Compare DocearWe wrote a comprehensive Blog post that compared Docear with Mendeley and Zotero and that should help you to decide which reference manager is best for you. The essence is summarized in the following table. If you are interested in more details, read the full article.Please note that the developers of all three tools constantly improve their tools and add new features. Therefore, the table might be not perfectly up-to-date. In addition, it s difficult to rate a particular functionality with only one out of three possible ratings (yes; no; partly). Therefore, we highly suggest to read our detailed review, which explains in detail the rationale behind the ratings.The people behind DocearWe the Docear team are a group of students, postdocs, and professors around the globe (mostly from the Information Science Group at the University of Konstanz, Germany, the OvGU in Magdeburg, and UC Berkeley).
