**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Avik M. | Manager, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2018

**What do you like best about Diigo?**

I really liked how easy it made to take notes when you are reading online. I read and go through a lot of financial content online. Prior to this it was a chore taking notes, copying links and saving reminders for alter. Diigo made all of that ridiculously easy, so much so that I am pretty sure I cant go back to the old way of doing things anymore. It is super simple to use. Just highlight something and decide what you want to do with it. And it instantly gets added to your account to review and go back to later on. If you tend to do a lot of work and research online its an absolute god send. 

**What do you dislike about Diigo?**

I would have liked more options to share. Especially using some of my other extensions. I dont know if there is a way to hook them into each other but that would be nice. 

**Recommendations to others considering Diigo:**

There is a free version (ad supported) available. And since it hooks into your browser you dont have to install anything. Really no reason to not try it out. Trust me. Once you do, you wont go back. 

**What problems is Diigo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes my research process much more simple and easier. Reduces the time I spend shuttling between different apps since I now I just do it through the browser.

**What do you like best about Diigo?**

I use this to do market research for different app products. It's helpful to organize links and information on those links. Previously, I used to have to run around on different websites and scroll to find content within a link.  Diigo makes it so much easier to find content that I use in the research.  Mostly looking at reddit and forums, so this was very helpful for not having to scroll down repeatedly to find something.  

**What do you dislike about Diigo?**

I feel like the interface is a bit dated looking.  Looks a bit pixelated, but otherwise I like most of the feature that I use.  It's mostly just for highlighting text and being able to search it.  Pulling quotes and important points, etc.

**What problems is Diigo solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helped me quickly get information for meetings which saves a lot of time and energy.  Definitely helpful for making sure you have easy access to a variety of
