TheBrain as file manager?
12/16/2013
Hi, Jorge,
I don't blame you for not wanting to spend $219 for TheBrain (TB) if you don't have to. However, in my view, you're not going to find a better solution (but I admit to not having a very th...
If you and your colleagues all have Microsoft Office installed on your computers, you probably all have access to OneNote. If so, ON can handle this pretty easily, I believe (I haven't tried it myself...
Good suggestion. Now when I paste the link, it shows as a link and opens Evernote to the note in question.

Okay, here are some updates related to EN, TheBrain and CT on Windows 7:
There seems no synergy at all between Evernote and CT. I couldn't drag a note into a CT topic. And when I tried to paste a URL...
I haven't tried it with CT and EN. I will do so on Monday, when I'm back in my office and let you know how it works.

I should add, this is the behavior on my MacBook. I have not tried it yet on my Windows PC at work.
I have never tried this before, but a little fooling around with the two apps reveals a couple of options. If you drag a note from your Evernote desktop application into TheBrain, it creates a link ba...
Greetings and welcome to the forum.
I concur with everything Alexander said. "Best" is what works best for you and will probably change over time. The knowledge management tool I currently use the mo...

Wow. That's a blast from the past. I was always intrigued by LM, but could never really figure out how to use it in any way that helped me write or work. I assumed there was a theory behind its design...
I don't think Scapple is intended to deal with hierarchy. It's about relationships. I suspect it sells well to Scrivener users, who can drag the notes directly into the binder. It's a handy little app...

Thank you, Alexander and Mad,
I will check out your suggestions. I knew I would get knowledgeable feedback here!!!

I suddenly realized that I made an error here. Symantec acquired GrandView and NetManage acquired ECCO. Just want to keep the record straight!

Well, that solves one of my reservations about VoodooPad, which is that it is hard to take seriously a developer called "Flying Meat."
The history of one developer acquiring an app from the original ...
Sorry for the off topic question, but I don't know anyone I trust more than this group when it comes to this kind of thing. The organization I work for needs an easy-to-use system for sharing document...
I am interested in how this works for you. Please keep us updated. Thank you.

I'd like to know what you feel is lacking in your current work flow that you expect CT to improve. CT is an outstanding all-in-one application, but I don't think it is a better writing environment tha...
For what I personally consider the best implementation of "inline" notes, see the article I wrote about Grandview several years ago:

article - simplenote alternatives
10/29/2013
Interesting that SimpleNote is no longer accepting Premium licenses. They had a recent "re-launch," but they've got to come up with some revenue source or we'll be back to the unbuyer beware scenario,...
TheBrain 8 beta
10/28/2013
I would be interested in knowing what percentage of TheBrain users are Pro Licensees only. My guess is that more and more users are doing the Combo license, which is basically an annual subscription. ...
Thanks for starting this interesting thread, Alexander. You've raised issues I was totally unaware of, though I've had a growing suspicion about cloud services for a while now. A friend and I have (on...

Welcome to the forum!
Just to add a couple of additional options to those all ready suggested: If you're using a Mac, give Curio a look. And if you're on a Windows machine, OneNote might be a good op...
This is what made Grandview so spectacular. It included every variety of method to expand and contract your document, so that you could always see just what you needed to see on the screen:
* Focus i...

I'm no fan of Word, avoiding it whenever I can. But I don't really see the problem. Write your work in whatever tool(s) you find best for you, then paste it or convert it to Word when it is time to su...
