How To Import Evernote Content into OneNote

 

Evernote recently increased their prices to encourage more users to upgrade to their paid service packages and limited their free account, known as Evernote Basic, to access by just two devices.

I would venture to say that very few of us use just two devices these days so that limitation is likely to hamper many users of the free service from Evernote.

There will be plenty of Evernote users who are heavily invested into that ecosystem and, like our own Lisa Schmeiser wrote yesterday, will be sticking around because of the time investment and increased subscription cost offset. As she said time is money and for her it makes more sense to stay with Evernote instead of migrating everything to another platform.

Speaking of migrating to another cloud based note taking option, Microsoft's OneNote is one of the options many will be choosing over Evernote because it remains a completely free alternative. When you combine the OneNote Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app, syncing notes via OneDrive and the recently released OneNote Importer Tool you can easily regain the ability to share your notes across multiple devices, ecosystems and platforms at no extra cost.

This gallery will walk you through the OneNote Importer tool and how easy it is to import all of your Evernote data into OneNote.

 

 

 

About the Author

Richard Hay

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
