Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 733 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the application's ability to organize notes and information, finding it a reliable tool for storing important documents and managing their workflow. They often highlight its usefulness for quick note-taking, cross-platform syncing, and the convenience of having their notes accessible across various devices. Some users also commend its powerful features like OCR reading and web clipping, which enhance its utility as a digital filing system. However, a significant number of people express dissatisfaction with the pricing, noting substantial increases that make the service expensive and less competitive compared to alternatives. Many also report issues with the application's performance, citing it as slow, bloated, and prone to frequent updates that introduce bugs rather than improvements, leading to a degraded user experience.

Evernote has been useful for me regardless of what email address I had, or where I worked, or what phone I had. I am a long-time fan and I don't even use all the bells and whistles. It's a trusted pla... See more

Too expensive now

Your new pricing schedule has made it unavailable to me. I have had to go down to basic and the limitations (tags, devices etc) make it unuseable. Looking for an alternative and I will quit completely. Shame, because I thought you had a good product.

I have used Evernote for 16 years and I love it! For me there is not a better program out there. I use it for work, ministry, and just to gather my thoughts. You will not be disappointed when using Evernote. I highly recommend it.

Improved by way too expensive

Evernote has improved immensely lately. However, it is a note-taking app priced similar to other full suites of software. The price is simply outrageous and I'll be moving to a different app. I'm sorry to do this, because it's a huge pain, but I don't feel like I have any choice.

Genealogy notes use only.

I use Evernote strictly for my genealogy notes, so the recent price increase is a tough one for me. I am not a business and all of these new frills and whistles are probably great for some, but I am only using the search for people/locations, in my considerable notes. A1 is not meaningful to me, no charts, etc. It is great and I have been a user for several years now. Consider the price for folks like me! Thanks.

I have been an Evernote user for over…

I have been an Evernote user for over ten years. Today I was told my two-user Teams plan (already a steep £359 a year) is being discontinued, and that if I do nothing before renewal my account will be "automatically moved" to Enterprise Unlimited at £14,800 a year.

A 40-fold jump aimed at a household account, with features I will never use: SCIM provisioning, SSO, a dedicated Customer Success Manager.
What makes it worse is there is no path down. No option to drop to a Personal plan, no proportionate tier for a small user. The only choices on offer are an enterprise contract or the door.
The supposed justification is the recent AI work, which has been underwhelming at best. After a decade of loyalty and steadily rising fees, being handed a £14,800 ultimatum is the clearest possible signal to leave. I am now moving ten years of notes to another system. Avoid unless you want your pricing held hostage at renewal.

The product *USED* to work standalone…

The product *USED* to work standalone on multiple PC's without requiring a constant internet connection. That is no longer the case. WebClipping, My Primary Use of Evernote, to retain articles and avoid link-rot, has ceased to work reliably. Constant updates with minimal relevant 'improvements' to me require frequent re-authentication which is time consuming, and again requires an internet connection. And not to mention the STEEP PRICE HIKE. Obsidian looks better and better. I was among the first 5k adoptees of Evernote. It's been an interesting ride.

Best app to organise your thoughts and ideas

I have used Evernote for many years and it has never let me down. I use it multiple times a day, whenever an idea strikes and it helps keep my writing muscles fit. Have used it both in school and work. Love the notebook and tag system, which really helps me keep everything organised.

I love Evernote, but there are some improvements to be done

I love Evernote, that´s why i have stayed a loyal costumer for years.
But I do miss Norwegian as a language for "reading in and converting to text", but I must say that even though I can not choose Norwegian as a language when I read, it does an ok job when I choose "recognize language".

I also really wish all templates were automatically baked in to evernote, that I didn´t have to doewnload every single one, it takes forever!

You really need a template that functions like mic. excel, that sums up the cost/numbers for you. Or send me an mail with what template it is if you already have one, because I can´t find it, and desperately need one.

So useful but getting very expensive

I find Evernote an extremely useful app for storing my stamps and dies. It's very powerful and will "translate" the words on my stamps. I gave it three stars because the price went from free to over $100 and I've heard a rumor that the price is going up again, by a lot. Sadly, I have too much time invested to switch to another app.
