I can use it almost anywhere I would need or want to. I have it on my Windows, OSX, Android, and iOS devices so the portability is *just about* perfect. The formatting control is great. Integration of google drive, on-the-fly audio recording & screen-shot grabbing, sharing capabilities, and of course the cherry on top, the web clipper feature that lets you pull in content from the web (with the help of a browser extension/plugin) right into your notes. Overall, you will be very hard-pressed to find anything better currently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't like how Evernote has ignored the Linux community by refusing to make a native Linux port for it, especially when they boast about cross-platform support and portability. But, when push comes to shove, you can always use Evernote directly on the web via a browser, though it's not as feature-rich or feature-accessible as the native application. Being a developer, I'd also like to see them integrate some sort of code view with syntax highlighting and mark-down document composition support. I have to rely on other applications, which aren't as portable for these sort of note-taking tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can save almost anything to my Evernote account, typed notes, website clippings, pdf files, pictures. The Web Clipper and the "email to Inbox" features are especially useful for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find the constant update notifications a little frustrating because I am usually starting Evernote to capture something quickly or search for notes based on a current thought. In neither case am I wanting to be distracted by whatever update has just been completed, even though this information demonstrates the commitment to excellence of the Evernote team.

It's dashboard can be customized into any preference.
Has different templates and colours to uniquely display your tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are no downfalls that I can mention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to seamlessly sync across all my devices. I can take notes on my phone during a meeting and instantly access them on my laptop later. The tagging system and notebooks make it easy to organize everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The free version has some limitations in terms of device syncing, and the premium plans can be a bit expensive for startups with tight budgets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Comfortable interface. It's just a notes... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They always want to milk money.
They started by banning me from using notes on my phone and computer at the same time.
Then they said I've exhausted my "free number of new notes"
Every time I log into their service, they show me an annoying and irritating pop-up with their "awesome offer". No one uses such cheap and disgusting advertising anymore.
So I'm looking for another free resource to move to. This is just a note-taking service that few people use for any full-fledged work, especially those who are not ready to pay for it.
Maybe I would have paid for a subscription at some point. I don't know. But with this attitude, it will definitely not be Evernote. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Consolidating note formation at an amazing rate has become much easier and efficient, which is fascinating. We have managed to maintain a high level of performance while keeping track of numerous notes for each specific event and organizing them using notebooks and tags to make pertinent information easier to find is prevalent. Keeping everyone on the same page and up to date with managing projects, meetings and daily activities is easy with Evernote. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It does require time and training to effectively use all of its tools, and many of them are underutilized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Fast formatting, folders, search, synchronization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The free version prompts you to buy the paid version EVERY TIME you open it. To close the intrusive pop-ups, you have to navigate through UX traps. Additionally, the synchronization limit of just one device and various other restrictions make for a terrible experience.
The paid version includes a lot of useless features that can't be disabled. The AI tool is utterly useless and doesn't provide any benefit.
When I tried to delete my account, they couldn't do it. Even when I submitted a ticket, the support team did not respond to my requests or concerns.
I've transferred my 600 notes and am hoping that someday my Evernote account will be deleted.
I strongly recommend against using this app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Evernote is helpful because you can customize your organization to your needs and type of work you are doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The free version limits the use and storage size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Evernote is my favourite productivity app. To be fair, I can't live without it. I use it 10 to 20 times a day. If you know how to use Evernote well, It can be your second brain. Evernote is not just a pace to share your notes, you can save images, files, and web pages to your Evernote. You can use Evernote as a cloud storage to save digital notes.

Evernote free version is limited to only 60MB of space per month and you are only allowed to use only on 2 devices at a time. This is not really good for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What Ii like on Evernote is that it`s so organized that you can get to separate dates and to do list. It easily reminds me of my future schedules and projects to do. It is free to use, you may use it without upgrading with payment.
It`s just like a notepad but with menus tabs and different options for scheduling.
I can recommend this to you for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike about Evernote, is wwhy do they have to ask users to upgrade for payment, we can use it for free without paying, so hy upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I truly believe that Evernote owes its logo: It does help to build an elephant's memory, not only in terms of capacity but also regarding the limitless connections you can create and enrich, following your preferred classification rules. You can add as many tags, notebooks, and sub-notebooks as you can, not to mention the internal links bridging notes to each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The dramatic revamp of the desktop version a few years ago resulted in slowly loading notes, that might be as long as 2-3 seconds, they do weigh and frustrate in the long run. Despite the several updates since then, those flaws have become part of the user experience.
Apart from that, I didn't appreciate the plain presentation of the tags. In the legacy version, I used to give them color according to their nature (for example: notes related to business in orange, those associated with my reads in blue, etc.). Now, I struggle to find them, visually.
Yet another thing I deplore is that the program automatically picks the language of my operating system. For some reason, the latter is in French (I can't change it), I simply want to use and search Evernote's features in English.
When it comes to editing, I find it hard to navigate a long note. I wish there were anchor links we freely insert to create our table of contents and also jump from one section to another without having to search every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
