Notion and Evernote are just two of the several leading project management tools on the market, like staging-mondaycomblog.kinsta.cloud to name a few!
While they have key differences that should be noted, the two tools have very similar goals. The greatest difference between these two products is that Notion was built from the ground up as an all-in-one organizational tool that helps users keep all of their work in one space. Evernote was built as an organizational note-taking app that also keeps users’ files in one place.
In this article we’ll be looking at everything you could need to know about the two, so you can make the smartest choice about which way to go once we’re done. We’ll be checking out the main features, pricing, and other considerations for your note-taking pleasure.
Let’s hop to it!

What is Notion?
Notion promotes itself as an ‘all-in-one workspace’, aiming to be the central tool for your team’s project, task, and informational needs.
It’s built on three components; Team Wiki (base of information for the company), Projects and Tasks (where you can distribute and manage assignments), and Notes and Docs (where you can make and share notes or documents).
What is Evernote?
As we mentioned above, at its core, Evernote is an advanced note-taker.
It was designed as a mobile app for quick and efficient note-taking, and it features tools to capture ideas from multimedia sources with the same ease.
With Evernote, you’re able to add text, images, audio, scans, PDFs, and documents to your notes, which can be structured and formatted according to your personal preference.
Evernote relies on cross-platform compatibility and app integrations to expand its functionality, making it a good complement to your existing ecosystem.
The premium Business price plan for Evernote users introduces shared workspaces where other users can collaborate on the same meeting notes, much like a traditional organizational tool.
Which is more budget-friendly?
TL;DR – Both have a free plan for personal use. However, both the individual and team-based premium plans are slightly more expensive with Evernote.

How do their integrations stack up?
Integrations refer to the third-party applications that can interact with the core tool in meaningful ways.
Notion integrations
Notion allows you to embed content blocks to a Notion page from a variety of different sources.
These include Google Drive, GitHub, Figma, Loom, and more. However, core third-party tools like Google Docs aren’t integrated from the ground-up level, as Notion offers their own versions of these tools with the aim of replacing them entirely.
Evernote integrations
Evernote takes a different approach, integrating applications like Gmail, Outlook, Salesforce, Google Drive, Slack, and Microsoft Teams into the core workflow.
For example, you can save incoming emails and share Evernote notes easily without leaving the Gmail app.
We believe greatly in the efficiency of integrations, which is why we offer more than 40 of them!
What about security?
If you are going to store the entire digital footprint of your business in one workspace, you want it to be secure. Here’s what each tool has to say about their security.
Notion security
Notion use TLS security protocol within and outside the data centres for their app.
They run 100% on Amazon Web Service’s cloud within a VPN so that public access is denied.
Notion encrypts data at rest and in transit, but not end-to-end, as they claim that would make the search function impossible to use.
Evernote security
Evernote also uses TLS security for their mixed cloud service/physical data centres.
They use Google Cloud Platform to run their service, which protects data with AES-256 encryption.
But what do customers think?
What do real users of both applications have to say? We’re going to throw this one over to independent SaaS review site G2 to find out.
Notion reviews
Notion scores a solid 4.5 stars from a fairly small group of 133 reviews.
But, of 7 user-dimensions like ‘quality of support’, ‘product direction’, and ‘meeting requirements’, Notion beats Evernote in 5 of them. Not bad, Notion.
Evernote reviews
Evernote scores an identical 4.5 stars, but from a much larger base of 1,800 reviews.
It beat Notion on ease of use, ease of setup, and ease of admin, suggesting that Evernote is the simpler app to plug in and play with.
And, just for the fun of it…
staging-mondaycomblog.kinsta.cloud reviews
staging-mondaycomblog.kinsta.cloud scores 4.6 stars with 1,260 reviews.
So, y’know, if that’s how you’re judging this…
