One of the MOST useful features i can think of for an information manager, is to be able to have the option to add (unlimited) custom attributes to the program!

So after hours and hours (and yes even more hours) of searching, let us here now finally compile the ultimate list of ALL available information management software that has this so much sought after feature called:

“custom attributes” aka. “custom fields” aka. “custom properties” aka. “metadata”, aka. “user-defined fields” (UDF). aka. “custom forms” etc.

So here therefore is my collection found so far, in the quest for finding the ultimate information manager.

NOTICE PLEASE:

1. the list below is not limited to strictly only “tree-outliners” as such, but includes on purpose basically ANY thinkable software that can be transformed to be used to manage both structured & unstructured information!

2. try to add if possible only software that provides “unlimited” custom attributes, and not like those with only 5 user fields and then no more.

3. if possible, the software should be “available” and not dead.

So here we go:
