Joplin vs Evernote
miromarvel The only app simillar enough with Evernote that even can import notes from it. No Monthly upload limit like Evernote. FOSS and private :) A little strange to work with at first, but very fun and intutitve after that :)utucuro Offline first, open source, client-side encryption, yet supports a wide variety of sync options. Has a better dark mode compared to Evernote and web clipping is actually a lot better with Joplin since you can have imported pages converted to Markdown, so you don't have weird behavior as in Evernote when you want to change something in an imported webpage.It's open source and can be synchronised. It has calendar capabilities.It's free, open source, supports encryption and gives you full control over your dataIts free and Open source We can save our data in our dropbox cloud. crossplatformelu You can do anything as in Evernote!generalSeven Let's me go cloud-free via syncthing across my android, linux & windows machines.

Check it out it's also free.neithan Less restrained and cluttered than EvernoteIt is not real cross-platform (Linux is not compatible).It's a great alternative and cheaper than Evernote. Its not cross platform though.jcsdevelopment I've used One-Note about a year now and it is, IMO, the best note-taker. For the price, you can't beat it.

Simplenote vs Evernote
Very quick sync, responsive UI, works good across Windows, Linux and Android, although missing support for graphical notes and more text formatting optionsUser2778798 True to its name, it is simple. Windows, Linux & Android all are supported. No media support. Text only.Not an archiver. Simplenote is for just that: simple markdown notes.luminousdragongames The core features of evernote are about clipping information and saving it, note writing text notes. While it might be a good program it doesn't fit.Denmon Good for plain text without the bloat of Evernote. Lately (late 2018/early 2019) it's been having trouble syncing reliably between devices, and there's no way to force a sync or see what's happening with sync. That's a showstopper problem, so I've switched to Standard Notes.JohnFastman Simplenote is a cross-platform app that allows you to take simple (as the name implies) text-based notes and sync them across your devices. There is markdown support, but little else. It's Evernote with almost everything but the note taking feature taken out. If that appeals to you, it's great. Also, thumbs up for open source and Linux support!CarlosMorales I find it easier to use and manage. - Standard Notes is a simple and private notes app. It allows you to write and sync your notes across all your devices, including your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and web browser.

Standard Notes vs Evernote
edwardcook A clean and simple, yet versatile and secure end-to-end encrypted notes app. There are multiple available extensions that allow for including images, building spreadsheets, and using markdown, among many other things.TBOTO Multi-platform support- Linux included. Open Source code. End-to-end encryption. No device limit. 100 per cent free.Does not support images or attachments, only text.RemovedUser Standard Notes is the service that I can trust to not share and read my notes.Standard Notes is a multiplatform application (Windows, Android, Linux), secure with perfect synchronization on several devices. Only problem: it is not multilingual.Denmon Best option for plain-text synced notes I've found. Moved to this from Simplenote due to sync problems there. UI is not the prettiest but I like the visibility into what's happening with sync and the option to choose different editors for notes. Sync protocol is well documented and you can even run your own Standard File server if you really want. Developer is active and responsive, and has the right approach (IMHO).D2MS Solid, simple and secure note taking app that works across platforms. - Google Keep has several features including color coding notes, inserting images, creating lists, geo-fencing, shareable notes, and search by color.

Google Keep vs Evernote
Drianmoller It's more for personal than professional use, but easy and fast to use.Very good note searching. Good integration between desktop and mobile. Use google docs for rich formatting and large texts.Google Keep is more like a sticky note where as Evernote is a digital filing system where everything is better organized.There is almost no similarity at all. It's very feature poor, clunky to use and has poor cosmetics.The functionality of Keep is extremely simple, it's basically a post it note systemshelehovchanin Lists. Ability to draw. Joint notes. The simplest interface, like ordinary stickers.it's more like a sticky note and doesn't allow to organize all your notes or format text - With so many tools, it's hard to keep everyone on the same page. Notion is a new tool that unifies them all. View 317 alternatives to Notion

Notion vs Evernote
It manages to do more than any other note taker while feeling less cluttered than Evernote.treeg Notion is the most powerful notes solution i've ever seen. Notes, lists, tables, styles, templates, levels. This app has dark theme. Free for mobile single users.It's overall more intuitive, less cluttered and more functional than Evernote. This is the first note taking app I've enjoyed using from day one.edapm It looks great, with a lot more features. Evernote is quite cluttered, whereas Notion's UI is really sleek.It does almost everything better than Evernote, except the camera capture feature and lacks OCR.sd18x2 Does everything that Evernote does, except better. Plus hundred other things that Evernote doesn't do.matthisdrolet Most comprehensive note, to-do, project management, and archiving software I know of.

Turtl vs Evernote
Turtl stores your info encrypted, unlike Evernote. Much more private.you can easily share boards of bookmarks & notes you can synch files & images it's cross platform & freeAnonAT Windows versions do not work properly. There is very little documentation and a poor forum.Client-side AES encryption (private), open-source and free syncing. Markdown support, attachments, bookmarks, browser plugins and apps for Win, OsX, Linux and Android. Best used for simple notes, but it's infinitely better than, say Simplenote and much more private than Evernote.kbabir Turtl has a great potential to be a full alternative to evernote in the future. But that will take time, still waiting for import feature from other services like evernote,simplenote etc.JohnFastman Turtl is presently more of a bookmark sync utility than Evernote replacement. (For an open source Evernote replacement see TagSpaces). Unlike Evernote, Turtl is open source and use end-to-end encryption so that you can store simple notes and online bookmarks with full privacy, even from the Turtl developers. A browser plugin works together with the client to capture links. It's still being developed but already a good choice for cross-platform bookmark/note syncing. - A desktop personal wiki with inline preview as-you-type and lots of plugins.

Zim vs Evernote
free, simple to use, clear and easy functions, not overloadedGreat to store and organize notes, possibility ton includes pictures. You can synchronize your notes with your favorite cloud plateform, notes are saved in the .txt format. The problem is : you need to install an app (not available on android) to use effectively AND it uses a markdown different than other apps.samuelhunter Includes nested notes, Wiki-like linking, and conversion to HTMLLordMax it's impossible to use it in sync Many time it lost files if more than one device is in use... also not at the same time. - A productivity and task management tool appropriate for both individuals and businesses.

Nimbus Note vs Evernote
jasoncomely Nimbus Note is practically an Evernote clone - and a great app too (I use it often).bibjasjs this is the closest program I have found that is a direct replacement for Evernote in both function and "feel". Support staff is excellent. There is even an Evernote Importer built in!JohnFastman No Linux, no Mac client, no Firefox plugin. Your data rests unencrypted on US-based data centers in readable format. So all the privacy concerns of Evernote minus some of the convenience.Nimbus has the potential to seriously challenge Evernote. I found it intuitive, easy to use with a beautiful and neat interface. Better than OneNote esp since it offers tagging.almost same evernote. all functionsNimbus Note is for PC users, very simillar to Evernote. It is possible to import all information at once. If you are fine with 100 MB synced data it is free for any number of devices. It has very good online web interface, Windows app is nice, work offline but has some bugs in text editor (formatting) and has no updates for a long period. I cannot recommend Windows Metro App, it is unusable. For users, who prefer MS or Google and want to use images in their notes, is it possible way.conceptual Nimbus Note looks similar, and with similar functionality to Evernote, and a bit faster too.
