I initially tried it, just because I thought I should see what $80 gets you… That trial has lead to it being my core application! I use it principally to store information regarding my research (water towers), but also have other databases to store information relating to Macs and various societies I’m involved with. If you want to perform more complete searches, with proper search operators like AND, OR, XOR, NOT, fuzzy matching, simple regular expressions, NEAR, BEFORE, AFTER, and OPT (optional) terms, then Spotlight is not going to satisfy where DEVONSphere will.Īs with most 'power' tools, DEVONSphere requires at least a few minutes reading of the help/manual in order to at least understand what it can do for you.I got my copy “free” - it was included in a MacUpdate Bundle, that I was buying for other software. If you don't need more subtle searching than that offered by Spotlight, the DEVONSphere will be a waste, but if you want a broader and more capable live search tool than Spotlight, and especially one that integrates with DEVONThink, then DEVONSphere express is a very useful tool to have around.Īgain, if all you want to do is search local files or visited webpages by simple keywords, stick to Spotlight. At least one reviewer asks, 'what does this do that Spotlight doesn't', which reveals a breathtaking ignorance of the products extended search capabilities (I suggest you RTFM).
