"Evernote Keeps Me Organized with Fast Search, Sync, and a Handy Web Clipper"
5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

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 every day. Although some advanced features require a paid subscription, the overall experience has been excellent. I would recommend Evernote to anyone looking for a dependable note-taking and organization app for work, school, or personal projects. It has definitely improved the way I manage my information and daily workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Evernote: A Versatile, Powerful Hub for Notes, Projects, and Web Clipping"
5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

"Evernote has been an essential part of my daily productivity workflow for a long time, and I can confidently say it is one of the best note-taking applications available today. What I love most about Evernote is its versatility; it is not just a place to jot down simple notes, but a powerful hub for managing complex projects. The web clipper feature is an absolute game-changer, allowing me to save articles, research, and web pages directly into my notebooks with ease. The search functionality is also incredibly robust, as it can even recognize text within images and PDFs, which saves me a lot of time when I need to retrieve specific information. The organization system using tags and notebooks helps me keep everything structured and accessible, which significantly enhances my overall efficiency and organization."

What do you dislike about Evernote?

While Evernote is highly efficient, the downside is that the free version has become quite limited in terms of device synchronization and monthly upload capacity. Additionally, as the application has grown with many features, it can occasionally feel a bit heavy or slow to load on older devices. A more streamlined performance and a more generous free tier would definitely improve the user experience for casual users." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Evernote Keeps Getting Better: Feature-Rich Notes with Helpful AI Transcription"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

I have been using Evernote since it was first released. Evernore has grown the list of features since the start, some like reminders I never use, but it does show the developer's attention to detail. I use the system for writing and not taking. I do like the new AI features so I can record a meeting and have it translete to text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

used Evernote before to keep notes and organise small things. At the beginning it felt simple and useful, especially for quick notes and saving ideas in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over time it started to feel a bit heavy for simple use. Also the free version became more limited, so it was not as convenient as before. I found myself using it less and less. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Note-Taking Across All Devices"
5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

Evernote functions seamlessly across all my Apple devices, syncing my notes so I can access and edit them wherever I am. It supports formatted text, images, collapsible outlines, hyperlinks, tables, file attachments, audio recordings with text transcription, and more. I like how it can organize notes into Notebooks and can share notes with others.

The app has proven to be both reliable and effective, fulfilling all of my note-taking requirements. I use it daily for both business and personal notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

There's nothing I dislike about Evernote. It's not as visually flashy as some competing apps, but after trying others I always come back to Evernote. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Garbage app. Lost data. $249/yr"
0/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

Garbage app. I've lost data in the app. Pricing went from $59/yr to $249/yr and they automatically charged me without authorization.

Interesting also how they have 1.5 stars on Trustpilot and 4.5 stars here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

It's a basic note taking app that they charge $249 a year for and limit features so you have to upgrade. Use another app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Straightforward and Reliable, But Limited Free Version"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

I appreciate Evernote for being quick and reliable, with a straightforward interface. I find the syncing feature works well, making my notes easily accessible whenever I need them. It's simple to create and save notes instantly without worrying about structure or formatting. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy, and I never had any issues using Evernote on my phone for quick note-taking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

The free version feels quite limited now, which reduces its usefulness for basic note taking. A more generous free tier or simpler pricing would make it more appealing for casual users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Limited Features, Awful Support, and a Suddenly Suspended Evernote Account"
0/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

It had good framework for working both online and offline Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

The functions of the application become very limited in comparison with the competitors. Also the customer support was awful. I have been a user of Evernote for a very long time and one day they just suspended my account, because I used to live in Russia. I ve made an argument that long ago I have left the Russia and now even a citizen of another country, but to no avail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The ultimate Digital Notebook"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

I have been using Evernote within our businesses for in excess of 4+ years, during this period it has been fault free and the tools just keep getting better and better.

It allows us to reduce the amount of double entry work, capturing data and information from one platform and seamlessly pushing that data to another platform.

There is so much you can achieve with Evernote and the array of tools provided, do be fooled it isn't just a digital notebook.

- The software is simple to use, but there are lots of rich features.

- Very cost effective (there is even a Free option which allows you to do so much, but if you can pay the small annual fee and reap the benefits)

- Robust - never had an outage or issue

- Innovation - Evernote are always looking at new tools, partners or making existing processes better

- Integration - Integrates well with so many other 3rd parties software platforms. I connect Evernote with LinkedIn, great when you snap business cards and it finds the person on LinkedIn automatically.

- Cloud-based but also an off-line version too. Syncs well across all devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

There is not much that I don't like to be honest, the fact that Evernote is always making things better can sometimes be a small disadvantage as they layout changes or buttons move or react differently, but this is a small price to pay for the amazing tools at your fingertips.
