"I use Paperpile to manage my references"

4/5

What do you like best about Paperpile?

I love Paperpile. Before Paperpile, I used EndNote for my PC. However, my EndNote was not compatible with my Mac, so I had to buy a new version. My friend told me about Paperpile, and I love it. One of the best features is that I can change my citation style to any style I want, and the software will update the entire file to the new citation style for me. That is a wonderful feature. Additionally, another plus is that Paperpile is compatible with both Mac and PC, and it is compatible with Google Drive as well. Lastly, I can embed my reference simply by looking for the title. This feature is much better than EndNote, where I had to download the file and embed them into my paper. Sometimes, if I had 200 references, the amount of files I was downloading could be overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Referencing Manager; a MUST HAVE for google docs users"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Paperpile?

Paperpile is smart technology at its finest -- 100% user-friendly and very intuitive. I've tried several citation managing applications (zotero, endnote, mendeley) and Paperpile rises to the top of the stack. I love that it is cloud based and stores all of my papers as PDFs and lets me add citations as I write. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
