What's The Major Difference Between ENCARTAR & BRITANICA? by Wisetalk1: 8:58am On Jan 30, 2013
I have been using Encartar for sometime now. Its a wonderful software that features several information and research resources offline. Most people use Encartar because it doesnt require internet connection to access valuable information. The unfortunate thing is that they stopped at the 2009 version, so all the information it features are limited to events below 2009. Someone recommended 'Britanica' a software he claims he has been using and contains more information than Encartar and that it even has 2012 version, which contains some recent information. Fellow ICT experts, lets discuss. Have you used both? What's their major difference? Which is most preferable? Apart from the two, which other software can one use to get information offline?

I find encatar to be more comprehensive. It also has more info than britanica. Britanica also seems to be bias with information.

But why did they stop Encatar at 2009? The information is now limited to that particular year. Apart from these two, do you know any other software that features offline information?
