@@tan_2k06 Like I wrote in my comment. Cross platform support is essential, via the web or an app. Then high security, data should be encrypted on the device and remain encrypted on the server without the possibility for anyone else than you to access the information. Last, you must be able to export the notes to xml, html or plain text (markdown). In terms of features a good note taking app must be fast and quick to create new notes on the fly, a good search and tagging options.

Would love a comparison, maybe spreadsheet, of note taking app possibilities. (Although I know they are always adding!). For ex: platform compatibility, clipper, tagging, bidirectional links, integrations (ie Readwise), mind mapping like possibilities (ie. Obsidian canvas), spaced repitition, AI tagging, daily notes (journal), block based, tasks and/or calendar integration, folders, mark up capabilities. U’d live ti create this as a group!!!!

I’m not sure if it gets much hate, it’s just getting a bit old and is becoming outdated. It’s certainly still serviceable and great for some, but it’s hard to put it above apps like craft, obsidian, Evernote, or ample note as it doesn’t add anything unique that those don’t provide.

It adds a price tag of Zero, jajajajaja. On a serious note, I believe Microsoft is planning on releasing a massive update this year, which should include a full UI overhaul. I still think OneNote is much better for stylus input that Evernote. It feels more natural, but obviously not everyone has a 2 in 1 or a tablet with a stylus so this feature may not be for everyone.

No OneNote? Really? Despite its flaws, it should still definitely be mentioned in the top 15 lol. The simple reason: is it's the only app that offers the combined feature set that it has. I for example, envy the organization features of Obsidian, but I've concluded I won't change to Obsidian, Notion or Evernote any-time soon despite considering/reviewing to do it for some time. Also, when it comes to taking notes for learning and retention, there are studies that have shown that pen input is significantly advantageous to keyboard input, not to mention the only good/viable option for some subjects. OneNote allows for that on a tablet directly, or by scanning and auto-cropping pages with the phone app which then get OCR-scanned and searchable automatically. And unlike Evernote (as far as I know), it has a decent tool for math input with the keyboard as well. If you're a medical school student or engineering student for example, you're missing out by watching this video and OneNote with its pros and cons not being mentioned.

I found Anne-Laure Le Cunff's distinction of Architect / Gardener / Librarian (and Tiago Forte's addition of Student) to be a great way to understand one's own note-taking style and thus how to choose a good notetaking app. I would love to see Tool Finder (with permission?) use these different user distinctions as a way to categorize/filter all its productivity apps. I think it would make finding the right apps for a specific user much easier. Once I learned this distinction I immediately understood why my wife, for example, would never do well using the same apps that I would choose for myself, and it made me much better at helping her choose apps that were right for her.

DEVONthink combines note taking with webclipping articles, literature from your citation manager, RSS feeds, and image, audio, and video files. Note templates speed up capture and RSS enables a read-it-later experience. Instead of PKM terminology it can be considered a personal reference library suited to academics, professionals, and content creators. The search, note linking, and mind mapping make it like a personal library assistant as well.

I use Craft as a place to store reference data, keep track of longer term training for my job as sections where it is all together and use the calendar section for daily to-dos. Then I use Bear notes for longer note taking because it’s a lovely clean interface where you can just concentrate on the note-taking without distractions - and it has fantastic export options if I want to then transfer that note into Craft. The setup using those two apps for me is ideal. This is a personal preference thing, but I find the Notion UI really clunky and not very nice which makes it more difficult to use for me. I love that Craft and Bear look great and makes it feel more immersive and helps me focus. Just my two cents.

I'm using Mem as a file cabinet as it's easy to get clip info from email, web, and Twitter. Mem X makes it very easy to find relevant info as well, but the editor is quite bare-bones, and overall, the UX is kind of a mess. I understand they put all their effort into AI, but it's difficult to use it as the main PKM drive. For that, I'm using Heptabase, an infinite canvas note app. The development pace is super fast, and the founder is really listening to the community.
