CNET Editors' review
SuperNotecard helps writers of fiction and nonfiction with its tools. By providing the ability to create and organize virtual note cards, this program helps the creative process.
We were surprised that the program's professional-looking interface required a trip to the Help file. But seeing the commands and learning their definitions within the Help file was the only way to sort out the plethora of tools. The program offered us options for creating fiction and nonfiction projects, though in the end, the differences between the two were quite minimal. The program pleased us, as it functioned primarily as stacks of note cards that could be written on, reorganized, and divided easily into infinite piles that represented separate parts of our writing project. Cards were easy to cycle through and helped usher along the thought process by showcasing our plans. In addition, the program provided special features that improved the program's quality. Its word counter, and its options to color code cards and gauge each card's dramatic tension, combined with the program's primary function, result in a simple, well-rounded thought organizer.
SuperNotecard's trial limits the number of note cards that can be created. The program installs desktop icons without permission and leaves folders and Start menu items behind after uninstall. We recommend this program thanks to its ability to juggle and coordinate thoughts.
Publisher's Description
From Mindola Software:
SuperNotecard is an intuitive tool that uses notecards to capture and organize your ideas. These virtual notecards can be moved into decks, arranged on the screen, or grouped and categorized with ease. Researchers use SuperNotecard to gather facts, manage sources and finally stitch it all together in a way that is significantly more visual and capable than a traditional outlining tool. With many export and print options, SuperNotecard is one click away from your favorite word processor or layout program.
What's new in this version: Version 3.3 includes card and deck aliases and a few bug repairs.

"Very well made program"
Version: SuperNotecard 3.2
Pros
Works very well, does what it says it does, reasonable price
Cons
Only major one is it doesn't support shift-tab combination... Not major
Summary
I think it's great... Was looking for this, and this was the only solution I found

"A must for research writers."
Version: SuperNotecard 1.5.45
Pros
Has the ability to store notes and view them (along with their sources) either in outline or as individual or stacks of "electronic note cards." The cards can be rearranged as your research deepens. It is the best such program I've found since the old Three by Five program was absorbed into Final Draft.
Cons
Cannot directly transfer notes into word processing programs.

"The best writer companion, ever"
Version: SuperNotecard 1.1.18
Summary
As a writer, I never had the chance to see my desk not flooded with paper cards until this software comes in. Not only it offers a handy card view, but it allows to link each card with my plots (and shows small stickers on cards to reflect those links). A real gem for writers, professional or not.
