In the past few years Microsoft has done a lot to bring its Mac, Android, iOS and Windows versions up to date (including supporting Windows Phones).
There is still a paid version, which adds a few features, but nothing really important for most users. The biggest news was that Microsoft made OneNote free to use and free to download. Meanwhile, Microsoft has made a number of changes to OneNote in the past two years. We’ll compare web clipping for Evernote and OneNote later.
So if you use Evernote for collecting info from the web (as opposed to taking notes or just writing), this is a major improvement (and more flexible than the OneNote web clipper). Hopefully, with the new subscription options, Evernote can thrive as a leaner and better-focused business.įor some, the best improvement is to the Evernote web clipper. (Moving the data for 200 million users, and the data about the data, is not trivial!) That transition appears to have been smooth so far and should be completed this month. Since September, Evernote has been moving its data from its own servers to the Google Cloud Platform. The company lost its co-founder, Phil Libin, in the summer of 2015, and the corporation has been restructuring. (Many of Skitch’s features do live on in Evernote’s clipping tool, though.) Other changes at Evernote included killing Evernote Food and stopping support for the web plugin Clearly (a favorite of mine) and the drawing tool, Skitch. The Mac version of Evernote also recently got some updates, including improved note editing. Evernote online is also the central area for coordinating all your files between PC, Mac, Android, iOS and other versions of the program. It’s a nice, clean interface, but appears to have fewer features than the desktop version. The Premium plan offers a huge 10GB of new uploads per month, scans PDF and Office files for search, scans and digitizes business cards, creates presentations, and lets you view your edit history (and revert to an earlier version of the note, if you want).Įvernote also took its online, web-only interface out of beta and made it the standard version for using Evernote with your browser. (Members who use IFTTT reportedly can work around this.) Emailing info to Evernote was a very popular option and one I often used.Īlong with incentives to upgrade, Evernote introduced a less expensive option, called Evernote Plus for $25 / year (down from $45 / year), plus a more expensive Premium plan ($70 / year). For example, Evernote no longer lets you email articles or other info to your account on the free plan. In the past year, Evernote made changes to its free and paid plans, particularly, limiting some features of its free plans. Today we’ll look at the main differences between the programs, their user interfaces, and the strengths of each program. In our previous post, we discussed how OneNote and Evernote share many of the same purposes.
