Evernote Reviews

Summary: Overall, Evernote is a note-taking application with lots of unique features and a smooth user interface, it is present on all the platforms.

Positive: - Evernote lets you search the note by keywords or tags present anywhere in the note.
- The user interface of the application smooth and responsive.
- It is available on all the platforms with consistent performance and functionalities.
- The notes gets synced quickly across all the devices without consuming a lot of data.

Negative: - The free account lets you use it with a limited number of devices.
- The subscription model is a bit pricey.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Summary: This is a review of Evernote Basic version as I didn't opt for an upgrade to Premium or Business versions.

Taking notes with pen and paper was a custom for me until I installed this app. I even used this app to make quick notes in my mobile when I was in Humanities class during my college days.

Apart from my curricular activities that require lots of note making and sharing, I had had a habit of writing some ideas I felt that were intriguing to inspect on. But using pen and paper every time a bulb glows over my head was a hassle. This problem even though tiny was there for me before using this app.

Without hesitation, I would describe this app as a wonder because it made note making so easy that transcribing what I feel and think is effortless. Adding pictures and audio bytes are hassle free. The only times I feel that Evernote basic version was not good enough for me is when I try to sync all my notes as the data limit you can sync is set to 2 MB.

Positive: Simplified UI.
Easy to share notes.
Student friendly basic version.
Note making is so easy that I shifted from using pen and paper to this.

Negative: The size of data you could sync among devices is low on Evernote Basic.

Cannot edit a shared note simultaneously like you do in google docs.

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.
