Not worth it and they charge you more
After two years of paying $130(!!!!!) a year which already seemed ridiculously high for a notes app, that particular “plan” was eliminated and they automatically billed me at the new, more expensive plan which was NEARLY DOUBLE THE COST. There are absolutely ZERO features here to make this worth $250 a year.

this app SUCKS
evernote used to be an industry leader but not they’re just a textbook of example abject stupidity and mismanagement. with the new owners, Bending Spoons, a significant majority of useful key features are GONE, yet they ask $250 for their defunct platform. multiple notes open on iPad? No. Multiple instances of main grower window on Mac like years before? No. anyone’s worst nightmare is losing their notes. it’s like so bad compared to before that it looks like a conspiracy theory. how could anyone be so stupid? clearly not considering what users want; a blatant disregard. so sad cause was a exceptionally good app back in its day.
one star still app works.

Great solution, but overpriced and Privacy Issues
As a long time user of Evernote, I really enjoy their product and they have done a great job with product enhancements. Their pricing has become obnoxious for their paid version. Their support also forces you to submit your activity logs which (may contain private information and they advise you to scrub your notes). Totally understand needing this if there is an escalation but not for first pass support. Now I get the fun of migrating away from Evernote…

Pushing on their paid subscription got too much
I understand there are useful features for paid subscription. But having messages and videos about the subscription every time I try to open my note is too intrusive and time wasting. I had to move on to use different note application. There are plenty others that is not so intrusive to user experience. I suggest to stop those intrusive ads and videos if you want people to be using the app at all.

They want your money
Used to love this app and used it for many years until they started making things difficult and remove the free options. Had a very hard time migrating my notes and leave the app. Finally got it and happy to say good bye
Years of good use
Love Evernote, using it for many years. Not let me down.
used to be free - now a small fortune
this app used to be free. when they switched to paid we could still see the value and stuck with them. 13 years later and gradually increasing the price to where it makes ZERO sense to pay for this. and i’m sure the subscription price that over the last 13 years went from zero to $155 a year will only continue to increase in the future. we just migrated everything off of here and cancelled and we will never return to such a filthy money grubbing enterprise again. wake up. the subscription culture is dead and companies like this continue to beat a dead horse until they will beat themselves into a deserved grave with unjustifiable inflation and greed.

DON’T
I would give it no stars but you have choose one!!!!The worst app ever. Not very usable. Constantly want to charge you to use it. Seems great at first then useless!!
Bad
AI slopware/trashware
Love the app but…
Evernote is great and I have used it a long time. However, over the years they keep jerking me around with plans and prices. I started at 29.99/yr to now recently 249.99/yr. The amount of the app I use has not been enhanced by any of these plan adjustments and they keep raising the price.
The formatting, tasks, and synching is great. If I cant justify to myself to keep the plan after this year I’ll seek an alternative and you may want to as well.

Lost trust in developers
I’ve completely lost all faith in Evernote now. Previously they gave a massive price hike due to the AI tools being added and forced us into moving into that so that we could continue to work. I started using the AI tool such as meeting transcripts and now they have changed it so it’s impossible to download or copy the meeting transcript so I’ve been conned into paying a huge subscription without even been able to use the functionality that I was benefitting from. Fundamentally it’s impossible to trust that paying any more money in the future will result in the service I expect so I’m going to look for alternatives.

Ads
Stupid ads all the time
Disappointment
I've been a user since 2012, and it is disappointing to see the monetization creep that forces users to pay to use Evernote across more than one device.
Great while it lasted
I miss the days when I could just pull up my notes without navigating a maze of prompts to sign up for something. I will now be taking my notes elsewhere.
Too many ads
I’ve used this notes app for years and now everytime I go use it I get hit with ads. Super annoying do better
Used to be good
Now impossibly slow and with less features. And very intrusive.
Not really worth it
In my opinion, they keep adding things that slow the app down that I don’t even need just so they can significantly increase the price. Evernote was great when I started using it years ago and it is terrible now.
Too many ads
The ads are now loud. EVERY TIME YOU TRY AND MAKE A NOTE. Unusable.
Annoying
Terrible app makes it difficult to download pdf and send to laptop
Bugs in Evernote
Ever know has been going downhill rapidly over the last few weeks or months. It’s almost unusable on my phone at this point and it’s so slow and filled with bugs on the laptop that we’re ready to give up and shift to GROK4.7 and shift to using agents to manage the things we previously managed on Evernote and are now having to give up and just consider it our archive
I understand you’ve bundled some type of integration with hugging face or something like that, but you need to get your code debug before you go live with it. This is very concerning that your company is letting down it users this way after all these years
What is tell me about Evernote having use it for over a decade now this is dedication to being a Bake with respect to communication with his customers which would help in its product development
The second thing that stunning over this decade is how bugs are systemic never fixed
Certain features which are obvious such as nesting, are never integrated ever, despite valiant effort to get you to listen, but you don’t listen apparently, and I may as well be shouting into an empty dark room
Possible, you can admit that these are systemic to your original architecture and you can’t fix them, but it would be nice if you would be more honest and transparent with your loyal users
