Ian Small emerges from his Cone of Silence to give a report on the slow progress of rebuilding Evernote. His concluding paragraph:

"Building a better Evernote isn’t easy. I appreciate your sticking with us as we climb this mountain together. And I look forward to all of us enjoying the view from the other side."

I wish he would write that evernote would include a back-linking feature :-)

The first level subscription tier is around $96 a year. If they had a tier for around $20 a year, with at least access with a few more devices and offline access I think more Free users would subscribe.

But then again, maybe that would be offset by the ones subscribing at the higher level to drop down to the lower one.

A few years ago I would have subscribed it there were a tier for $20 a year or less but seeing how high it I just found alternatives that I just paid for the program and use a personal cloud so save money from the yearly.

I long ago gave up on using Evernote as a note-taking app, but I still rely on it to save and find my non-academic PDFs and screenshots of web pages, etc. I especially like using it with the Scanable iOS app to scan paper documents. So far I have found no other app that works as well for this. Many times I've been saved by being able to find a document I needed in my Evernote cloud.

I’m not used to CEOs writing to customers and saying things like, “Building a better Evernote isn’t easy.” Business 101 teaches that in upper-management you choose to lead or you choose to accept a title. Leaders write with confidence and optimism, people just holding down the fort say things like “What I’m doing isn’t easy.” Customers like to think the executive leadership of companies they trust are building the best thing ever. This new “thing” about publicly talking about how hard your job is doesn’t go over well with me. Especially when you know they’re being paid close to a million dollars. Lead confidently — or get out of the way for someone who can, or WILL.
