I used to love Evernote. The thing that killed my enthusiasm for them was the constant upselling, even for paid accounts.

I paid for a Plus monthly subscription (a lower tier) and there were constant advertisements within the app to upgrade to Premium. Upgrade buttons that would reappear even when I remove them, notices on the bottom of the note UI, etc.

I could understand the constant advertising for free accounts, but for paid accounts it was infuriating.



I see no ads/upsells on my free account. Maybe that was one of the things they got rid of after the CEO (new?) announced the new direction.
