Evernote dominated note-taking for years, but charging $14.99/month for basic features while removing functionality has left users searching for alternatives. TaskLoco offers unlimited notes, file attachments, reminders, and team sharing without the complexity or enterprise pricing.
The choice comes down to whether you want a simple, affordable note-taking system or are willing to pay premium prices for legacy features you might not need.
TaskLoco Premium is regularly $9.99/month per person. Right now, charter members can lock in 50% off the regular price — forever. That means $4.99/month per person today. And if our price ever goes up, you still pay half. Always.
Code CHARTER50 auto-applies at checkout. First 500 spots only — once they're gone, this offer is gone permanently. Act fast while spots last.
Every Premium subscription includes unlimited notes, 10GB file storage, reminders, calendar, and team sharing. Each team member requires a separate subscription. 7-day free trial — no charge until day 8. Cancel anytime.

Pricing: The Elephant in the Room
Evernote Personal costs $14.99/month with 60GB storage and basic features. Evernote Professional jumps to $17.99/month for 200GB and team features. That's $179.88-$215.88 per year, per person.
$9.99/month per person (currently $4.99/month per person for first 500 charter members with code CHARTER50)
Evernote's free tier limits you to 25MB monthly uploads and 2 devices. TaskLoco Lite gives you 20 notes with no upload limits, completely anonymous, no account required. TaskLoco Lite Plus+ syncs 30 notes across unlimited devices for free.
File Attachments: Where TaskLoco Wins
Evernote's file attachment system is bloated and slow. Premium users get 200MB per note limit, but the interface makes finding and organizing files painful. Search within PDFs works, but the overall experience feels dated.
TaskLoco Premium includes 10GB file storage with clean, fast uploads. Drag any file onto a note and it's attached instantly. No complicated notebook hierarchies — just notes with files. Extra storage is available in 10GB, 50GB, 200GB, and 1TB tiers that stack up to 100x.
For teams sharing documents, TaskLoco's approach is simpler. Attach a file to a shared note and everyone sees it immediately. No permissions management, no folder structures to navigate.
Team Collaboration: Different Philosophies
Evernote Business costs $14.99/month per user minimum 2 users, with shared notebooks and admin controls. The collaboration model assumes complex organizational structures with permissions and approval workflows.
TaskLoco Premium treats every note as potentially shareable. Create a note, share it with specific team members, and everyone gets email notifications on changes. Real-time sync means updates appear instantly. No notebook management, no complex permissions.
For small teams that need to share project notes, meeting minutes, or file collections, TaskLoco's approach eliminates overhead. Each person subscribes individually — no minimum seats, no enterprise sales calls.
What TaskLoco Can't Do
Evernote has features TaskLoco doesn't: web clipping with full page formatting, handwriting recognition, advanced search filters, and extensive third-party integrations. If you clip dozens of web articles daily and need them perfectly formatted, Evernote wins.
TaskLoco's Chrome extension captures webpages in one click, but as simple text notes — not full formatting. The focus is on capturing key information, not archiving entire web pages.
Document scanning is another Evernote strength. Their mobile app scans documents with OCR and makes them searchable. TaskLoco lets you attach photos and files, but doesn't process them automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is TaskLoco cheaper than Evernote?
$9.99/month per person (currently $4.99/month per person for first 500 charter members with code CHARTER50)
Can TaskLoco import my Evernote notes?
TaskLoco doesn't have direct Evernote import, but you can export your Evernote notes and manually recreate important ones in TaskLoco. Most users find this a good opportunity to clean up their note collection.
Does TaskLoco work offline like Evernote?
TaskLoco Lite works completely offline with no account required — 20 notes stored locally on your device. TaskLoco Premium requires internet connection for syncing, but cached notes remain accessible during brief disconnections.
Can TaskLoco clip web pages like Evernote?
TaskLoco's Chrome extension captures webpage content in one click, but as clean text notes rather than full formatted pages. It's designed for capturing key information, not archiving entire articles with original formatting.
Does TaskLoco have document scanning?
You can attach photos and documents to TaskLoco notes, but there's no automatic OCR processing like Evernote. Files remain searchable by name and the text content of your notes.
How does TaskLoco handle team sharing compared to Evernote?
TaskLoco lets you share individual notes with specific team members instantly. Everyone gets email notifications when shared notes change. It's simpler than Evernote's notebook sharing system but requires each team member to have their own subscription.
Can I organize notes in folders like Evernote notebooks?
TaskLoco uses a simple note list with search and tagging rather than complex folder hierarchies. This makes finding information faster but provides less organizational structure than Evernote's notebook system.
