Agree. $45 is tops.

Thanks for these suggestions. Unfortunately for Mac-users both sources propose either manual conversion, notebook by notebook, or installing a Windows virtual machine in order to use the Windows Evernote/OneNote converter. If you’re moving everything to OneNote on a Mac (or indeed any other cloud storage that it serves), I still think that cloudHQ either on a trial or in its free version, or signed-up to its cheapest subscription version if you’re currently using Evernote Plus or Premium, may be a low-cost efficient route (at least until the promised Evernote/OneNote converter for the Mac sees the light of day).

Today I learnt (credit DocumentSnap: http://www.documentsnap.com/pdo-spuhq/) of an application called ExportNote that promises to do what its name says, for the PC and Mac. Its website states: “ExportNote is the only application for Mac and PC that can export all your notes (including local, synchronized, shared and business notebooks) into a free and standard format while preserving the organization in stacks, notebooks, and notes.” I haven’t tried it yet - details here: http://www.exportnote.com.

P.S. According to Brooks Duncan at DocumentSnap, searchable (i.e. OCR’d) PDFs are exported by ExportNote as searchable.

Sounded interesting so I bought it. Does the job - v e r y slowly—takes about 15 seconds to export a note; so if someone wanted to export the whole Evernote data set it would be best to set ExportNote to go and come back the next day to check progress. Not the most professional app I’ve ever used—interfaces look like what AppleScript produces. But it’s not the kind of thing someone needs to be doing frequently, so clunky doesn’t matter.
