Evernote

“I'm 79 years old and I still work as a programmer. One of my biggest challenges is that I have trouble remembering many of the things I need to keep in mind; that's why keeping a journal is a necessity for me. I have tried several tools and, for me, Evernote is the best for taking notes, searching through all my notes, crossing data, etc.”

“I've used Evernote for more than a decade but have recently totally given up due to (1) useless AI bloat leading to enshittification, (2) attempting to justify a drastic price increase on said enshittified so-called "features". When the product can't even do a simple search in an intuitive manner like when the product was less enshittified, I say it's time to move on. The migration process out of Evernote took some time, but there are tools out there, so don't get trapped by this once-great but”

“Since March 2013, Evernote holds all the information I used to put in my Palm Pilot before that system died. Notes contain contact details and information about all business and professionals we interact with, restaurants, stores, Doctors, etc., as well as family members. Other notes are working first drafts of new web pages I am creating. Emails that require time and research before sending get drafted in a note. As our family has two desktops, two tablets, two smartphones and a laptop, we ”

“I've had Evernote for ten years. The app keeps getting better. I'm a writer and I use it for capturing tidbits of interesting knowledge- gematria, eucatastrophe- and hoarding quotes that I like. I keep finding reasons to use it. Planning, making notes, capturing images-all the kinds of things that don't have an actual place anywhere else. I think of it as my treasure chest. What long-forgotten phrase, image, or source will I find in that treasure chest that will ignite my imagination to move for”

“The fact that the service has been around for a long time and delivers what you pay for... all-round thumbs up ”

“These are friggin' scammers. I've been a subscriber for years and now they've changed the subscription options so that unless I upgrade to some advanced plan, I lose most of the work I've done in the past years. I was downgraded so that I can't create any new notes, nor can I use what I've already created on the connected devices. Absolute scammers. If you see 'Evernote' anywhere, run! Don't leave a single penny to these scoundrels.”

“It's such a shame that a good note taking app is now pushing away the people that supported it from the start by Doubling, yes doubling their pricing. As a user since about 2009 I am now looking for alternatives. ”

“I really love Evernote but was very disappointed with the huge increase for the premium version. I did pay for it this year, but I can hardly say that the huge increase has been worth it. If I was not already so attached to Evernote, I would not have paid for it. I will be looking for alternatives for the future.”

“I've used Evernote for 10+ years. 90% of my usage is to clip articles info from a browser. Evernote is quick and totally reliable.”

“The meeting recording feature is very brittle. I tried it a couple of times and both experiences were bad. The first, it transcribed my meeting in a language I didn't use. The seocnd time, the recording crashed in a middle of the meeting. Like you said, the AI summary is very poor. Someone said change the prompt -- okay, but Evernote should make the default prompt a better one. Also, why the time limitation? You are a *note taking* app. Meeting note taking is supposed to be your strength.”

“I am struggling to login to evernote via the web. I get this and it just sits there at 0% forever. Anyone know how to get past this? I want to try and raise a support ticket but when I try to login I get this again so can't!! Edit: I have looked in the activity logs and all I have is hundreds of lines of the following: [2026-01-20T15:16:48.294Z] ERROR: en-conduit-web-worker: fetchSQLitePrebuiltDB Error fetching prebuilt DB TypeError: Failed to fetch [2026-01-20T15:16:48.295Z] ERROR: en-conduit-w”

“haven't been able to login to my Evernote account in months. Over a decade's worth of diligently saved notes - gone. Poof. Vamoose. Now, I no longer have access to the email I originally signed up to Evernote with (it was hijacked and held for ransom almost exactly 2 years ago. I didn't pay the ransom). But it's impossible to reach a human at Evernote support, and their CS automation just keeps bouncing me back "recover your email first" messages when I try to open a ticket. posting here without”

“Their note taking is very good and not like other apps as it does not just write anything down but it saves information and connects it with other information and attaches the relevant documents, it made projects easier, while other note apps I tried would just write anything down and it would not help me. What I also found helpful is that it keeps study material in one place and it quickly searches my notes and it keeps me organised by using tags for information. The support it showed me was in”

“het gebruik van Evernote als notitieprogramma verdient wel 4,5 ster. De relatie van Evernote (EN)met mij klant verdien 0 sterren: ik heb eigenlijk nog nooit een langdurige relatie zó slecht zin verlopen over een zo lange tijd: - EN heeft geen enkel respect voor mij als individuele klant en betalende gebruiker: - ik ben al meer dan een jaar bezig om een ernstig probleem in de communicatie met onze niet betalende klanten, met wie we notes delen, aan te kaarten. Het probleem wordt niet opgelost e”

“For some reason, each Evernote version eliminates features I have come to depend on. It is now extremely hard to use the search function to recover specific material. I wrote to ask for some support and never received an acknowledgement or reply. ”

“What I like best about Evernote is how easy it is to keep notes organized and accessible in one place. I can create separate notebooks for different topics, use tags to organize information, and quickly search for notes when I need them. I also like that notes can contain more than just plain text, such as checklists, links, images, and attachments. The interface makes it convenient to update existing notes and keep important information together instead of having it scattered across different a”

“Everyone in the AI space is talking about obsidian, not Evernote. Why? Because Evernote locked themselves up and its customers in. No MCP, no CLI, no API, no way in our out. People are actually switching from Evernote to obsidian – a note taking app that looks like VScode for gods sake and has a disaster of a sync solution! NORMIES RATHER USE WHAT IS BASICALLY A VSCODE FORK FOR NOTES THAN EVERNOTE. Wake up, Bending Spoons! Your money is not in locking people in and force feeding them your subpar”

“I've been an evernote subscriber since 2008, so long that it has become part of the family DNA for note storage, recipes, travel planning etc. It has been our mega file drawer forever (everything except tasks, which I do on Todoist). Now it is so buggy and sluggish and ungainly that we need to find a new home. We are a mac and windows family so we need cross platform sync and my work will no longer allow me to use icloud for syncing. Anything out there that: syncs across devices without iclo”

“I’ve been using Evernote for a while, and it has become one of my favorite productivity apps. I use it to organize notes, save ideas, and keep track of important tasks. Everything stays synced across my devices, so I can access my notes whenever I need them. The search function is fast, and I like how easy it is to organize everything with notebooks and tags. The web clipper is also very useful for saving articles and research. The app is simple to use, reliable, and helps me stay organized ever”
