Interview Joost Driesens
Endnote constantly breaks in a MacOS. Even though I don't have a computer with MacOS installed, I am constantly asked to fix one such computer ...
Also, Endnote does not care about you as a user. For example, an update will be installed anytime, even when you are about to complete a proposal or a manuscript, and often screw itself up and require IT assistance for the license, delaying you at the worst possible moment. Reminds me of Microsoft.
Zotero does not have any of these problems.
Anyone here has used both #Zotero and #Endnote?
If so, which one do you prefer (if we set aside the fact that one is non-profit and the other is an exploitative for-profit)? Like, on the features and ease of use only?
Switching from EndNote to Zotero? Not as smooth as I hoped.
Wanted:
export EndNote library with PDFs, notes & group structure
Got:
* no group export via RIS/XML, had to do it manually,
* double records for refs in multiple groups
* lost (research) notes
* syncing to Zotero web = painfully slow
* limited storage 2GB (have to pay 120$/year for unlimited storage)
