Sometimes working on a research project, assignment or degree dissertation becomes a pain when there are too many pdfs, documents and research papers lying around in different folders of your computer. Organizing so many documents becomes a priority and as well as citing the works in a correct format.

It exports citation, allows collaboration and also allows synchronization between computers. The software is available for Windows, Mac and Linux and most importantly its free of cost!
