TheBrain vs ConnectedText

I have a big project to tackle which will involve analysis and understanding complex regulations from many government agencies governing health care. I am very familiar with TheBrain and would like to use this tool. Some of the sources are quite lengthy though. While I currently do not make extensive use of notes, I think I will have to capture the regulations as notes. Others have complained that notes do not work reliably in TheBrain. Is this the case with the version I have (7.0.4.5)? I know I can use attachments, but for the workflow I have in mind, notes are better.

On the other hand, there is ConnectedText. I purchased the latest version and would have to learn how best to use it. Dr. Andus’ praise of this tool caused me to reconsider. Would this be a better option?

You can stop laughing, Dr. Andus.
