Evernote vs Springpad





Evernote and Springpad are two very similar apps that do almost the exact same thing: they both record pages, pictures, and articles from Internet research for later use. But, which one is superior? Let's look over Evernote:

Evernote, to me, is inferior in nearly all ways, but that is just a simple opinion. The syncing to get information seems to take longer than Springpad, as well, it doesn't categorize it nearly as well. This is a minor complaint, but I think that the layout and customization is both better looking and easier to do on Springpad. What does Evernote do right? Not much really. The web clipper is worse, because it genuinely seems to take more time to clip the page. I'm honestly struggling to find anything superior about Evernote, but I just can't can't.



Springpad has easier customization, it looks better, group activities are easier to use, organization is a lot cleaner and I like the suggestions it gives you. Maybe my only problem is that is doesn't always leave an accurate picture from the article, taking something out of context or not really right for what I'm saving it for. So which one would I recommend? Springpad, obviously. Did you not read the rest of the entry? I just think everything done on Springpad is by far much more efficient compared to Evernote, at least to me, but I'm not very smart, so take it with a grain of salt.
