It was helpful in importing and reading markdown notes that I had exported from Mac Notes. > > **Cons**: Markdown based syntax does take some time getting used to ----- ### "Obsidian best tool to keep knowledge" — 5.0/5 > **Oscar** | *1 March 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: i loved the linkage of data using the brackets, this makes more easy to construct complex information articles, especially when you have abstract information that you need to deconstruct for understand. > > **Cons**: that you have to pay for the multi--device link a subscription, I think it should be a one time payment. > > it is great, I use it in my work to keep all the knowledge i gather from the task I do, and also in my personal life to study, as you have this digital record to come back and review, for me is better tool than One note or Evernote, and if you dont have something you want, there are additional modules you can add for free. ----- ### "Obsidian for Personal Information Management (PKM)" — 4.0/5 > **Glen** | *3 November 2024* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Obsidian is free to use, and I sync it between all of my devices via iCloud. It's a great way to store lots of information and to cross-link everything. Before, I used to add snippets to lots of note-taking apps and forget where I had put it. > > **Cons**: It has a learning curve based on mark down language, but the plugins that you can add to it can make it more user friendly. It is not a million miles away from how Notion works. > > A learning curve, but plenty of info and demos out there to help. a great information storage device. ----- ### "Obsidian keeps me sane" — 5.0/5 > **Danny** | *16 May 2023* | Writing & Editing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple, flexible, extensible, and just works.Offline, online, phone, desktop, laptop it doesn't matter. > > **Cons**: Syncing between devices requires a cloud service or payment of Obsidian sync. > > 3+ years and I am still learning and exploring the options available enjoying my writing and research as I go. ----- ### "A full featured truly cross-platform knowledge management package" — 5.0/5 > **Jim** | *11 January 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: For those working across PC, Mac, Linux and mobile Obsidian offers parity of functionality on each platform making switching effortless.A wide range of options for backend storage ensure that you can keep ownership of your notes whether on a public cloud, private cloud or local files. And the notes remain human readable and editable even without the package making them future proof.The active community provides a wide range of add-ons that enhance the functionality and customise it to your needs. You can also tailor the add-ons and settings for each collection of notes. > > **Cons**: Owning your own notes requires you to invest some time and effort in configuring the backend storage, and not all options are supported on all operating systems. However the developers offer foolproof cloud hosting as a paid alternative. > > Obsidian has proven to be the OneNote alternative which treats Linux as a firstclass platform. Also, having seen hosted/proprietary services disappear over the year it is a great comfort knowing I own my own notes and will be able to access them without any special software. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2067886/obsidian?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/2067886/obsidian) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
