The search abilities broadens the utility of the information-management service. And, thanks to its OCR and image search, you can also get results if you're trying to search for a specific image. And one of the great strengths of Evernote's search capability is how it searches the text of any PDFs, Word documents, epub files or other digital assets you've uploaded to your account. I am, however, a saver of PDFs and ebooks. I'm an assiduous digital archivist, but I'm not 42,000-new-books-a-year level. Or in book-nerd talk, that's 42,000 Kindle books every year. In music-nerd talk, that's basically 30,000 new MP3 tracks every year. All I have to do is stick to 120 GB of new information every year. I basically pay $50 a year for an infinite hard drive. I've looked, but there's no apparent limit to the total size of my Evernote account. There is no point in setting up a workflow for getting things into your information-management tool of choice, or in devising an organizational scheme for all your notes, if you can't return to the collection at a later date and find exactly what you're looking for.īecause I do have an Evernote Premium account, I enjoy a storage limit of 10 GB of uploads monthly, meaning I can create and store 10 GB of information monthly, with a limit of 200 MB on an individual note. Let's move on to searching for information, chucking new notes into your systems automatically, or sharing your collections with others. In the first installment of the ten-task faceoff, I covered how to create notes, organize them and cross-reference them in both Evernote and OneNote. In part two, I covered how to upload new files, clip articles from the World Wide Web, and sift items you've mailed into your info-hoard.
And - this is key - I'm using both programs on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.11. I used both of my personal accounts to run the tests. In the interest of full disclosure: I have an Evernote Premium account ($50/year) and a Microsoft Office 365 Business subscription ($99/year). I'm looking at both Evernote and OneNote to see how each handles the basic tasks of creating, collecting, organizing and sharing information and files. "Digital asset creep" - it's either a crafty insult or it's what lots of people deal with as the years spent on a computer pile up.
