It is one of the ugliest, most complex to configure, pieces of software I've ever used. It's also the best ebook management tool out there. I love Calibre.
I’ve heard Calibre Web has a better UI and experience. Can anyone weigh in on whether that is true? I’m mostly looking for a better way to manage my book library on KOReader (Kindle) than just putting things into 3 directories (reading, to read, read) and using syncthing to copy them to the equivalent folders on my device.
It has a significantly better UI than Calibre, no question. I only use it to manage my ebook library and send them to my various Kindle email addresses. I can't compare any more advanced features because I didn't use them in Calibre and I still don't in CW.
