User Testimonials
	Ghostwriter	Joplin
Likelihood to Recommend	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source Already done. Incentivized Steve Shank Owner Read full review
Pros	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source take and find notes of any kind. Exports notes for sharing. Syncs between devices. Exports notes as html. Incentivized Steve Shank Owner Read full review
Cons	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source It currently lacks integrated Grammar checking. Lack of integrated AI. Incentivized Steve Shank Owner Read full review
Usability	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source Mostly, it is wonderful. However, the search could be easier to use. I use the Markdown editor, which can be made very easy to use, but is really needed to get the most out of Joplin. If you are unwilling to use Markdown, don't use Joplin.

Alternatives Considered	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source I left Evernote many, many years ago, but was very happy with the move to Joplin and much prefer it. Incentivized Steve Shank Owner Read full review
Return on Investment	Open Source No answers on this topic	Open Source I write my newsletter with it. I use it to monitor my billing - Getting money has a high ROI. Client notes. Hard to know what the ROI is for knowing what the client last had a problem with, but I assume it is part of why I've kept the same clients for decades.
