.

Very nice and in-depth review from tarekma7 !
Passware Kit is a complete password recovery and e-discovery solution which can help you decrypt and obtain passwords from almost any file and website.
Passware Kit Forensic not only helps you recover passwords from protected files, but also enables you to search for them on your computer.

Thank you for the detailed review. I have experience using an older version of Passware Kit Standard and I can tell it is my favorite password recovery solution. Decrypting BitLocker volumes is a feature that might turn to be really needful since more and more often it is used to encrypt Windows 10 Pro hard drives on new PC's and notebooks. Unfortunately it is not available in the Standard edition. What I think is missing in Passware Kit is hash (MD5, SHA1, MYSQL, etc.) cracking functionality - something similar to John The Ripper for example that can crack plain text list of hashes using brute-force or predefined dictionary attacks.
