EndNote vs JabRef

Intelligent reference manager that lets you store and manage an unlimited set of references, perform full-text searches, insert properly formatted references and create bibliographies as you write your research. The program uses a system of tags and rules to automatically organize references throughout a project, and AI to identify key findings. You can ask the AI ​​additional questions and receive answers from the text to delve deeper into the topic. It also can translate whole PDFs. EndNote also includes collaborative tools that allow to share entire libraries or subsets of references, set access rights, view activity logs to stay informed about progress.

JabRef is an open-sourced, cross-platform citation and reference management software. It uses BibTeX and BibLaTeX as its native formats and is therefore typically used for LaTeX. It can retrieve and link full-text articles, fetch complete bibliographic information based on ISBN, DOI, PubMed-ID and arXiv-ID, import new references directly from the web browser extension. You can complete and improve bibliographic data by comparing with curated online catalogues such as Google Scholar, Springer or MathSciNet, automatically rename and move associated files according to customizable rules, group links into hierarchical collections, organize articles based on keywords, tags, search terms or your manual assignments. Advanced search and filter features are also available.
