For Mac users, there is always the option to use DevonThink.
I've been using EN for 7 or so years and yesterday, I ported everything over to DevonThink Personal. Very easy, no hitches whatsoever with a rather large database.
Only a one-time fee of $49.
More secure; all notes sent to a cloud service of your choice are encrypted by DevonThink.
I've yet to find any downsides whatsoever. The search function is far superior to Evernote's. The interface is more flexible, with no bugs.
I cannot see any reason to stay with Evernote at this point.
