Evernote in trouble?

This piece seems to be inspiring a lot of discussion at the moment:
Except for one project, I’ve pretty much abandoned Evernote, but I still follow its fortunes with interest. I wonder if it really is in serious trouble?

I can’t say to what extent EN is in trouble, but none of this can be construed to be signs of success. I imagine their main challenge is that they’re supporting very large numbers of users on the free plan and not converting enough to paid plans.
I was on the premier plan for several years (back to around 2009, if I remember right) but dumped it last year (a) because of the rising cost and (b) I had some concerns about their apparently slightly ambivalent view of security and privacy.

Hmm… I have tons of information stored in EN for several years. What would you suggest as a replacement, either free or paid?

I have not tested this because I do not use EN. RightNote can integrate with EN with the added benefit of organizing the EN information in a tree.

Right! Many thanks for reminding me of RighNote.
