MyInfo Is My Choice 1/26/2025

I agree about MyInfo 100! It's as though RightNote and UltraRecall has a baby and added great features from InfoQube to boot. Everyone knows about the inline columns, which are brilliant, but there ...

MyInfo 8 - New review 4/19/2024

So I emailed Petko, and after a brief conversation I realized that there is no need for a note tree saved search! MyInfo 8 has "Filters" and "Perspectives", which handle all the example use cases I ...

MyInfo 8 - New review 4/17/2024

I realized that MyInfo 8 does indeed have saved searches, which are pinned under Global Search. These include logical operators, as well as access to any and all attributes! The only thing missing ...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 4/12/2024

Dormouse, I agree with your points 100%. I wished I had seen your post 20 years ago and found MyInfo! The folgezettel method of child notes is very natural. My mistake was in worrying about the exact...

MyInfo 8 - New review 4/12/2024

Daly, thanks for your comments! Indeed, I neglected to emphasize the power of MyInfo's columns. When the program added them (in Version 6 I believe) is the time I first looked at it. However, having...

MyInfo 8 - New review 4/11/2024

After much deliberation and experimentation with LogSeq and Obsidian, I've decided to go back to a more traditional outliner. They allow me to view a much larger amount of information. They also can s...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 4/11/2024

Sometimes the only solution is not to play. I realized that Logseq was not operating as I wanted it to, namely putting two links in one block would not link them together, but rather link each to th...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 3/15/2024

Hi, yes thanks I saw metafolders in a post on the Obsidian forums. I'm a bit wary of replying on 3rd party plug-ins for my methodology. Also, I am just not sure I want to have to have an organization...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 3/15/2024

Wow, thanks @tberni the saved queries are indeed an amazing and powerful feature of Logseq! It's really akin to UltraRecall "Saved searches", Zoot "Smart folders" or InfoQube grid criteria. I'm still...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 3/14/2024

Thanks, that's great to hear! I tried the Logseq Contents as they intend it, ie. [[]] for topics which are simply tags with the #. It works very well to automatically create a cross-referenced knowl...

Obsidian vs Logseq conundrum 3/14/2024

I decided at long last to go with Obsidian. But there is something missing. Namely, linking to some concept, and then clicking it to make a page gives an empty page. On Logseq, the relevant linked bl...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 3/7/2024

I also strongly considered Logseq. It was a close call as I generally prefer block structure and a more simple approach. However, I do want to include an ample amount of free form information and l...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 3/5/2024

I totally changed my mind on this. I'm going back to Obsidian. Heptabase is great for organizing info for a huge knowledge manager. But they don't seem interested in Zotero integration, lack multi-t...

Sunsama - Digital daily planner 11/27/2023

Maybe a bit of a false alarm. It's great for weekly planning, but has no long term processes (yearly, quarterly). I will likely wait until it integrates those features.

Sunsama - Digital daily planner 11/22/2023

In my workflow, Heptabase has replaced almost everything except email, for which I use Outlook plus NeoPro (which gives a much more powerful interface). The natural gap is in todos/planning/project ma...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 11/16/2023

I've been using Heptabase for a while now, and I think it checks all boxes. Except for email and a proper calendar, ie. Outlook. They have added some more powerful features, such as the ability to ad...

Taskline plus Close Contact 11/10/2023

I just received an email from ResultsWare that due to low sales, both Taskline and Close Contact are now becoming free, unsupported products. This is a shame for the company, as they are great addins...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 9/14/2023

Okay, I have to disagree with Export being weak. If you click the settings icon, and "Export now", you get a zip with all cards as markdown, the whiteboard structure, etc. The database stuff appears...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 9/14/2023

Indeed, Heptabase just clicked for me in a way that addressed about 95% of my CRIMP symptoms. The visual organization, multiple nested whiteboards, recent whiteboards/cards at left, linking, PDF handl...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 9/11/2023

There are a lot of pros to that style of organization, ie. each bullet point or info item (InfoQube) being independent. Also, tools like Zoot or InfoQube (even UltraRecall) are enormously powerful in ...

Heptabase - Crimp cured? 9/11/2023

Hi, so I have/had licenses to many "outliners", and have tried the following as full-term solutions: KeyNote, Maple Professional, MyBase, EPim, InfoQube, Zoot, OneNote, UltraRecall, RightNote, Watersh...

Heptabase early bird discount ending tomorrow 9/8/2023

Now I see that "Sections" can go at least 7 levels deep, and probably are unlimited. So remove that nitpick. This software is just amazing.

Heptabase early bird discount ending tomorrow 9/8/2023

Thanks, this program is absolutely sensational. I'll post in the other thread, but this is the one I've been looking for! The visual organization is the key for me, and whiteboards/cards are very we...

Recommendations on the "new" generation of outliners? 8/30/2023

After a lot of consideration, I realized I would like something visual. From project planning to research to company docs, I just like seeing the overview. Otherwise, current 3-panes such as UltraRec...

Recommendations on the "new" generation of outliners? 7/21/2023

So just to narrow it down, I'm considering: LogSeq Anytype Obsidian Capacities All four of these seem like the "best" app of its type when I look into each individually. I'm a privacy and local sto...
