Overall Satisfaction with Evernote
I use Evernote for helping keep track of my client profiles, which includes specifics on their equipment and the work I have done for them, as well as work I need to do for them in the future. I also track technical notes in separate notebooks and tag articles for quick future reference. When I'm researching an issue for a client I may have to go through dozens of websites, then I use Evernote to capture the "best" sites and or articles along with my notes for future reference. I have over a dozen different notebooks for tracking business and personal notes/sites/documents.
- I love that I can drag and drop sites and files etc. I can have a URL, my own notes and PDF on the same note.
- Sometimes you want something very structured, sometimes you want something more free flowing like Evernote.
- Super fast searching with my own tags makes organizing my notes very easy.
- Ability to easily add the same note to multiple notebooks (alias).
- It would also be nice to have control over how many "recent notes" are shown by default.
- Ability to resize and or markup images directly within Evernote.
- I think Evernote saves me hours every month because I'm not looking in different areas for different things—I just put everything ( except passwords) in Evernote
Much more flexible and full-featured, although the latest version of notes has gotten much better. Evernote supports tags, multiple notebooks, and the sharing of notebooks.
