I have recently been teasing out the Macjounrnal and Evernote software as a means of collating all of my software. I have switched repeatedly between the two never knowing which is the best one to use! Here are a few pointers I have learned across the way. Some points may be inaccurate if I haven’t researched them correctly however...
Both do very similar things
Macjournal
Advantages
- Easily allows you to post your notes out to your blog
- Allows you to colour label your notes
- Allows you to easily view your journals and notes along side one another
- Online, one-to-one help was very good and personal
- Easy to create a pdf of all of your notes
- Allows you to see which notes you have posted out to your blog
Disadvantages
- I did have some problems starting up
- It costs $35
- No limit on upload amount
- Doesn’t have much online help other than a guidebook which doesn’t really give you visual examples of what it is explaining
Evernote
Advantages
- Nicer user interface
- No upfront payment
- It has an atlas function which you can tag your entries to certain places
- It has more online videos on how to use the software
- You can clip a webpage straight into a note
Disadvantages
- A bit more complicated to post out to your blog, you have to link it up through ‘if this then that’ recipe
- If you want a premium account you have to pay a monthly fee
