Evernote costs $14.99/month ($129.99/year) for Personal or $17.99/month for Professional. Once the gold standard of note-taking, Evernote has lost users to free alternatives like Notion, Apple Notes, and Obsidian. Here's how to export your notes and cancel.
In 2023, Evernote gutted its free tier to 50 notes and 1 notebook. If you cancel Premium, your existing notes stay but become read-only once you're over the limit. You must export before canceling or risk losing access to your own notes.
Where to import:

| Obsidian | Free | Power users, local-first | ✅ Plugin |

Casual notes: Apple Notes (iPhone users) or Google Keep (Android) — both free, sync everywhere
Heavy note-taker: Notion (free, powerful, imports from Evernote natively)
Privacy-focused: Obsidian (free, your notes stay on your device, not the cloud)
