However this program shows great promise. This may well be a good program when they get it finished but at the moment it is a beta test version being sold as a finished product. I don’t know how easy it is to use so I will not pass any judgements but it’s probably worth taking a look. It supports spreadsheets as one of its document types. This is a two pane organiser with a very colourful user interface.
NOTECASE PRO REVIEW TRIAL
I have never used this program, not even the free trial version but it looks good on their website.
NOTECASE PRO REVIEW FULL VERSION
If you click on one it brings up a dialog box telling you that you need to buy the full version to use this feature. There is a free version of this program with a lot of the facilities disabled, but annoyingly the menu entries and buttons for these parts of the program are still there. The user interface feels like it was designed by someone who never had to use the program. There are many facilities but a lot of them are well hidden in the interface, this makes it awkward and tiresome to use, but it does tick the box in the list of features in the advertising. It supports spreadsheets as one of the types of document instead of just text documents. The note taking section is not as good as some of the note taking programs in this list but note taking is not the primary purpose of this program.
NOTECASE PRO REVIEW ANDROID
It is also available for various platforms, there is an android and iOS version available, the different versions can share data. There are no keywords or tags but there are a limited number of categories (editable) which may be assigned to all types of items. This is an E-mail program with a calendar and reminders, it has tasks which may be given deadlines and it also has a hierarchical note taking section. It has little to recommend it over MyInfo or Ultra Recall except for the price. Editing is a little awkward as you have to switch between edit mode and view mode. It does have tags (keywords) but it feels like they were added as an afterthought. This is a classic two pane organiser with a hierarchical tree. The metadata is the same for all items in the database but multiple databases with different data sets and different metadata may be open simultaneously. It can handle very large amounts of data without a slow down in either the navigation or searching, but the opening of a large file does slow down. Tagging/Keywords are much easier to use and searching is easier. This is a powerful note taking program with a lot of facilities, it is not quite as powerful as Ultra Recall but it is more user friendly. A full review is here.Īlthough Ultra Recall is very powerful I can’t help feeling that this is a program which keeps adding feature upon feature until the simple things you used to do are no longer simple, and the whole thing starts to feel overwhelming. Arbitrary metadata may be associated with any item in the database. It can handle very large amounts of data without a slow down in either the navigation or searching. This is a very powerful note taking program with a lot of facilities. If I wanted a Wiki then Connected Text is the tool I would use.įor drawing concept maps, organisation charts and just laying out ideas graphically to sort out my thoughts VUE is the tool which I use, for mind maps I use Freeplane.
This blog post is being composed in MyInfo.įor serious writing Scrivener is unrivalled. I ought to be using Ultra Recall but the program I find myself using on a day to day basis for general organisation tasks is MyInfo simply because its easier. Ultra Recall is more powerful and is probably the one I should be using but MyInfo has a better user interface and although it is not as powerful it is easier to use and the information you want is easier to find in MyInfo. Out of all the note taking programs which I have tried Ultra Recall and MyInfo are undoubtedly my favourites. The prices were correct in October 2014, after that they may change. Some are free and almost all the others have a free trial period. Not being on the list doesn’t mean anything either, it only means I must have missed it. I haven’t even tried many of them so being on this list is not an endorsement it just means they exist. This is just a list, these are not reviews, just a few remarks on my impressions of the program. This is a list of all the information tools I could have found in my search for the perfect note taking program.
I have not posted in a while (I’ve been busy) so I decided to do something special.
