Its citation management features are useful, especially for those working on journal articles, theses, reports, and other research-based documents. The integration with Microsoft Word, through Cite While You Write, is one of the main reasons many users choose EndNote. When the software and Word plugin work together properly, it can save time and improve consistency in citation formatting. > > **Cons**: My current experience with EndNote 20 has been very frustrating. I purchased EndNote 20 and expected to continue using it, especially for basic functions such as working with Microsoft Word. However, after changing my computer, EndNote 20 no longer works properly with Word. The Cite While You Write function does not communicate properly with my Word documents, which makes the software difficult to use for its main purpose. What is most disappointing is that the apparent solution seems to be upgrading to a newer version, such as EndNote 25. I do not want to pay again for a new version simply because I changed my computer. A purchased software license should remain functional, especially when the user is not asking for new features, only for the version they already paid for to continue working. I am baffled by this experience. EndNote should support researchers and professionals, not create unnecessary technical barriers or pressure users into paid upgrades. Customers who purchased EndNote 20 should still have access to clear support, compatible plugins, and a reasonable way to use the software on a new computer. > > EndNote can be a useful citation management tool when it works properly, but my experience with EndNote 20 after changing computers has been disappointing. At this point, I cannot confidently recommend EndNote 20 to users who may need to reinstall the software or move it to a new computer, especially if they do not want to pay for an upgrade to a newer version. ----- ### "Efficient and Reliable Reference Manager for Academic Research" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *July 6, 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: EndNote is a comprehensive reference management software, and I can obtain reference files from various sources, ranging from Google Scholar to the default landing pages of major journals. > > **Cons**: The price for students is relatively high, which can sometimes be unaffordable without a funding source. > > EndNote has been an essential tool in organizing and managing my references throughout my academic research. Its compatibility with various databases and ease of citation insertion into manuscripts have significantly streamlined my writing process. Despite the cost, its robust features and reliability make it a worthwhile investment. ----- ### "Extremely useful tool for Academic Referencing" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *February 26, 2025* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using Endnote as my main referencing software for many years and find it invaluable for saving time and effort when writing academic papers. Being able to import references directly into Endnote from the Academic Journals is particularly useful and the 'Cite While You Write' feature makes preparing a paper very simple. > > **Cons**: Endnote does take some time to get to grips with. For a novice user, it can appear daunting but once you get the hang of it, you realise that it was worth putting in the time to learn how to use it. There are lots of really useful videos on YouTube, some made by the Endnote team themselves and many by ordinary users, which demonstrate how to use the software. > > My overall experience with EndNote has been very positive. It saves me a significant amount of time and effort by helping me organise my references efficiently and ensuring my papers are always referenced accurately and professionally. ----- ### "End Note for Research Work" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *August 31, 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: EndNote’s robust reference management, extensive citation styles, and powerful search capabilities make organizing research seamless. Its integration with Word and advanced features enhance productivity. > > **Cons**: EndNote’s interface can be complex and unintuitive. The software plug-in in the Word file sometimes do not work. ----- ### "Endnote: The most popular application among professional researchers and academics" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *July 5, 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 1. Very efficient reference management application, grouping references in one topic 2. Integrated with Ms. Word, thus speeding up the writing of a quote 3. Team collaboration is easy so that it can make work efficiency 4. Multiplatform, so that it is possible to be accessed from various devices > > **Cons**: 1. Expensive prices 2. Synchronization is sometimes problematic 3. Limited search features > > Initially, I manually compiled a research reference, which was very tiring and boring; with Endnote, everything became fast and easy. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/1017351/endnote?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/1017351/endnote) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | ----- ## Structured Data
