Evernote - The Best Note Taking App.
So for the past few year's I've been using Microsoft Office OneNote 2007 as my default note taking application. I generally only take notes for class on my Lenovo laptop so this was the key application to use. However exporting these notes was tedious. You had to export them as PDF's or Word Docs, email them to yourself, or transfer them over the network, etc. I needed a better way for my notes on my laptop to sync across all of my devices. My Mac is the computer connected to the printer, so in the event I need to print a page of my notes, I would need to go through that process of exporting them from OneNote. Plus, I'm trying to be "greener" and use less paper, so the iPad is an amazing way to cut down on paper and still have that "paper" like feel.
This is where Evernote comes in. With Evernote, I don't have to hassle with exporting, emailing, etc. All of the notes are automatically synced between my devices. It has a clean and useful interface; no distractions, which is great during class. When I need to study, I take out my iPad and bam all of my notes are at my fingertips. Currently I'm on the free plan however that won't be for long. The premium package offers several, minor, changes; but with all of the work put into this app, they deserve the $45 that is costs. If your in need for a great note-taking application, especially if your a student, I highly recommend Evernote. Ditch whatever application you're using and join the Evernote club.
