I like having this information stored in the cloud from a security and data retention perspective. Virtually every app on my phone or laptop can directly create notes in Evernote. Much easier to get information into this database. Theirs hasn’t been updated in any meaningful way in over 10 years, and it was ugly back then.

I like Evernote’s interface WAY more than DevonThink’s. If I’m sitting somewhere in a waiting room and want to review a cool anatomy article I captured, or chew through my to-read list, or was talking at dinner with a friend and wanted to share a fascinating article I found, or I’m on a website on my phone and want to immediately capture it into my database, Evernote makes all of that really easy.

I wanted access to my database both on my laptop and on my iPhone. Why did I make the switch? A few reasons: I used DevonThink Pro Office for years and about a year ago switched to Evernote for all my information repository needs and have been very happy with that switch.
