Some people just don’t like using Evernote because of difficulties in getting bullet lists to work properly. It is slow and clunky and basic features like tagging are a hassle. Evernote is still great in many other ways, here are some great Evernote alternatives. If you want to delete your Evernote account, please see the bottom of this post for Evernote account deletion instructions. I’ve tried to get all alternatives to Evernote in this list and please forgive me if I missed a few. Here are Evernote alternatives for all your productivity and business needs.
