Software Suggestions
-
I happen to have a sizeable collection of pdf files which has almost outgrown my folder based filing system. I'm looking for a desktop based piece of software that can organize and search through my document collection. I've currently found Paperport[^] and Docsvault[^], but have heard good and bad about both. Does anyone have any suggestions for document management software? I'm also looking for a good quality backup program that can handle backing up to multiple locations. A single backup would be contained on one drive, but subsequent backups would be alternated between backup drives. I haven't been able to find any backup software that will do this. Any recommendation would be helpful. Thanks.

I use Papers[^] on the Mac (it's more of a scientific paper organiser that happens to accept papers as PDF files) - their forums suggest the closest equivalent on Windows to be Endnote[^].
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

I'm using [Evernote](<a href=)[^] for storing PDFs, text fragments, images, and much more. A bonus for me is that they are cross-platform - they have both Windows and Mac clients as well as a secure web site, and the data can sync between all of them. The basic version (including PDF support) is free; the premium version gives you more MB/month syncing and the ability to store any file type.
