Well as usual, to figure out whether or not this GAOTD is worth downloading, I recommend you reading Ashraf's review although, as far as I know, CINTA NOTES, mentioned by Ashraf as better FREE alternative, is unfortunately no longer FREEWARE!!

In my humble view this GAOTD is one of the best note-taking app in the market right now, thus is worth downloading despite being unable to tag notes.

Can also be used to store not only notes but also contact details, financial info and even schedules though alarms.

So overall I give it a Thumbs UP despite the lack of Tag notes!!

However 34 BUCKS for an app like this is quite expensive, taking into account that there are great FREE ALTERNATIVES out there, anybody here (included Ashraf and the developer of this GAOTD) seem to be aware of, which do even more for FREE!!

But relax folks...Giovanni is here to help you...for FREE of course!!

BEST FREE ALTERNATIVES (besides EVERNOTE)

* Portable MyShelf Desktop 1.1 (==> my Personal First Choice)
Freaking awesome FREE multiplatform (Windows, MAC, LINUX) tool designed to keep in sync your most important notes, pictures, links and text snippets of any kind always at your disposal in your mobile phone, tablet, notebook or PC desktop. Notes are very easy to find because, unlike this GAOTD, this program creates THUMBNAILS for every new entry, also enabling users to create and edit their own tags.
Best of all, unlike other similar (paid & free) apps it does not rely on any darn cloud service out there, so with this magic tool you can ki$$ any kind of hassle (privacy concerns, service downtimes network issues and above all the monthly service fees and damn premium features fees for storing and syncing your data) goodbye for good.
Amazing, isn't it?

* Portable KNote
Very secure and easy to use FREE note taking tool featuring both integrated file management and blogging capabilities.
Unlike this GAOTD, notes of the same topic can be easily grouped together using TAGS, and are even encrypted and stored on users'local HD, flash drives, network drives or even on file hosting cloud services such as Dropbox.
This magic FREE tool can preserve the format of URLs and contents pasted in from the web, enabling users to attach files & folders to their notes via drag/drop or copy/paste, as well as connect DIFFERENT NOTES together. Notes can even be shared to your friends and relatives via a PRIVATE LINK published to the KNote Blog, which can be accessed only by those you send the link to, thus giving them the ability to leave a comment. Cool, isn't it?

I had version 2.6 from an earlier giveaway. I installed this one into the same folder and the install was very smooth and easy. There are two version, a Free and this Deluxe. We are being offered the Deluxe version which is always a good sign of a fair publisher in my opinion. To see the differences between the two versions, check out this link...

I am happy with this offering but I am sure there are alternatives. Thank you for another good GOTD team and thank you Vladonai Software

@5 (Donna): AllMyNotes simply always encrypts your data before saving it to HDD, therefore, if you have personal diary (with thoughts about your boss), or simply ATM card numbers in to the file, nobody will be able to find/read it by reading binary data content. This is another security lawyer in addition to the access password-protection feature.

@23 (Annabel): It's enough to install and launch the app during the giveaway, and the app on first launch will download and install file named "allmynotes_b547.key" to your PC. This is your license file, just make sure to keep it between system reinstalls. Note: this .key file works for GOTD's version 2.70 only, therefore make sure to keep the Installer of the app too.

Regarding the reliability. I do believe we've created the most stable and self-healing database engine among the competition, you can read details here
