    Amazing tool for staying organized

    Date: May 30 2021
    Summary

    Even though I'm less than pleased with the change in pricing, I'm still reliant on Evernote since without it, I'd likely never look at my notes at all.

    Positive

    I love Evernote's shortcuts - they really make it a breeze to switch between different notes and manage all sorts of content, especially when I need to insert an image or screenshot.

    Negative

    The non-premium version got rid of many useful features that were once free.

    Brilliant product by Evernote

    Updated: Jan 31 2021
    Summary

    Overall, Evernote is a brilliant product, it works great on multiple usages. The best thing I liked is its reminder and scan, note saver. Highly recommend this tool.

    Positive

    In a busy work culture, Evernote comes very handy for task reminder and note storage. It works brilliantly on different platforms. The interface is clean. The scan and note store feature is the best I use it mostly.

    Negative

    The data upload takes time, no other cons I experienced.

    Great App for Organizing Data

    Date: Sep 07 2021
    Summary

    Overall, I really like Evernote. We have used it for business and personal data organization and data sharing. There are just a couple of issues that made it difficult to continue using for our growing business, like simultaneous note editing and that data input could easily be not saved if you weren't paying attention to it.

    Positive

    The layout is very simple and intuitive. I appreciate how easy it is to share with others. For small companies (ours is under 15 employees) looking for a good, free app to collaborate and share data, this is a great choice.

    Negative

    Two people cannot be working on one Note at the same time. This wasn't typically an issue, but in meetings, we had to assign one person as the notetaker on the agenda, and be sure not to click on the note while following the agenda or it would knock out the other person. We did have a few times where info would randomly disappear, it may have been purely from connection issues, and thinking you were connected to the internet while working, and then opening up a document to find all the date you inputted is gone.

    One step away from truly replacing my notebook

    Date: Jul 08 2021
    Summary

    Overall, I'd say it's a good product. It delivers on what it says it does. I've always relied on a physical notebook but I don't want to sacrifice trees for my own productivity's sake. For now, it helps me a lot but still it will need a lot of customization before it can duplicate the practicality of a real notebook, let alone improve upon it.

    Positive

    Extremely easy to use and setting it up takes only a couple of minutes. The great part is that I can access it both on Desktop and on my browser so I don't have to worry about carrying a notebook around.

    Negative

    There are a lot of features that I can see on my navigation bar but it's a little unclear what each one does and some features look like they do the same thing.
    Adding more depth to the note taking part and a bit more customization would carry this app to the next level.

    Easy note taking with many features but comes at a price.

    Date: Dec 20 2021
    Summary

    There are other note-taking apps that get the job done for free or less. Evernote features come at a cost if they are important to you. Overall the way Evernote organizes your files is what makes it work your money.

    Positive

    Syncing across devices is a huge plus and there are many features to pin and save webpages, create notes and keep things well organized. Evernote can also be used on the iPad now.

    Negative

    The free plan is practically useless. If you want to use the app you're going to have to pay for it.

    My external brain

    Date: Jun 27 2021
    Summary

    Overall, I think Evernote is an amazing software and has essentially become my external brain. I am able to store information I want to access in the future with the click of a button.

    Positive

    I love that you can essentially outsource your memory. When I’m doing research for different projects or topics, I can very easily keep track of important documents, sites, and notes.

    Negative

    When I was first starting to use it, there wasn’t a lot of information about how to use it from Evernote, but I think they’ve changed that since then. There’s also a bunch of YouTube videos out there about best practices.

    Research Made Easy

    Date: Sep 28 2021
    Summary

    I have felt less overwhelmed since using Evernote because it helps me to stay organized and focused when it comes to choosing what I should be researching. I am able to store it in this resource and not leave another tab open with a random article in it.

    Positive

    Evernote has helped me to keep my research and notes organized and succinct. It has allowed me to keep fewer tabs open and save something for later to read or edit. I appreciate this tool and the freedom it has provided me with while learning!

    Negative

    Occasionally the sharing feature can be a bit complicated and not transfer well, but overall has been a helpful tool to me.

    This platform has a great capability that gives you to do multiple actions. Its reminder is very helpful in meeting updates. Overall, Evernote is a top-class task, reminder and note storage platform.

    Positive

    Evernote has endless possibilities that help to make notes, tasks and reminders in an organized manner. Its interface makes Evernote extremely easy to use. Evernote allows to access and update notes on different devices simultaneously. I'm continuously using this for four years.

    Negative

    I don't recommend its mobile app for tasks and notes.

    Date: Oct 09 2021

    Evernote solution with cross-platform accessibility in a variety of ways

    Date: Jan 21 2021
    Summary

    Evernote has become a time-saving digital notepad, as well as a task monitoring software application to quickly write meeting notes, produce work monitoring routines and update my daily tasks.

    Positive

    When creating my notes digitally with Evernote, I can share them with multiple people at the same time and with multiple accessibility attributes. In addition, it also has pre-built layouts for task management and regular planning.

    Negative

    I don't find a way to protect any specific note with a password whenever I show it to others for much better personal privacy. In addition, I usually face synchronization problems between your web and mobile application.

    The best way to have all of your notes on the go

    Updated: May 24 2021
    Summary

    Evernote is my go-to tool to store information that I need when I am out-and-about, or I don't have access to a computer.

    Positive

    Evernote is a fantastic tool to have access to key information no matter where you are. If you find yourself traveling a lot and not always having access to your computer, Evernote is an amazing resource for storing information needed at these key moments. I use it for personal and professional purposes ranging from grocery lists and questions for my doctor to work inventories and presentation notes. You can arrange your content in notebooks, and you can provide notebook access to other Evernote users!

    Negative

    Evernote isn't the best as a collaborative tool. If two users are trying to edit the same note at the same time, it will generally create two separate versions of the same note without merging the different contributions. This can be confusing and cause information to be lost.

    Long time online note taker

    Date: Aug 15 2021
    Summary

    If all you need is a basic online note taker so that your notes can be saved, this works. It could use a visual refresh though.

    Positive

    Can create notes that are stored online and synced between devices. Can include camera pictures, documents, text notes, handwriting, etc.

    Negative

    User interface could use updating. Not as snappy as one note. Free accounts limit the number of devices that can be active at once.

    Evernote

    Date: Apr 08 2021
    Summary

    Evernote is a great way for me to keep all of my notes organized neatly. It also provides an incredible search engine and an excellent "tagging" system.

    Positive

    I love using Evernote. It works perfectly for keeping all of my notes organized in "special stacks." It is easy to search for files in Evernote too.

    Negative

    I'd love to see Evernote developed to include more features, like Microsoft 365 has.

    Date: Apr 20 2021
    Summary

    We like the interface; it is convenient and enjoyable, it stands out in the whole orbit of the projects. We can set many search criteria to simplify the collaboration on the notes. It generates an incredible formation of what can be shared. It is delightful and instrumental between departments. I recommend the software because it has been essential; it defines what it is to have each activity in a set of notes. It is effortless to use and integrates seamlessly with every software or device.

    Positive

    It helps me to coordinate a good quality in the distribution of notes. It is excellent and powerful in distributing tasks; it has given me an extraordinary capacity in each of the activities that I have to perform, making a formidable workflow projection. It works flawlessly.

    Negative

    I consider that the software has deficiencies in support; they do not answer some questions.

    The best note taking app.

    Date: Sep 02 2020
    Summary

    For years now I have used Evernote and I have never felt the need to search for something else. It has the most beautiful interface but it's definitely going to face competition in the time to come.

    Positive

    - I like the simplicity of Evernote above everything else. It is filled with features but most of them are hidden away and what you see is a nice visually appealing and simple interface to write your words down and have them synced across devices seamlessly. I couldn't ask for more.

    Negative

    - Maybe some instant note-taking widgets would be good for Android
    - Yet to see how Evernote handles competitors like Notion

    Mostly Good, Some Limitations and Bugs

    Date: Oct 27 2020
    Summary

    Evernote is good for professional, academic, and personal use. It can be used for managing project, class notes, or things like recipes or diary entries. It's privacy policy isn't great, so I wouldn't suggest putting anything too sensitive into it; and really long text notes can glitch, so I wouldn't suggest it for lengthy novel writing either. If you're going to be uploading a lot of photos or files, you'll need to pay up pretty quickly. There isn't much storage for free accounts, but the price for Evernote isn't that bad either. If you're only using it for text files, you can get by just fine with the free account. Organizing is easy, but file uploading and downloading is slow. Between phone, computer, and browser, I find it works best downloaded to a computer, then in a browser on a PC. The app is still good, it just doesn't work as smoothly as the other two.

    Positive

    Organize notes easily. Notes can include text, images, and uploaded files. There's multiple ways to organize everything, and the character limit per note is quite generous. Visually speaking, it looks similar to other software like this and is very easy to navigate. Great for business or students, who can conveniently organize notes by project or classes. Evernote can be used across multiple platforms, though I find it works best on a computer.

    Negative

    Really long notes sometimes glitch or don't save properly. I wouldn't trust Evernote with super long writing. Uploading files is a slow process, as is opening them. For business or classes, this isn't as much of an issue, but for personal use, the privacy policy of the company leaves much to be desired. Support is very lacking. Don't expect to get much help for any issues. Free accounts are pretty limited on storage.

    Date: Apr 07 2020
    Summary

    I use this every day and the features are invaluable. I use them for keeping personal notes, class notes, even important numbers I use.

    Positive

    Device agnostic, works on my Mac, PC, and Android. Syncs notes, pictures and the feature to auto update location is handy too!

    Negative

    Some features are limited on the mobile platform. Most notably if you copy and paste something with background color or odd fonts you can't change that until you go to a computer and have full features.
