CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Functional and useful, Evernote goes beyond its architecture and is also interesting. It's a true three-platform play: it works very well, and somewhat differently, on desktop computers, mobile phones, and over the Web.
Evernote is a good note-taking application. If you have the Evernote application running on your camera phone, it will automatically upload your snapshots to the Evernote server, creating a useful archive of them. But the killer feature is that it also does OCR on your images so you can find them later by searching for text in them. Use this tool to snap pictures of products you see in stores and want to remember, to grab whiteboards in meetings, and to take pictures of people with name tags at conferences. It's one of those utilities that might just change your life.
Everything you do on your phone and on your computer gets synchronized to your Evernote account on the Web. Since it synchronizes as soon as you log on, and regularly thereafter, reinstalling the software or losing data because of a crash are nonfatal problems.
Do note that the Web-based text editor isn't keystroke compatible with the PC-based editor. It makes switching between the two experiences confusing. The free version offers 40MB per month for uploading and unpredictable OCR performance, while $45 a year gets you a 500MB a month allowance, priority OCR, better security features, and support.
Publisher's description
From Evernote :Evernote allows you to easily capture information in any environment using whatever device or platform you find most convenient, and makes this information accessible and searchable at any time, from anywhere. Use Evernote to jot notes, create to-do lists, clip entire web pages, manage passwords, and record audio. Everything added to Evernote is automatically synchronized across platforms and devices and made searchable. Evernote will even recognize printed or handwritten text in photos and images.
Evernote offers two account levels: Free and Premium. Free users have access to all the tools, recognition, and synchronization, but are limited to a 40MB monthly upload allowance. Premium accounts receive 500MB monthly upload allowances, SSL security, priority image recognition, and premium support.
What's new in this version:
Version 3.0 is the first open beta release of Evernote and adds premium accounts for paying customers, which enable higher upload quotas, enhanced security through SSL, and customer support.

Version: Evernote 3.0.0.625 beta
Pros: Simple, easy to use, notes can have tags and, the most important thing for a note-taking application: fast search capabilities.
I've already used Microsoft OneNote and despite of having a nice layout, Microsoft's software is slow and has too many things on the screen.
Evernote is great if you're used to use Notepad and Notepad++ to record your notes. It can also take notes instantly from websites.
Cons: Could have a better layout to show the notes. The e-mail list style could have other options...
