I have been examining a bunch of programs of this type for the past couple of years. To my mind, they are more free form databases with hierarchical structure than actual outlining programs. These programs range from the free, and quite useful little program called Treepad (http://www.treepad.com), to more complex programs saturated with bells and whistles, such as InfoSellect (http://www.miclog.com) and InfoRecall (http://www.phantech.com). I think ActionOutline falls somewhere in the middle. All these programs are useful in their own ways, but none of them have given me the outlining functionality of Grandview. If anyone in Outliners.Com land has found that these programs do work well for true outlining, I’d love to hear about it. I might just be approaching the situation with the wrong outlook. Thanks.
