Soberggg's initial evaluation of the dot matrix PKM

I carefully read the original article of soberggg evaluation three times, one word at a time.

 

Thank you very much for the detailed evaluation of soberggg! We have gained a better understanding of the design principles and have a clearer and clearer understanding of future development [do the best Chinese Personal Knowledge Management Software].
Reply to your own ideas for the questions raised in this article. At the same time, we also hope that soberggg can further evaluate the following features: quick search, penetration display, multi-File Association, automatic backup, and other features specific to PKM professional software.
Thank you again!

 

Summary:
The "dot matrix Personal Knowledge Base Management System" is different from the pkm2 and mybase commonly used in the past, and the focus of several software systems is different. For example, pkm2 focuses on content collection and network publishing. Mybase focuses on efficient and big data management. However, in contrast, the dot matrix Personal Knowledge Base Management System is very specific to the current local document management, in addition, the management mode is to manage local files and PKM files by establishing the file ing relationship. Therefore:

Advantages:
It is very convenient for local management, and provides many features not available in explorer, which is much more convenient and powerful than the traditional directory management mode. Of course, the support for office is also good, and the document format is well preserved.

Disadvantages:
1. the most unacceptable is the software interface and usage habits.
Software that has to spend a lot of time pondering and learning will definitely affect its user base. As the author wrote on QQ, "the most difficult thing is to develop habits." The Management System of the Personal Knowledge Base brings me new habits. It is better to use existing user habits than to create your own habits. Just as WPS 2007 imitates the Office series, it is difficult to create and use habits, it is better to use the most common method for users directly.
--- Reply: in fact, "habits" here refer to "habits of Personal Knowledge Management", rather than the usage habits of software you understand. If the user is still stuck in the "Windows Resource Manager" usage habits, then he cannot "experience the characteristics of professional PKM software.
In general, the dot matrix PKM is a professional PKM software. Of course there will be many different things. For example, the concept: knowledge System, classification, knowledge point, File Association, title search, automatic backup, and other professional software. Pointer PKM, not a simple "Document Manager ".

2. The network publishing function is not available at present.
One of the reasons why you like pkm2 is convenient network publishing. Mybase also has related plug-ins, and even tested a dedicated online edition server software for online edition Personal Knowledge Management. Now the evennote is even more thorough. It not only provides servers, but also develops mobile terminal versions, such as for iPhone terminals... Today, as office software is gradually networked, it is difficult to develop PKM software without relevant functions.
--- Reply: Well, yes! It will develop slowly. However, the personal part of "PKM" will be refined at present, and "p" will be used in pkm, so the sharing function is not the focus.

3. Lack of communication
The author of the dot matrix Personal Knowledge Base Management System has worked very hard to build a software program, and has been doing it for many years. However, the big feeling is that there is too little communication with users. Look at the current software, open sourceCommunityLet alone, too many great software has been born. It's hard to understand any well-known software that doesn't even have its own bbs. After all, each software has its own user group, not only software, but also each product has its own user group. If you cannot organize these user groups, you can only rely on scattered soldiers to gain information and support, which is far from meeting your actual needs!
To put it bluntly, the first thing you need to understand is the user's idea! Instead of the user's thoughts that the author thinks. There is a fundamental difference!
--Reply: because the host is abroad and bandwidth is insufficient, no BBS is available. I plan to "be the best Chinese Personal Knowledge Management Website in China"
