Free is fine for most people, and the only important functional difference is the upload limit (60 MB for free, 1 GB for Premium) and the time it takes for image text to be recognized. Essentially, Evernote comes in two flavors: Free and Premium. I first performed this test a year ago and walked away unimpressed, because I did not understand how it worked. The icing on the cake, however, is that Evernote can make text in images searchable. If I happen to be away from my phone and my computer, I can even email myself a note (with all the usual attachments) to a special email address and it will get added to my Evernote account, to be edited and tagged at my leisure. Is my typing distracting those around me? No problem! I can take notes by hand via Ink Notes. Not only could I keep everything together in one spot without having to come up with a method to keep it all synchronized - but I could do it on my phone as well, recording typed notes, and pictures too! Heck, I can even record a meeting and take notes at the same time, and the audio file is safely stored along with my notes. Usually I would forget the thought before I recorded it. For a time I tried to come up with various text files synced via Dropbox, but it was usually too much of a hassle to record whatever it was I was curious about. Thus, there is no way for me to keep track of them on physical paper. The little things I would like to remember do not, unfortunately, arrive in a nicely organized grouping that can be systematically archived. When I actually did manage to keep a notebook for more than a month, I was never able to find the odd facts I wanted to remember. I tried an actual physical notebook for a while, but I kept losing the books or forgetting to carry a pencil. In all of these cases, I lacked an organized way to preserve the information.
When was my street last paved? What was the critical registry key that makes my cobbled together home networking solution work? What was the name of that book I heard about in passing?
I have spent much of my life wishing I could keep a little notebook on me at all times to record odd bits of information that I think I might like to remember. Evernote has changed my life for the better since I first tried it out a month ago.
