EndNote Reviews

"When a product is the most widely used in its market segment, and has developed every aspect of its original brief, where does it go next? The usual answer is that it should, in one of several ways, expand the brief: but exactly how that is done can be problematic. ... Version X placed it at the edge of a tipping point; release X1 takes it over that edge, and the expansion of its brief made it to free-standing maturity." To read more click here.

"The most powerful citation manager you can find short of a personal librarian"
- PC Magazine

"Thank you for listening about RTF capabilities, Palm possibilities, subject bibliographies, etc!"
- Leanne Wiedemann, Stowers Institute for Medical Research

"Excellent product. I would not be able to function effectively as an academic and researcher without it"
- Dr. J.M. Cummins, Associate Professor, Murdoch University

"Until now, searching for images and other files to cite in my paper was tedious. EndNote has solved that problem. Now I find them quickly and can even click on the thumbnail to edit the image."
- Alistair Campbell, Lincoln University, New Zealand

"Accreting additional functions to a product focussed on a narrow task, without succumbing to bloat, is a delicate balancing act – but EndNote has so far managed it. As a personal or small team tool, where only one user at a time need open the database in a mixed software environment, it is the market leader and takes some beating for combination of capacity with usability."

"The biggest changes are under the hood. EndNote X features a new compressed file format that allows libraries to be stored in less on-disk space. The compressed format also save libraries as single files, enabling easier sharing of libraries with your colleagues. Potentially more exciting, EndNote X features drag and drop management for embedded PDFs, so you can include articles right in your bibliographies. Combined with some stability and speed improvements, particularly combined with a shiny new universal binary, this makes for a very good upgrade.

Thomson has added in some eye candy and other fun stuff, too. Most noticeable is a new set of aquafied icons, but if you go to the tools menu, you'll find that they've also added customisable menus to almost every window."
—Jay Savage, The Unofficial Apple Weblog, Sept 2006

"EndNote X from Thomson Reuters is a major upgrade to the company's EndNote package. The new software can organise PDF files easily by dragging and dropping them to an EndNote record for automatic linking and storage. Existing PDF links in an EndNote library can be converted to the new management system in one step. The new compressed library option creates a single-file backup to easily transport an EndNote library between computers. Users can view up to eight fields in the reference list display and can click-sort column heads to locate records quickly."
—Focus on Software, PhysicsToday.org, Aug 2006

"Version X introduces a new way to manage PDF's by simply dragging and dropping a PDF file onto an EndNote record. EndNote stores the file with the references and creates a link automatically."

"The benefits are undeniable: I now get more done in less time, and spend less energy on unformatting or rebuilding bibliographies.”
"That two-generation move to EndNote 9 brought a number of advantages, including valuable interface refinements and the arrival of XML and Unicode."
"As a further great advantage, it's now possible to run literature analyses using either OmniViz or RefViz from within EndNote on a single button click. What used to be a multistage process is now completely integrated."
—Felix Grant, Scientific Computing World, Nov 2005

"The program has been enhanced to perform significantly faster when executing import, export and sorting. Its new database structure, introduced in version 8, supports libraries of unlimited size, as well as the inclusion of images. Its over 2600 connection files, import filters, output styles, and manuscript templates, makes it the most comprehensive, yet flexible program of its kind. It is the ideal program for sharing and collaborating with colleagues, across platforms and around the globe."

“Anyone who's ever written an academic paper and compiled a long bibliography or reference list by hand will appreciate another common feature and truly superb innovation in EndNote, ProCite and Reference Manager. Cite While You Write, an integrated component available with each program, lets you select one or more records and cite them in any one of the various bibliographic styles available in each program, typically a style associated with an academic journal.”
—David Mattison, Searcher, The Magazine for Database Professionals, Oct 2005

“Collaboration facilities have also been improved - EndNote 9 gives greater portability of customised reference field and type information for collaboration with colleagues.”
—Bobby Pickering, Information World Review, July 20, 2005

“Using EndNote 9 with enhanced Unicode support researchers and scholars can import, export, cite references and create bibliographies for their papers
in any language. Users can connect to data sources around the world with expanded record syntax and text encoding, and EndNote 9 contains 20 new
MARC formats that support native language libraries worldwide.”
