Devon Technologies has recently released an update – version 2.0 - to DevonThink, a personal information assistant. This is an update that I have been anxiously awaiting for quite some time. One of the most important features of this update, is the ability to open multiple databases (DevonThink Pro & Pro Office only). I was pleasantly surprised to discover that not only can I now open more than one database at a time, but they are all displayed in the same window allowing me to quickly switched between them.
Some of the new features include:
- Ability to open multiple databases
- Ability to open multiple databases
- Smart groups (saved searches)
- Support for many common file formats
- New user interface
- Quick Look support
- Cover Flow View
- Tabbed viewing/editing
- All documents stored as is (no more conversions – can be edited externall)
- Trash Can
- Document Templates
- Improved RSS Feed Support
If you are not familiar with DevonThink, it is basically an intelligent database solution for your digital files. In our goal to have a “paperless office” (or paperless as much as possbile, anyway), it is indispensable. DevonThink allows us to store all of our digital files – graphics, sound files, movie files, spreadsheets, word processing documents, pdf’s, etc. all in one repository – and retrieval of information is almost instantaneous. You can also easily collect and store data from the Web and from your e-mail application with just a couple of keystrokes.
I have found the application to be flexible and I come up with new uses for it all the time – you are limited only by your imagination. To check it out, visit their Web site at: http://www.devon-technologies.com/
