I started working with Evernote years ago. The reason: Use Evernote to be my second brain. To be useful for that, it needs to be reactive. Having an idea?: write it down. Action?: write it down. Etc.
Unfortunately Evernote let go on responsiveness. They try to channel everything via their app. I don't like that at all. It takes forever to take a short note, or reminder. And there is no direct access to a note/notebook anymore.
I've got a lot of important notes stored in Evernote. That is the only reason to stay, but I'm already searching for an alternative. Evernote has chosen to go into another direction unfortunately.
