I like Omnifocus, been using it for a while. I require something more flexible to keep track of ideas and thoughts that just are not tasks, but a cloud of things which have no immediate flow to them. Heck, a journal is an example of something I'd like to keep in here.

Anyways, I have to say my first experience with Outliner is a bit disappointing.

Opened up the application for the first time.
1) renamed the root of the untitled document is loaded by default to: "Journal"
2) recorded an entry under the first topic and gave it some text.
3) attempted to play back the recording by clicking on the recorded item. Received error that it must be saved first. Huh? Why should I save something if I don't even know if I like what I said.
4) fine, so I save. Choose a file name. And receive the error: The document could not be saved.
5) Tried save-as. Same problem
6) After a few minutes I get the lovely error again, but this time "The document untitled could not be saved.

You know, when you encounter a bug like this while trying to do the very first thing, it is really a crushing feeling: "oh shit, did I just spend 60$ on a piece of bugware"?

I am disappointed.
