KADOOGAN I trialled this for a while, and recently paid to register. To be honest it was one of the easier buying decisions I have made. I had previously tried DEVONthink and EagleFiler. Whilst DEVONthink is a good piece of software I found it took too long to start up, and it's method of using it's own database to store my files was a big issue for me. Databases can become corrupted so as well as storing all my files in DEVONthink I had to keep the original files as well. Both EagleFiler and Together do not work this way, your files are kept in their original format, so even if you experience a problem with the program your files are still accessible from Finder. My main reasons for choosing Together over EagleFiler were mainly the user interface, which I find much nicer in Together, and the way it deals with saving emails. EagleFiler seems to keep emails in separate mailboxes which means you can't have them in the same folder as PDF's or txt files, and it's difficult or impossible to access them directly from the Finder (maybe there is a way round this but at this point I found Together which didn't have the issue). Together simply accepts .eml files which it stores in the same folder as all your other docs, or whatever folder you choose. The one thing I can think of that I would like to see is the ability to zoom into images. At the moment it just displays them as full-size if smaller than the display window, or shrinks them to fit the window if the image is bigger. I'd like to see a button to zoom into a small image to make it increase to fit the window. Together is a lovely piece of software that makes browsing your documents a pleasure rather than a chore.
