## Reviews

### "Interconnected, always accessible notes" — 4.0/5

> **Sascha** | *17 October 2024* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Interconnected notes, accessible across all your devices, and directly in the browser.
> 
> **Cons**: ROAM does box you in. Migrating to any other tool can be daunting. Then again, that is the case for most tools in this category.

### "Review for Roam" — 5.0/5

> **Harsh** | *30 November 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The aspect of Roam that has delighted me the most is how having it open in a tab changes my perspective on research as a whole.
> 
> **Cons**: The integration with our everyday used software was a little difficult.

-----

### "The "first-mover" in associative knowledge management, but lacks innovation and is expensive" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 April 2023* | Research | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Roam was the first to open the eyes of the general user base to the idea of taking notes and associating them, creating an expansive networked knowledge base over time. Roam really changed my way of thinking on how to organize my scattered thoughts into a graph database. It's UI is relatively clean and writing individual notes is pretty simple.
> 
> **Cons**: It lacks innovation and major feature updates. I need inline LaTeX equations and made numerous requests for this and other features, but was met with rude responses from support. It's handling of multiple graphs is rather clunky. And if your graphs are sufficiently large, you'll encounter performance issues (at least I did). And it is extremely expensive given its lack of features and feature development.
> 
> Overall, it was not so bad of an experience at first. It taught me a new way to think about writing notes. But it has fallen behind many other alternatives and I don't see their developers making the effort to catch up and innovate. Time to move on.

### "Excellent note taking tool" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *29 November 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Organization of thoughts, note taking abilities, being able to search through easily
> 
> **Cons**: Very simplistic interface, sometimes the nectar becomes the poison
> 
> Great experience with Roam

### "Roam, the good and bad about it" — 4.0/5

> **Anders** | *26 May 2022* | Writing & Editing | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The networked linking made so much sense.
> 
> **Cons**: It's too much maintenance to have a PKM in Roam, or as I put it 'Too much heavy lifting' meaning coding. Take time from my creative process
> 
> In the beginning, it was super fun and quite a good experience. But down the road, it lost me due to the need for maintenance.
