Our verdict on MyInfo
MyInfo is a Windows-based note-taking and personal information manager for individuals, students, researchers, and small teams. It combines rich-text notes with notebooks, sections, tags, attributes, metadata, templates, custom forms, attachments, links, and to-dos. Web clipping covers pages, articles, text, images, and PDFs, while locally stored data supports offline operation. It is best suited to Windows users building a structured personal research library rather than people seeking a broad, cloud-first collaboration workspace.
Its strongest advantage is depth for organizing and retrieving information. Boolean search and filtering extend across note content, and attachment-content indexing helps bring files into the same research workflow. Backlinks and note links support connected reference collections, while custom metadata, forms, and note views offer more control than a basic text notebook. Encryption, backups, revisions, and export tools add useful data-management options. These features make MyInfo a strong fit for research-heavy work where organization and retrieval matter more than a minimal interface.
The pricing model is straightforward but requires an upfront commitment. MyInfo Professional and Portable costs $99 one time and includes one full year of free updates and new features. Additional updates cost $49 per year, can be canceled, and allow continued use of the current version. A 30-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan. The platform focus also narrows its fit: the desktop product is for Windows, and the Chrome extension is an add-on rather than a standalone web version. Choose MyInfo for structured offline research notes on Windows; choose an alternative if you need wider platform coverage or a broader integration ecosystem.
