If you’re not working with a team, I’d highly recommend their free plan, but the biggest draw for me was Taskade’s collaborative tools. I use the Pro plan, which is $19 per month for up to 10 team members. Taskade is often billed as a Notion alternative, and has pretty much all of the features Notion does. The first Evernote alternative I tried was actually Notion, but Notion's own price increases led me to discover the app that ultimately became my favorite: Taskade. Let me know if you're using any Evernote alternative(s) that I missed and I'll add them to the list! Taskade: Evernote alternative with better collaboration + task/project management features These are all quality apps, and what is “best” depends partly on your needs and budget. Below, you can find the pros and cons for all of the Evernote alternatives and similar apps I tried: Taskade, Notion, Obsidian, OneNote, Clickup and Google Keep. Long story short, I ended up testing most/all of the major Evernote alternatives, and wanted to compile each of their pros and cons here in the hopes that it will save someone else some time and money. I was originally using the personal Evernote plan before switching briefly to Evernote Teams (which is now over $25/user/month). About a year ago, I started went full time on my freelance writing business and ended up hiring more team members to the point where I wanted to switch from Evernote to something that had more functionality. Initially, I was using Evernote to take notes for projects and keep track of what I needed to do each day (for which it’s still a nice option if only because I’m so familiar with it). AppleScript isn’t available in iOS, so your favorite scripts can’t be carried over from the Mac.I wanted to make this post after seeing all the posts here asking for Evernote alternatives, now that Evernote has raised their prices so much. There are many calls to OS X that DEVONthink on a Mac can make, but that are not available in the iOS environment, another source of limitations. My iPad Air has a small fraction of the RAM on my MacBook Pro, and that’s a limitation. The mobile operating system and the hardware capabilities of iPhones and iPads are very limited by comparison to OS X and current Macs for sheer horsepower. Adding notes and new content will be improved.īut don’t expect DEVONthink To Go 2.x to duplicate DEVONthink on a Mac. Yes, those who like to annotate PDFs will be pleased by version 2.x. Yes, you will be able to sync reasonably large databases to an iOS device. But I recognize the limitations of 1.x for other purposes such as organizing content, and wait to do such chores until I get back to a Mac (or carry a laptop when on a trip).ĭEVONthink To Go 2.x will have major improvements, including general organizational capabilities, sync via local network or the cloud and will generally be more powerful. I find version 1.x of DEVONthink To Go very useful for purposes such as syncing some articles and papers I haven’t yet read or want to reread from a DEVONthink database on my Mac to the iPad Air. If I come across an article that would be a useful addition to one of my databases I’ll email its URL to myself as a reminder to capture it when I move to my Mac. Every morning at breakfast (with a couple of mugs of Community Dark Roast coffee) I browse the Wall Street journal and a couple of other news sources. So Yes I like DTPO, but I also have needs for it when I leave my computer… So you see what I am getting at? Sure, I can just keep documents in Pages, ByWord, OneDrive etc. The big picture for me isn’t life on my MBA, but 70% on iPhone and 30% on MBA. In the end, for me, if my data (documents, PDF’s etc) is only accessible while on my MBA because it is in DTPO (which much of it is) and I have to move it out of there into any other area- the cloud, creator app that syncs to iPhone an so on, then DTPO soon becomes less useful. Sure, some programs can get locked into “desktop” only use and go no further- high end audio, graphics etc… But I would hope Devon Tech is way beyond that thinking considering their purpose. Considering Devon Techn deals strongly in research and organization of data… in many cases from existing digital sources (read internet and then whatever category ) Cloud, accessibility, availability is of prime importance today for many. I think the bigger picture leans much towards mobility. Well… I do hope it is being taken seriously. On the contrary, we are taking it very seriously. This does not mean that we dismiss it or take it seriously. And despite your assessment of “needs”, it is the smaller share of what we do. “mobile” is not the core of our business. If your “trust” in DEVONtechnologies is based on a mobile app, you’ve missed the larger picture.
