How we grade them
| 2.6GPAMyInfoGood | 3.4GPANoteCase ProVery good | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B$99 once, plus tax, with a year of updates included. That's about 16 months of a typical $5.99 a month plan in this category, and you keep the licence. Updates after year one are an optional $49 a year, and the last version you got keeps working if you stop. | AAll one-time. €7 buys the exact current version on one operating system, €17 covers one major version, and lifetime is €37 for one system or €67 for all of them, Android included. Even the dearest is about a year of a typical $5.99 a month plan here. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan. There's a fully featured 30-day trial, and when it ends you can still view and export your notes but not edit them. So you won't lose anything by trying it. | BThere's a free Lite mode, but only on Android, and it drops encrypted documents, attachments, search and sorting. That's tight. On desktop you get a 30-day trial with everything switched on, and then you need a licence. |
| Features | ATrees or sortable lists, tags and attributes that show up as columns, wiki-style links, a rich text editor, a web clipper, and a Global Search with boolean syntax that reads inside attached PDFs and Office files. It also publishes a notebook as a website and encrypts notebooks behind a password. | AA tree you can reorder, with cloned branches that stay in step. Rich text, pictures and attachments saved inside the document. Tasks with due dates and repeats, tags, encrypted formats, sync, and import from more than 30 formats. Then Lua scripts and plugins with several hundred commands on top. |
| Ease of use | BNo store rating to go on, so a B is our ceiling. It installs like any Windows program and works fully offline. There's a lot of it, though, so expect a while finding your way around perspectives and attributes. | BNo store rating to go on, so a B is our ceiling. The app itself is an install. The buying is the fiddly part: you pick between six licence types, and the key is emailed by the developer personally, which can take up to 24 hours. |
| Platforms and integrations | DWindows only, on Windows 7 or newer. The one thing outside it is a web clipper extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge and other Chromium browsers. The maker runs no cloud service, and there's no Mac, phone or web version. | BWindows, macOS, Linux and several BSD and Solaris systems, plus a separate Android edition that reads the same files. Lua scripting and a built-in MCP server let other things talk to it. No iPhone or web version, and the Android app has fewer features. |
