Pat @ChildWatch 3 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 EN has never fully figured out which audience that it is catering for. Being all things to all people in app's that are available across all platforms is difficult if not completely impossible though EN does a descent job with the latter so long as sync issues are looked after. EN is not MS 365 or other similar multi collaborative app offerings and shouldn't try to be one. I use MS 365 and it is like a collection of apps that are held together with relational sticky tape. Just look at what they have been doing with OneNote since 2016 - it is a mess on Windows and worse on OSX/iOS. For me, I scan doc's onto MS OneDrive and that directory is a linked folder to EN. If EN are looking to implement an appointment and task management system that is linked to objectives along with notes then they could do worse that look at how Daylite presents its data. So could Microsoft. A real annoyance with EN for is the lack of a HANDWRITING capability within EN notes. Gosh, how long does it take a company to get a message - we were complaining about this 10 years ago. The real challenge for the new company IMO is EU laws and GDPR. I work in a community where ENCRYPTION is a way of life and it's hard using EN because certain types of data need to be looked after within GDPR rules and EN is not very good in that regard. Enabling encryption is a difficulty in an app with live sync but if they don't achieve it then individual users could get into legal trouble - and likely EN itself. I've renewed at the new price and I will give them a year and see where they are going with EN. They have a lot to straighten out an it's unlikely that they will sort it in a single year - but they could show us that they have a solid direction and are in it for the long haul - and will get us there. Their financial commitment thus far is impressive - purchase of EN and cost of layoffs and moving to Europe. Let's give them a chance. Link to comment

(And still just shaking my head that this one feature is so tough to find) Thanks for the heads up re Synology Note Station. I had no idea that existed and based on what I have read about it just now I think that could be a good option - for me tagging and clipping from webpages are more important than how pdfs are displayed and Note Station seems to do that well. Although I guess you need to have a Synology NAS to be able to have access to that. It seems the leading NAS brands have their own note apps and they do appear quite good so this makes me think that EN is going to really have to lift its game as those NAS apps will obviously keep improving. And also more and more people will presumably go for having their own personal cloud as costs come down. Folk will like the idea of increased storage space as well as freedom from potential insecurity with traditional cloud storage as well as lack of speed (especially for video and multimedia), not to speak of ongoing costs So since you first mentioned having a NAS setup I have gotten all excited about using one ...lol...but so many options and so much information it is doing my head in ...lol....but the pain could be worth it. And now, the Synology Note Station is yet another variable in the equation....eek!!!!! By the way, I was paying AUD (Australian dollars) $9.99 a month and this has increased to AUD14.99 - an exact 50% increase. However, I have juts looked at the current EN pricing table and the month to month plan (which is what I am on - for Professional) is now $22.49!!!!! A 125% increase. And even if you pay annually it still works out at AUD17.50 monthly. So at $14.99 per month I suppose I should be happy. So yes you are probably right about pricing varying for each member and it probably depends on how long you have been a paying subscriber. It is interesting though that they told you your rate would not increase AT ALL Link to comment
Riftor 0 Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Just got a receipt for the Evernote annual renewal of my Personal Plan. Last year $69 this year $129 - an 87% increase. This seems quite excessive. I've been a member for a decade, but I will be looking for another option during this year's subscription period. Since I just store a few hundred scans for sharing with others, I think I can do this much cheaper just using my own website. Too bad there is no option for low volume users. Link to comment

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,805 Posted July 30, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted July 30, 2023 QNAP and Synology are maybe the two biggest fish in the NAS pond - there are some more, like Terramaster. I would avoid WD Mycloud at all cost, and QNAP for the last 2-3 Years had a row of security incidents that make me doubt they have an eye on OS security. Disclaimer: I run some stuff on Synlogies and know them pretty well. Of other brands I have more of an outside view. In all cases somebody need to invest maybe 500$/€ for any reasonable starter package. Plus you need to have or develop a good knowledge of networking and server operational skills, because you will be your own admin and operator. Some basic Linux Know-how is not bad either, because all the operating systems are based on a Linux Kernel (except when setting up a Windows Server, but that’s another story). But it’s fun, no question. Link to comment

Nate28 1 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Outrageous level of price increase. Thankfully Apple warned me so I'm out after years of using the service. $89.99 up to $134.99 in Australian Dollars. The subscription model is only ever good for the companies selling them.

The changes in the past two years have moved it on from a simple Note Taking App to something that has massively increased its value to me.

Over the years, like all software, it has had its glitches, but these are usually addressed fairly quickly. I am maybe fortunate in that I have not suffered some of the more serious problems that others have experienced, and I put this down to being patient and letting the software sync after adding or editing content, coupled with a good Internet connection. If you are not getting any value from EN, plenty of other apps may suit your needs better. I certainly don't grudge the 23p a day it costs me as I receive much more value than that by using it. 4 Link to comment

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,805 Posted September 28, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Somebody may not have found use of new features. This means they have not been found, or they have not been searched. Somebody may have a similar app, so the need is covered. Never mind, nobody is forced to use EN, and anybody can use it „just for note taking“. The „emotionally engaged“ users show a tendency to speak for all / the majority/ a large group of users, without knowing. The more experienced users point out that there are no 2 identical use cases, so there are no 2 identical value perceptions. This plus a different evaluation of the own personal time leads to a lively discussion. If it goes beyond, Forum Rules of Conduct are a good place to start. 1 Link to comment

Level 5* gazumped 12,066 Posted September 28, 2023 Level 5* Share Posted September 28, 2023 As with many of the threads dealing with price increases, this one got to the insults phase pretty quickly. Difficult to understand how one group who don't see the value of something are massively offended by the mere existence of those that do. Regardless; we do have (some) standards around here, so please keep the discussion polite and based on real facts. If you're leaving - G'bye; no need to announce your departure. If you'd like to stay - try your luck with Support; they may have some sympathy with those who face a massive increase. If you want to complain please do it to support - we don't care: we're mostly other users who have accepted, or are already paying the new higher rate. Our lack of sympathy is what you'd expect. If you want to get abusive - please don't. Posts outside the Forum Code have been known to disappear suddenly. Have a nice day. 4 Link to comment

No doubt, people leave when the price goes up. But how many leave, and what the size of the power user base is, is guesswork without numbers. Just like that supposed "loud minority" of power users -- a quick read through any of these grievance threads will show who's loudest. OK, I'm letting it go. Certainly you'll find "just a note taking app" that works best for you at the best price. If Evernote decides to be more than that and charge accordingly, there seems to be a market for that as well.

RoamingNick 0 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 So what is the consensus view re. viable alternative? Have tolerated this sub-optimal situation (unintuitive UI, unreliable sync, sheer basic stuff like all my notes not downloading despite me selecting that option, lack of Watch OS app) a while now, but not interested in paying ~60% more - simply not justified; nor am I interested in bankrolling a bunch of 'features' I don't need, when the ones I do either are unreliable or entirely absent. And this coming from a user since 2011 - sad. Link to comment

I think I’ve seen every single alternative app loved by some and despised by others here. Everyone has a different view on what is important to them. There is a lot of input on the forums and elsewhere on the internet. Read some of the comments and try some of the other options and you will better know what will work best for you. 1 Link to comment

I do not think so. Evernote has made this impossible to trap users in their system. It's not worth 124/year but many of us are imprisoned in evernote with so much content that we do not want to lose. Just switching to another service is NOT as easy and simple as you suggest. It sucks to be here. Link to comment

There are several export options in Evernote that can be used to import your data into another app. You are most definitely not trapped. 1 Link to comment
justnewlistings 1 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 not from the videos and articles I just read and watched. there used to be an import tool in OneNote that is retired. Another Evernote2OneNote does not work with large notebooks thanks to evernote. There are numerous threads on various sites noting the challenge of any large export to another service. If you have one put it here sincerely and please. Link to comment
Level 5* s2sailor 2,442 Posted December 17, 2023 Level 5* Share Posted December 17, 2023 OneNote is problematic but that is on their import process, not Evernote’s export process. Some report success, others don’t. There is no perfect replacement for Evernote, but there are many to consider depending on what is important to you and on what devices you want to use it on. Options, in addition to OneNote, that are often mentioned here include: Joplin, Obsidian, Notion, Upnote, Bear, Devonthink, Apple notes, and Google Keep to name a few. 1 Link to comment
Endurance 13 Posted December 17, 2023 Author Share Posted December 17, 2023 I have switched to Papleress NGX. It has only advantages. Free, open source, you can host it yourself, files are not stored in a database, so you are also independent, and much more that is better. I can only recommend the migration to Paperless NGX to everyone. I will now migrate all my customers. Link to comment

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,805 Posted December 17, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Installs in Docker, for example on a NAS. Which means get a NAS (able to run Docker), get the drives and learn the tunes. The first position is 400€, or upwards, the drives maybe 200-300€, plus some hours to set it up. What you get is a capable document dump. With OCR, structured filing, quite OK. It‘s not a notes app, and documents only. Link to comment
rvsf.go 0 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 nooooo, those prices are for professional users, they forget about home users, I don't need 10gb of transfer per month, I just need to be able to make unlimited notes. 3, 4 or 5€ I could pay monthly, not more money. Link to comment
