From DEVONtechnologies:
In today's world, everything is digital. From shopping receipts to important research papers, your life often fills your hard drive in the form of emails, PDFs, Word documents, multimedia files and more. Questions eventually pop up, like where do you store all of this stuff? How do you organize these very different file types, and even better, how do you find the exact file you're looking for the second you need it? It's almost as if you need a second brain just to keep your digital life straight.
DEVONthink is the solution to the digital age conundrum. It is your second brain, the one and only database for all your digital files, be they PDFs, emails, Word docs or even multimedia files. Boasting a refined artificial intelligence, DEVONthink is exceedingly flexible and adapts to your personal needs. And if the files are not digital yet, digitize them with DEVONthink Pro Office.
Use it as your document repository, your filing cabinet, your email archive, or your project organizer; DEVONthink can do it all. You can even collect and organize data from the web for your own use, enrich it with sound and movie files from your hard drive, and then export the finished product as a website or to an Apple Pages document to print, should you so desire. Or copy the content to your iPod! The possibilities are only as limited as your imagination.
DEVONthink Professional Office extends DEVONthink Pro with three additional modules: Pro-grade email archiving, paper capture including optical character recognition, and integrated web sharing (search only.)

"Powerful Information Collector"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0.5
Pros
I have a few different applications which allow me to gather notes, clippings, images, documents, etc. together, but this application is, by far, the most powerful.
Cons
It is very complex. I've been using it for quite a while and still feel I've only just scratched the surface.

"Very Unstable"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0.3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
If you want to use it with small amounts of data it works OK. However, large databases constantly freeze up. Create a database and import a ton of PDF's. This will take hours. THEN, it will freeze. You have to kill it at that point. This has happened to me many times.
This is a very expensive program. It should work at that price. It doesn't. -
"the only truly versatile, comprehensive database."
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0
Pros
i can move anything into it, organize immediately, or not. for research -- on a book for instance, it's invaluable. this version is so much easier to use than previous iterations that it was worth the wait.
Cons
takes a long time to get used to it. but like learning a language, once you have it, it's second nature -- and it sure makes life easier.

"This program does not work"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0pb5
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
For some reason DEVONthink Pro version 2 has trouble synchronizing files. The "guru" that was out here insists it has no problem, but he doesn't explain the weird response I get from the program when I use it. Once again, here is the problem:
We have a large number of PDF files out on a server. All I want this application to do is go out there and index all the PDF files and allow me to search on them. I can import the entire site without a problem. However, what is one to do when someone adds a new PDF file to the site? When I tell DEVONthink Pro 2 to synchronize, it does absolutely nothing. I don't even see the point of having the synchronize menu item in the program. It does nothing. However, that is not the main issue that I'm having. The problem is that after someone adds a new PDF file to the site there is no way for me to add back new material to my database. The only way I have been able to figure out how to do it is to reimport the entire site. There is no synchronized, or update feature. Obviously I can't go out and just import the particular documents that have been added since my last import because I don't have any way of knowing what documents have been added. If this is meant to be an improvement over version 1, it leaves a lot to be desired. In my view, the program simply does not work. And I suspect that this is one of the reasons this program has been in the beta stage since before time. -
"Unbelievable"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0pb3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
The program doesn't work correctly. As I outlined before, and the developer ignored, it does not sync. So, I waited until the next "upgrade." Still no file synchronization. I decide to hell with it and went back to 1.5.4. However, for some reason it now thinks the program is "unregistered." So, I had to dig out the serial number again. (Another company more interested in those who did not buy the program than those who did.)
I entered the serial number information exactly as it was emailed to me. No luck. Apparently, version 2 kills any chance re-register version 1. I contacted the company with the problem. Their response: They will get back to me "at our earliest convenience." Gee, thanks. -
"a little late and rough around the edges"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0pb1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Smart groups haven't been fully implemented yet when every other info manager has them? This beta is buggy (as one might expect): I imported my DTP database, and after using it for a while, DTP 2 pretended that it needed to be updated again!
More importantly, unless you're sold on the "AI" design of this, DTP 2 is really too late. What people want is for their notes to be available everywhere, on their desktop, the web, and their iPhone. Evernote offers that now. -
"Its the Best!"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 2.0pb1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I have used DT since I got my first Mac in 2006. While it has been critical to my work, it did suffer from some problems such as slow loads, instability, etc but it was so useful I stayed with it anyway.
But....after using the 2.0 beta for a short while, it is clear that the product has moved light years ahead.....stable, fast, and with MUCH more compact databases not to mention a slew of new features. I am confident enough to dump all my other data repositories and plan on just using DT for all my data in both the work and personal realms.
This product is simply ahead of everything else in its class! -
"Still has problems"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 1.3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
This program may be considered the state-of-the-art, but I'm not convinced that is saying all that much. It still has some problems.
for instance:
- â?¢ A system which is supposed to help you manage data, under OSX, that doesn't offer spotlight support is just a disconnected database.
- â?¢ The program is buggy.

"I can't praise this app enough."
Version: DEVONthink Pro 1.3b2
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I'd highly recommend DEVONthink Pro to anyone who, like me, has struggled for years trying to plan an immense project that no other application seems to adequately handle. It is immensely stable and scalable: I have 1,166 groups/folders right now and over 177 000 words, in a brand new database -- before I "rebooted," I had over 25 million words in just under 20 000 documents. Performance was still good. Version 2.0 is supposed to store all documents outside of the application database, which will make performance even better on large databases. The featureset is very rich. The search is powerful and instantaneous. The AI is very powerful, although I have not used it as often as some users. It depends on OS X's PDFKit for PDF work, and the general RTFD stuff for working with text documents. However, it does have neat extras built-in, like the WikiLinks (which work better in this app than in any of the others I've tried, including VoodooPad). The support for scripting is immense. I have not yet needed to write an AppleScript and been unable to accomplish a particular task. The included scripts are well-written and the dictionary is large. The included Automator actions are powerful and comprehensive, although I switched from using Automator to AppleScript entirely while using DT. There are many other features, of course. The full-screen editing is wonderful, although not uncommon at this point. The "bookmarklets" for Safari work wonderfully, and the Services are very nice. There are some things missing -- the smart groups, while extremely powerful, are not as "clean" as I would like. There is no "tagging" support, although there are comments for each document that can be used like tags. The interface is a bit ghastly, but I prefer it to the beautiful inefficiency of other applications. All in all, I give it a 5 out of 5 for its immense power, stability, and featureset. Are there improvements to be made? Sure -- and I'll be waiting breathlessly. This app is just going to get better and better. -
"STILL no Spotlight Support!"
Version: DEVONthink Pro 1.3b2
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I paid for DevonTHINK Pro well over a year ago.. and they keep promising Spotlight support in this upcoming elusive "Version 2". Well, here we are OVER A YEAR LATER.. and we are at version 1.3b and STILL NO SPOTLIGHT SUPPORT! If you contact them, they will tell you.. "it's coming in Version 2".
And now they are coming out with an "Office" version. What happened to Version 2?? Or simply add Spotlight support, that EVERY OTHER note taking program has done!
This is a real bummer.. it's a great cataloging/note taking program.. but by ignoring one of the most powerful features of OSX, SPOTLIGHT, they have lost me as a user. I have since moved on.
