  1. @PinkElephant @bmcl26 I get it I'm actually really interested to see what Evernote does so well for you that it's worth paying for? I'm curious perhaps I'm missing something that I haven't seen or maybe it's something I know about that I'm not using. In the last several years I've primarily been using Evernote to store reference information which is useful but something that's Google Keep and Onenote can do as well. The price point isn't the issue I happily pay over £100 a month for LinkedIn Sales Navigator because I get value from it. I understand that Evernote needs to make a profit and BS are quietly hoping enough of the Evernote free users upgrade to a paid version to keep the lights on. It seems like they don't make it exactly easy to migrate your data off Evernote so it may just work. Is there an easy way to download load all of my data from Evernote. Other companies like, LinkedIn, Google, Facebook etc have a simple way you can request a copy of your data and you get an email with links to download everything. All I can find is that you have to install an old version of the Evernote software which may stop working at any point. By the way that's another reason why I'm deciding to not upgrade to paid. After a year I may not be even able to download the 12,000 or so notes I have in Evernote from over the years. That may not be the case so please correct me if there is a hassle free way to get your notes off Evernote.
  2. It's a shame change not handled at all well. I've been an Evernote user since April 2008 and seen lots of changes from when Evernote were the king / unicorn of notetaking space to now. Skitch, Scannable and Food were all great products but when the applications weren't consistent or even available across platforms I no longer could see the value in subscribing to paid premium subscription. These days the Evernote personal subscription is even more expensive than Microsoft 365 Family subscription here in the UK. Microsoft 365 Family however includes access for 6 users to all the office applications on 5 devices each (both PC & mobile) as well as 1TB of cloud storage per user. Evernote lost their way years and years ago. After pursuing growth at all costs they have tried numerous times to increase revenue by removing previously included features for free users. I've no idea why they didn't add new features that people would actually pay for into the premium version as well as developing an enterprise version for mid to large companies where they could charge even more for. Things like pen support, transcription of audio notes, sync to google & Microsoft so you can search emails docs. I can see why so many people people are annoyed. When an organisation keeps changing their minds a paying client loses trust that the organisation is focussed on what is good for the users and are more interested in squeezing more money from the people that are left.
