![]() ![]() The fact that Carbonfin Outliner is still one of the more capable products is a bit bloody sad. OmniOutliner isn’t as good as it purports to be: I’ve found that it slows down drastically as outlines become longer, especially on iOS. ![]() Cloud Outliner 2 is okay, but clearly giving some people problems. There are excellent outliners for one or the other, but very few for both. There’s still a dearth of really good outliners for MacOS and iOS. Then, once the schedule is set, I can create a good-looking PDF of the schedule for distribution. ![]() The columns and inline notes are helpful for planning. For example, planning the events lined up for the historic site where I volunteer. They say their service is better because the others are not set up to handle the package files used by OmniOutliner (and their other apps, OmniFocus, etc.).Īll in all, I haven’t found it overly inviting to use OO, though I do for some specific outlines, where the features of OO are required, and it is perfectly functional for those purposes. This is free, but it isn’t as simple as Dropbox or even iCloud. To me the main drawback is that they encourage you to use their proprietary sync-service, OmniSync. It’s when you want to make use of the columns that it starts to feel a bit clunky, though I’m not sure there’s a way around that on a device like the iPad. Building a simple outline on the iPad is pretty standard. I haven’t experienced any crashes, but my outlines are not big, sprawling things. I can’t say that I use it extensively, but I do use it. I have OmniOutliner installed on both my MacBooks and on my iPad Air. Apparently its files can also be accessed by desktop outliners via Dropbox as OPML.

What are people’s experiences with it on this forum? How is sync? How is it for simple outlining on the the iPad or iPhone?Īccording to the reviews for the OS X version of Omni Outliner it is very crash prone, so it doesn’t sound like spending all that money would solve the crashing problems I’m facing with Cloud Outliner. I see they just released a new version, but it is very expensive and there are quite a lot of negative reviews for such a costly program. A few years ago I looked at it again but didn’t buy it at the time because there was no sync solution.
