Comments and Reviews
still relevant in 2021... the sad thing: development is stalled, there is still support but no new features for years. the good thing: even though development is stalled, this is still the best bookmarker/annotation tool/highlighter on the market. it just works great. better than hypothesis or memex (diigo is just faster, can handle 10k items without slowdowns, and the highlights presentation is better more compact. Liner's highlights are somewhat similar). It can save webpages, images, pdfs, import kindle highlights, works great with ifttt.
This review has two parts, positive and negative, but it is mostly lean towards negative side for apparent reasons.
Positive: Diigo lets you:
Now the negative side which forced me to stop paying them to be a premium user:
I used it for about a year or more and I was a premium user, the site was mostly functional and it was growing with acceptable pace until December 2014 that they announced a feature called "Outliners" as a new version of the features they had as "Lists". Outliners were (and at the moment are) very buggy, ugly and in practical as you can see in the following forum discussion in their website support section: http://feedback.diigo.com/forums/76211-ideas/suggestions/6803419-make-outliners-optional-and-return-lists-as-option
Here are the reasons why I say Diigo support team is bad:
The hilarious part was premium users was paying Diigo and also trying to work out a solution and designing new features for FREE (!!) and yet Diigo team was just ignoring them and draining money out of our pockets.
Currently I'm trying to test multiple other services: Hypothes.is Annotateit.org annotary.com Scrible.com
The first two are lacking so many features and extremely ugly. The two latter ones are more closer to Diigo concept and so far I'm trying to decide which one is better to stick to it.
Simple to use. It adds the highlighted text as an abstract instantly. We can change the title, add tags. And most of all, it creates RSS feeds from our tags. Why not 5 stars? Sometimes the tagging won't work while bookmarking the pages, you have to go back in your library to add them.
Supplies a simply organized repository for bookmarks. Let's you tag items. Takes a little looking around to figure the layout of the site. It brought in a Realtor site and 3 help links that I had a little confusion removing. I went under "not in outliner" and was able to remove from there. Last update seems to be 2016 and it seems there are some unusable artifacts, but still worth my while.
the best web clip and annotation tool, just a litter bit expensive
I have been using free version for 9 years. Unfortunately there is no free (windows + android) alternatives with better features.
I thought i could save bookmarks but cudt
