One of the main advantages of Evernote is, that you can search and find text in thousands of notes very quickly. But there are many apps like PNotes portable or CherryTree portable, which have a similar text-search-function not much slower than with Evernote.

But I know no other application than evernote, which is able to find text in pictures embedded in a note. This in the background fully automated OCR-text-recognition is a very unique and excellent Evernote-feature. In the open-source-brother-application NeverNote (=NixNote) and in OneNote 2007 I could not find text in embedded pictures.
The only feature I miss in Evernote is, that it is not available in a portable version for usage on business computers without admin rights. For this purpose I must open Evernote online in a Firefox-tab or use CherryTree (with pictures from clipboard) or PNotes (without pictures in notes).
