Review Capacities?

Capacities is highly praised for its object-based approach to note-taking, which many users find intuitive and flexible. It is often compared favorably to Notion and Obsidian, with users appreciating its clean UI and offline sync capabilities. The makers of Web Highlights - PDF & Web Highlighter highlight Capacities' innovative organization method, which replaces traditional folder structures with objects. Users commend its responsive development team and frequent updates, though some express a desire for improved task management and offline features. Overall, Capacities is seen as a powerful tool for personal knowledge management.

Capacities is a tool that has replaced Notion for me. Capacities rethinks the way we collect our information. Instead of folder structures, it focuses on organizing things into objects.

Amazing product with incredible potential. Tried it, loved it, the only thing retaining me from using it daily and paying premium is bulk import. I have too much things saved on Notion to migrate everything one by one, but will certainly switch to Capacities as my main workplace when they add it!

Tried all the known note taking apps and journal apps, but this is the one that changed everything for me! Note types are a real game game changer but also the nice formatting options. Finally a note taking app I really use on a daily basis without much friction. Love it!

I feel like Capacities has finally given me a framework to understand how to properly use databases to link and store my notes. I have tried Notion several times and while I really like it, I always seem to get hung up on how to sustainably grow my collection of notes without spending too much time on maintenance. Capacities solves this problem for me in the way it's designed as an object-based system. It's easy to use, has a nice user interface, and has been making thoughtful and useful developments regularly since I joined just a couple of months ago! If you have struggled with feeling "at home" in a note-taking app as I have, I highly recommend giving Capacities a try.

The easy way to take notes without wasting time on navigating design features or adding unnecessary elements like in Obsidian. Capacitiess allows me to seamlessly link notes together, providing me with the flexibility to take notes in different formats. And, of course, it does so in a simple and beautiful manner. Lastly, it is developed in Germany by German developers.

Capacities is a beautiful note-taking application that combines an awesome user interface, well thought functionality, and an excellent development team. You can define various content types (like person, application, book, movie, ...) with certain attributes (text fields, connections to other content types (e.g., person <-> company). These content types can be used to structure your notes. You can also use a calendar-based journal, email, Telegram, and WhatsApp integration. It is available for Mac and Windows as well as the web. I'm currently testing the beta iOS app, which feels like being ready for prime time.

I tested the most popular note-taking apps, but none felt right like Capacities. It offers a great balance between structure and flexibility that suits my needs. Its unique object-based approach makes capturing your ideas and thoughts intuitive and standardised, reducing cognitive load. Moreover, it provides powerful features to view, embed, and layout information, catering to both visual and analytical thinkers. Furthermore, the product is continuously evolving, with its founders dedicated to enhancing user experience and constantly seeking ways to improve the product by actively listening to community feedback!

Capacities offers a potent and user-friendly experience. I was unaware of the advantages of its unique "object-based" approach to note-taking until I tried it myself. Now, I no longer struggle to remember where I stored those seldom-accessed notes. This app has significantly enhanced my ability to intuitively arrange and format my notes. Moreover, thanks to its adaptable nature, Capacities serves as both my personal knowledge management (PKM) tool and personal CRM solution.
