Has anyone compared JabRef to Zotero? I chose JabRef a while back (its database is nothing more than your bib file, it helps organize your pdfs well enough, it can import bib entries from MathSciNet and the ArXiv, it runs fast enough), but every once in a while I wonder whether the programs I'm not using are the ones that deliver true bibliographic salvation.
- funklute 7y agoI switched from JabRef to Zotero a while ago, mainly because JabRef seemed to be extremely buggy. I'm broadly using the same feature set on both, but Zotero is a lot less buggy, and it's faster and easier to add new references. If JabRef was more stable, I think I would have stuck with that, because of the inherent simplicity. EDIT: I'm an exclusive linux user, and as you can maybe tell, I like JabRef because of the unix-ish philosophy: a tool that does exactly what it needs to do, and nothing more.
