For everyone else, it is the next best thing to Evernote. OneNoteįor those heavily invested in the Microsoft products ecosystem, using Microsoft’s note-taking app, OneNote, is a no-brainer. Oh, and they will sync your notes across all your devices without ever threatening to limit you or something. These three note-taking apps are free, easy to use, some have a few extra features on top of the no-frills note-taking and best of all, are available on the two major mobile platforms: Android and iOS. However, my favourite three are Microsoft’s OneNote, the popular Simplenote and Google’s Keep. There are quite a number of viable Evernote alternatives out there. However, for the rest of us who do a lot of note-taking on the go but don’t need the extra features that Evernote offers like the ability to scan business cards, convert notes to PDFs, chat with colleagues etc, we are free to explore other options that won’t nag us from time to time to pay a subscription fee or lock us out when we need them the most. So if you have a tablet, smartphone and PC or several smartphones or PCs or more, read on.Įvernote is nice and all and heavy users may not be shopping for a solution any time soon since they will just gladly pay the $4 or get their companies to just pay for the enterprise-targeted version which, at $12 per person per month, remains unchanged.

If that is not the case then you may start looking for a new note-taking application soon since Evernote will start limiting access for Basic accounts to just two devices.

Unless, of course, as a user, you are willing to part with at least $4 monthly for the cheapest subscription, the Plus option. It was not just hiking its subscription prices yet again but it was also doing away with its biggest selling point: synchronization of content (notes and other stuff) across multiple devices. Nearly a year to the day it dropped its unlimited storage offer, on June 28th, Evernote dropped a bombshell.
