Why I left Evernote for Notion after 14 years - and a 900% price creep

General News

Summary

The author left Evernote after 14 years when Evernote's new tiered pricing and AI-driven feature packaging pushed the cost to a $250 annual plan and imposed notebook, device, and storage limits. The author found Evernote's justification for the sharp price increase unconvincing and felt the changes forced users to pay for AI and other improvements. They migrated to Notion using the import tool (briefly upgrading for $12) and found Notion's free tier with unlimited storage and clearer tiering to offer better value. The piece cautions readers to evaluate subscription tiers and the monetization of AI features and to consider alternatives regularly.
