Perbedaan Sesungguhnya
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Capacities stands out with Object-based note system and Media management. Roam Research counters with Bidirectional linking and Block-level references.
Capacities's Achilles heel: young product with missing features — no api, limited integrations, and collaboration is early-stage. Roam Research's: no free plan, web-only (no native desktop), and the community has shrunk as obsidian and logseq grew. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Kesimpulan
If you value object-based note system and pemikir visual yang menginginkan, go with Capacities. If peneliti dan penulis yang matters more, Roam Research is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
