They claimed that once you'd used its non-hierarchical approach to organising your notes that you wouldn't want to go back, and the strange thing is that they're right. Strange, because it's hardly the only option out there using tags and links, so there's something subtle going on which has very quickly made Capacities my preferred notes app. It still needs work: by their own admission the offline access is still limited, and a web clipper would be handy. Tables are still far more useful than side by side blocks. I'm a little concerned about future pricing: will the forthcoming mobile app be available in the free version? I'm happy to pay something but it has to realistically reflect the place of notes in my working tools. Having watched Evernote price itself beyond feasible value even for its "personal" version I really hope Capacities won't follow suit. But the potential for greatness is all there, and the team seem smart and focused, so I live in hope.
