"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.

"BTN EVERNOTE USE"
5/5

This software becomes more valuable the more I use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Frustrating Experience with Limited Transparency"
0.5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

I use Evernote for taking notes and organizing me and my stuff. The initial setup was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

I dislike the lack of transparency in the usage of my subscription, like not having a clear number for used and available notes or disconnects. I'm frustrated by buttons that don't work, like the 'Exit and do not upgrade' button. Lately, it's been slow and buggy, and I'm not happy with the poor AI. Customer support is a letdown as well, with responses taking over 5 days and often providing wrong or useless information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Can we make our Evernote data more ACTUALLY portable?"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Evernote?

For legacy users, it's a great way to capture information and come back to it later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evernote?

Interoperability and data migration are predictably difficult. Advertised as easy to connect with Notion - but in reality it's easy for the note transfers from Evernote to Notion can get hung up on any errant tag or character, which then prevents any additional notes from being copied over. Making it easy to take one's data and run is not in the interests of the company that produces Evernote. I do feel somewhat trapped in Evernote, unable to effectively go anywhere else with my data.
