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.)

My stability rating should read 4 stars, it is stuck on 3.5. The program sometimes crashes on me. I haven't looked into possible causes or resolutions yet. At any rate, I could on and on, but I think this is probably enough for 1 post. If you have a mountain of information that you need to organize, then get DevonThink. Heck they will extend the trial version and you can wind up trying this thing for 6 months before you buy if you want to. I will add that Support has been snappy also.

I've been submitting reviews on MU for over three years, and this review was my first ever low star (with the exceptions of software that is no longer available that I warn about when I find them.)
Never once had a 'down smile' from anyone.
I post this and hey presto! 9 'downs' all at once, effectively dismantling my 'credibility as a reviewer' giving me a -1 review grade, and making me out to be some sort of technogrinch.
Were I a conspiracy nut, I'd be paranoid enough to think that I'd been the victim of a fragging here because I'd upset someone.
But I'm not.
The comment from someone about the date and developers not responding over the weekend was valid, but it was my fault for not making it clear that it was three working days without an answer, not three days per se.
And Devonthink, you have yet to get back to me.
If this is where MU is going, I think I'm out.

I love DTP.. but why is the sorter so fickle.. often it won't open at all.. even if I relaunch it.. why is it that SohoNotes is able to have a sorter-type tool that works perfectly.. and Devon isn't ?!? How illogical is this ?!? I wrote DT a few times about this, to no avail.. Which is really annoying as it makes it mush less intuitive to use.. I need to out things aside all day long.. and SORTER is extremely important to make it less painful..
Please DEVON.. SORT IT OUT !!!!!!!!!
I can't be the only user having issues with it.. no way !!!

Alas, I can't seem to reinstall DTPros Services, because when I choose "Install Add-ons" from the Help menu, I get the regular dialog box, but when I click "Install" this crashes DTPro beta every single time.
Anyone else have this problem == and anyone else able to get DTPro's Services to be available under Snow Leopard? (I have sent Devon Technologies an e-mail about this.)

They said:
"just disable the option "Global Inbox in Save Dialogs" in the Install Add-ons... panel"
and sure enough, that did it!
(Of course, with Snow Leopard, you may in some instances have to go to System Preferences/Keyboard/Keyboard Shortcuts and enable the Service you are wanting to activate -- and change the keyboard command, too, if you want, another way-cool feature of Snow Leopard)
Good luck!

I also hoped DTP would have some tag-based organization, like iTunes, rather than a directory hierarchy (which is broken because there isn't a unique correct hierarchy...)
+10
I'm in process of building an associated database covering chemical analytical methodologies (both US and EU), statistical and other procedures and issues related to the evaluation of environmental data, sampling methodologies, etc. This may likely grow larger than my main database.
Splitting out the very specific methodological material not only keeps my main database speedier, but keeps the AI features and searches in my main database from being diluted by the specifics in the methodologies database. That's important.
As to organizational structure, personally I've never considered my organization hierarchical.
I approach organization as putting 'clusters' of related content into groups, as well as 'clustering' related groups.
Many of my documents are replicated into two or more groups. Likewise, I often replicate a group into two or more 'clusters' of groups. I will use smart groups to replicate documents for a particular purpose, or replicate results of a search into a new group of related items.
I rarely tag individual documents, as I rely on the combination of grouping, searches and the 'See Also' AI feature to identify material in the process of a research project. DT Pro provides other tricks such as Option-click on a term to see other documents that use that term, Command-/ to initiate a search on a text string, and 'See Selected Text' to provide a list of potentially related documents.
In the process of a project I'll often create rich text notes linking to documents of special interest, or 'mark' them temporarily (I usually clear such marks later) using label or state marking.
