I'm Staying

[Gazebo 42]

Just had my price increase notification - subscription has nearly doubled, which is a bit of a shocker HOWEVER looking back over the 11 years I have been a subscriber the price has barely changed over that period.

They say that on average inflation doubles costs every 10 years, so on that basis this adjustment (though unwelcome) might actually be a correct level reset based on what the price when I started was. 

Evernote has been pretty ropey in recent years, but is getting better, and as a repository, storage and retrieval system is something that I rely on, though I use it less and less for notetaking these days. Features that I need are all back from previous versions, only the speed needs to improve.

I know the old " its only the price of two coffees a month" argument isn't a great one, but that's what the cost is at local prices here. I guess you need to choose what subscriptions are worth your two coffees and I've decided that Evernote is worth it for my use case.

Respect to anyone who disagrees, but thought I should submit a positive against the overwhelming amount of bad press on here over recent months.

I'm staying also. Though if they don't start delivering predictable quality so that my professional workflow is not hindered or made impossible all the time, I'll considering leaving. I'll give them 1½ years, but this may be shorter if they go downhill or cost me too much damage/image problems when not fucntioning (again) properly. 🙌👊👍

As someone migrating away from Evernote, I think what you wrote is solid. I felt the price increase was fair and think Evernote had been underpriced for a while. I think what Bending Spoons has done to tighten the freemium model and increase prices is sound. I'm just migrating away for similar concerns that @MvdH is waiting out on a little bit longer. I couldn't wait anymore and the implementation and side-affects of some things left me perturbed. Still, I think Evernote is a fantastic product.

In the midst of a lot of criticism here, it's good to see someone who still realizes how good Evernote is. Congratulations!
