LaTeX: This software is specially used for typesetting scientific papers. Support complex typesetting requirements such as mathematical formulas, charts and references, which is very useful for people who need to write scientific papers. EndNote: This is a document management software that can help you manage and organize references and automatically generate a list of references.

Endnote came out earlier. With its excellent document management function, Endnote can be said to be the document management software with the largest number of users and the highest proportion in the market.

Domestic software NoteExpress and NoteFirst have done a good job, which can support Chinese documents well. However, NE still has some problems in dealing with the details of the national standard, for example, it can't automatically distinguish the Chinese Pinyin in English documents, and it can't automatically form a bilingual reference between Chinese and English.

NoteExpress is a domestic document management software, which is said to support Chinese documents and Chinese databases better than EndNote. There are also many users in China, but this software is commercial. Student version 198, permanent version 698 yuan.

Endnote is the oldest document management software. I'm just a beginner, so I don't comment. For Mendeley, I think it has two irreplaceable features: 1) The best PDF file management function at present, and its ability to capture the metadata of PDF files has surpassed that of Zotero at present (in early 2020).
