Evernote wants to be the best productivity & note-taking app once again. Get Evernote: toolfinder.co/go/evernote
I do love the new speed of development now. I have been trying to look for other alternatives, but somehow I keep returning to Evernote for its feature and simplicity. I hope that when they are done laying out the foundation, they will incorporate new features that make Evernote great again.
Evernote's superpower is it's search capability. Everything in Evernote is full text indexed and its easy to find everything. I have essentially eliminated paper files from my life by scanning everything into Evernote. Nothing comes close to Evernote to being a virtual file cabinet. Even text in photos and attached documents is indexed making finding things very easy. It's cross platform capability means that you always have access to all of your files and documents from anywhere you have Internet access. Lots of apps can handle note taking but Evernote's super power is the note/file storage and retrieval capability. Now if they would just respond to customers better and stop screwing up the Gmail web clipper, that would be heaven. I like the new features but storage/search/retrieval is still why I love Evernote and cannot live without. I don't know why they don't emphasize this more.
This has been an unexpected but very welcome change to the old workhorse Evernote. I'm in too deep to ever quit it. So it's nice to finally see an update that didn't include more bad than good.
Premium user since 2009. Evernote sent me a survey asking what requirements would keep me using Evernote. I listed a local version (gone), keep the web clipper at least as great as it was (half of them are now blank except for the title), being able to get rid of the distractions like widgets on the homepage (now even worse), never losing my notes (not quite as bad as it was maybe), and a reasonable price ( not even close). I can do all the new features more reliably and quickly on Google Keep and Calendar. I don't want or need AI pilfering through my notes. I certainly don't need an app that deigns to decide what's important for me today. So no, I don't see any use case for the new, improved Evernote at one-quarter of the price they're charging. Not that things were good under Ian, either, but I agreed to give Bending Spoons a chance. They're driving me away faster than ever.
I'm really appreciating the increased transparency in general about what exactly they're up to. It feels like Evernote has been too quiet for too long. Hopefully things will only get better from here.
It's difficult to abandon Evernote after you built all your digital life around it
I had already cancelled my renewal in April but was impressed with all the improvements, with a lot of communication and transparency from the team. Made it worth paying for, for me.
I think Evernote is the balanced note-taking app between Notion (too complicated and without offline mode), google keep/apple note(too simple without task management) and Craft (good note taking app but no task managements).
After bending spoon speeds up the development, I’m quite satisfied with the change and the operating speed of the app. It’s still the easiest note-taking app for me. Hope bending spoon can keep going like this. Good thing is that they will tell you what’s the next function they are going to launch which provides me something to expect for.
As to the price, I’m in an annual subscription plan when they provide a special discount on the official website quite some time ago. The price is good for me.
I love Evernote and appreciate the new features!
I can't imagine ever going back to evernote at the current price.
Price price price 🤤🤤🤤
@@flavio6325 Don't get me wrong. There is more to dislike than just price.
@@firesoul453 Here we see an employee from some company from another notes application. For who you work? Microsoft? Apple? Other?
Almost 200 bucks yeah, they’re 🥜
I reluctantly resubscribed to Evernote a few days ago. I think it does all the note-managing tasks I need, even though none of it is brilliant. I am optimistic that it will continue to get better.
Me too -- FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) -- probably won't sign up for it again -- too many other options out there and I don't even use most of it.
I am actually in the same boat. Did a lot of investigation but when it comes to my n? Ds, Evernote still run with the Crown..
Paying option is fine because you have a more reliable app with regular new features because developers are being paid properly.
It’s worth it for those that are getting revenue from it from jobs and no for normal note takers.
Their high price is insane for normal note takers.
The pricing is a killer for me compared to notion and craft . Won’t be going back to Evernote
Adding their own calendar is a step in the right direction. The redesign of the app is appreciated. I hope they can build on making Evernote more stable than it is right now.
What Bending Spoons did for Evernote is beyond amazing, now in 2024 it's fast, useful and easy to use
They also introduced collapsible Headings. Very useful and welcome change.
I really like the new features. Worth the price.
I really like Evernote but since they've nerfed the free version then I will stay away. Been using Notion and I'll stay there. I use Onenote now and then but I don't like the UI and features on Mac (the focus is more towards Windows).
I re-downloaded the app it's looking beautiful... looked at personal plan of $17.00 per month (Australian)... deleted app. I just can't justify the price per month in Australia.
It is 14.99 USD (22.39 Australian dollars) per month. Absolutely insane. Extremely expensive for an app. In fact, it’s more expensive than a lot of streaming services.
It’s more expensive than Adobe 😭
Liking the improvements! Will give them a bit longer - love the charts, styling, and much of the functionality. But AI has to catch up to provide serious help with writing, and they really have to change the file structure for deeper nesting. It gets silly. Come on EN! Rooting for you to catch up and dominate again! :)
This is of course all very good and interesting. But I still don’t understand why I should pay $130 a year?
How do we not have Due date yet ?
new mobile version..can't even set it up reminder like old version
I can't see the web clipper mentioned? It's by far it's best feature.
this looks too perfect! a little UI design does not suite my taste but it does look very very promising
I am trying to determine what app is best for my 13 year old daughter for School and Dance. For the former, anything more visual is good. For the latter, at a minimum the app must be able to organize videos from her phone. It would be nice if she could markup videos or combine videos, but I realize that is getting into video editing and maybe not worth the time. I assume she will want something that summarizes scholastic content from the web and videos and something that makes flash cards. Again, any app that is visual and can organize videos would be a great help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
i gotta admit evernote def changed for the better this year. they seem to be keeping the promises they made. its got me intrigued but atm im still staying on notion.
You have to admit that Federico has done more developments for Evernote within a few months compared to Ian within several years
AI tool in which we can add all our documents and while writing a new document it can give us suggestions or references from the previous files ?
Honestly, you seem to be quite amazed by the fact that one can create a separate event in Evernote calendar which will not be in your Google Calendar. I personally don't see the point because if I add something in my not taking app's calendar I want to see it reflected on my Google Calendar when I go and have a look at it. Or at least I want to have the option to do so which is not possible at the moment as one can't choose which calendar is adding the event to when creating one in Evernote.
I have been long term Evernote user, and i used to love it when they concentrated just on notes. It not feels like they are focusing on too many features vs making a really good note taking application. The application is very laggy now also compared to before i find.
Still a long way off what I need. Apple pencil capability, export capability. I have an affinity to Evernote. Just want to have ability for pages.
After the current dev took over, Evernote seems to be on a reliable upgrade and development path. Its become my trusty notebook again.
Dont understand why people think a good notebook worth its salt would ever be free. Afe people supposed to do work for free?
I went back to Evernote. There’s simply no better place to collect everything.
Good video. Thx! Evernote’s price is out of reach of most people. I just don’t see the value for $130 USD per year in spite of the improvements that Bending Spoons has made. I would consider it if they had a subscription option $60 USD per year I would consider it.
I honestly don't understand their strategy. Isn't it better to earn more money by lowering the price for the personal plan so more people can afford it?
Nice but no thanks! They will have to keep raising prices in the future, as they keep loosing customers :)
Your kidding....had Evernote until they stuck it to me... never again.....😅
Before Bending Spoons took over, people were paying for Evernote when there were too many issues such as syncing problems and extended loading times to open the note. Now that Bending Spoons fixed these core issues and improved the user experience people are saying they dont want to pay at all. Thats crazy!
There are so many better Knowledge Management tools now. Going back to Evernote feels like a retrograde step.
They raised their price beyond the value I was receiving. Apple notes for me now.
You should make a video on "how hard it is to cancel an Evernote subscription". First, when one clicks on "Billing", it will create an error page asking to contact customer service (without a link). Then, on customer service, it will ask to fill out a FORM with information you can only get from the "Billing" tab. Infinite loop... It has become the most sketchy piece of software I've ever came across.
So should I consider importing my notes now? I've been with Evernote since 2017 when I created my first notes this is sad. 🤔😕
Too expensive. Way too expensive. They’ll find this out the hard way.
Good things happening in Evernote!
Works out a $3 per week for me - money well spent, given how much I use it. Like the direction it is going in too ...
Evernote took a horrible turn. I pay 5 times more for much less than I had 3 years before. It was local, fast, reliable. It is now online, incredibly slow, and lacks basic things like selecting more than 100 notes. I am pissed and disappointed. After 10 years, I feel relieved to be able to take move notes out of Evernote and I am never looking back.
Totally agree! I am NOT happy... I swear at this piece of slow garbage like 10x/day now. I've been paid customer way over 10 years. It used to be fantastic!... THEN "Bending Perfectly Good Spoons till GARBAGE!" 'FIXED' it!!!
Yes, every time I open the application there ARE updates!!!!!
I agree with how useful widgets are, but they have taken them away from the Home screen on mobile, so Evernote is no longer my solution for mobile use.
There's a shortcut called "Widgets" that gives access to the previous home and widgets.
@@Baleooto Thanks, but that's still 2 taps to get to where I used to be on opening the app. At the very least the shortcut for Widgets should be on the Home page. Ideally, give us a choice of which home page to load. Meanwhile, Notion is working fine for me.
Paid EN sub here since a few years and it's absolutely garbage
I miss the old "Legacy" layout, and nothing works now, also plenty of critical bugs
I'm looking for a way out but I have such a huge sunk cost in this app..
Они заблокировали Россию. Но я все равно пользуюсь с 2012 года. Хорошее приложение.
New evernote is best !!!!
There are too many other cheaper options that will do most of the things that Evernote will do.
Too expensive for me.
I'll save you 17 minutes : no
the price is ridiculous now
Waaaay too expensive
Evernote is one of the very apps that can handle two languages at once. Notion, Capacities and Heptabase fail.
Evernote is so bad lol
They lost my trust. So I won't consider them again, ever!
Why
Short answer: No... It's not worth it in 2024.
The former owners of Evernote had only one concern: looking good in photos and political circles. They just wanted to use the app to do politics. The current Italian owners realized the mistake of the previous teams and put an end to it. Now Evernote is in good hands, who are thinking about the users and the app, what the app is for.
BS
@@fred.c.johnston What is BS? You?
Oh sorry, I forgot you're getting paid by Evernote...
They've completely completely completely wrecked it so far...
Just today, I've had two more old lost attachments... lol what a crazy outfit!!!
The day Evernote presents graphs for related notes, the other apps will start to shake
