I hate Evernote for the same reasons as must people (because the software quality is garbage, and they just let it languish for years, as they roll out unwanted features). But, it is not true that there are many other products like Evernote.
There actually aren't any products like Evernote. There may be products like the subset of Evernote that you use and the subset of Evernote that this other person uses, but there is nothing directly competing with it on all (or even most) facets of what it does.
SimpleNote, Google Keep, OneNote, Apple's newly-updated Notes, Paperwork, Yojimbo, etc are often cited as potential replacements, but they all do only a small subset of what Evernote actually does.
A lot of people just need to take notes -- and yep, Evernote is a terrible app for that.
But I don't know any other product that lets you, wherever you are, instantly capture computer-based notes, scanned paper documents, contracts, billing statements, photos of napkins and whiteboards and trade show booths, etc. and makes all that content delegatable/shareable to different co-workers, searchable via OCR in multiple languages, and available in both the cloud and via native app across most platforms.
I am pretty sure there isn't such a product, because Evernote is so bad in terms of software quality that I google for one every month or so, and we are still on Evernote two years later.
