"Ideal for managing references "
What do you like best about EndNote?

It allows to add, edit, and organize references and citations in any kind of document in a easy and efficient manner. I also love the travel library feature because it facilitates team work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

I do not really dislike any of this software. Sometimes the library (of saved references) crashes but after closing and opening the program again the issue is solved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Manage biblio and inline references like a pro"
What do you like best about EndNote?

The fact that the major reference databases have a built in link to the web version of Endnote. I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation using just the web version and even its trimmed down features have all the basics I need to fully manage my references. Also like how automated it is to group the references in a many-to-many fashion so if writing on multiple topics simultaneously, the same reference can be grouped into the reference list for each article using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

That when linking from reference database at a library's site to my account in web-based Endnote that it opens a new web window each time. Have to keep closing windows if adding a lot of article references. Better if it could hook back into the window that opened the previous time a reference was added. This may not be possible with web version, but is annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"EndNote is very good at what it does"
What do you like best about EndNote?

The smartgroups and group on groups are the primary reason I started using EndNote. They have finally implemented the ability to find multiple reference updates as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

The Pubmed identification number, which every reference has, cannot be used to search for duplicates

The software intermittently crashes

The inability to copy any kind of group

The need to delete information in order to get Find Reference Updates to offer to update only empty fields

Find Reference updates, although it now can be used on multiple records, counts the records instead of displaying the record number Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Endnote crashes with Mac and wipes out my work in MS Word, too."
What do you like best about EndNote?

I do not like anything about this software. It is horrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

Since the OS update, Sierra, 10.12.6, Endnote crashes when I try to open a reference, read a pdf, or insert a reference into my word file on my Mac. Further, it crashes Word and all work is lost! It's a disaster and they are not updating it. If they expect me to spend more money on this junky software, they are nuts. I can't get any help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great citation management tool for writing dissertations."
What do you like best about EndNote?

>A wide variety of reference types available. More than I've found in other reference management software.

>Gives the user the freedom to customize formatting and has a pretty exhaustive list pre-loaded of formats.

>Dependable even while working with large quantities of citations. I used it to wite my masters thesis which involved an extensive literature review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

>It is difficult to learn in the beginning. The help files are not really that useful The way the platform is structured isn't really intuitive. Took me weeks to figure out how to make my library.

>Even though I have access to EndNote right now through my university, I wouldn't once I graduate. It should have a free or a less expensive version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for organizing citations"
What do you like best about EndNote?

Endnote is great for organizing citations that you can easily insert into Microsoft Word while you type. I appreciate it's compatibility with writing software. Furthermore, the Endnote online component makes it easy to add citations as you search databases regardless if you are on the your primary computer that has the Endnote program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about EndNote?

Endnote can be a bulky program that can take up a lot of RAM. One of my early versions of Endnote was on an early computer that had trouble supporting the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
