Apple's "Notes" application is a well known unreliable piece of shit. Evernote's core functionality is extremely reliable and valuable to a lot of people, including myself. Maybe Apple should buy Evernote.

Since the big update a couple of versions ago Apple Notes is one of the better note apps. Syncing works great, and it has been far more reliable than any of my forays into Evernote.
In the “classic” (non-iCloud, add an account via System Preferences → Internet Accounts) mode Notes.app does store notes on your e-mail server via IMAP.
Perhaps you haven't tried it recently, but Apple's notes app is excellent. I've certainly had less problems with Apple Notes than with Evernote's constant bloody sync conflicts.
I've also found Evernote's core functionality to be an unreliable piece of shit. Almost any time I edit a note on two devices (even hours apart, always online devices) I get a big nasty merge conflict.
Actually, no I don't. I get two copies of the file, with no merge helper.
Really? I think Notes is far superior to Evernote. Notes was shitty but the newer versions since the past 2 years allowed me to completely remove Evernote.
Why would you want to pay billions for a note-taking app when you can have a programmer, a PM and a UX guy make one for less than a rounding error in your budget?
