- Analemma_ 10y agoEvernote employees, if you're curious what happens to you in this scenario, people who worked at Nokia should be able to clarify.
- binaryanomaly 10y agoI'm afraid you're not that wrong here :(
- bsharitt 10y agoStep 4: Existing application shut down by Google.
- rch 10y agoThe team could transition to Keep, maybe.
- throwawaymsft 10y agoStep 5: Blog post about the wonderful journey users are about to embark on.
- the_man_man 10y agoStep 6: Mention a 2 week shutdown notice and do not provide support to to download data in a sensible way or migrate to a different service.
- msh 10y agoEvernote actually got nice export tools build into their desktop client.
- dmoy 10y agoWhat major Google shutdowns have had only two weeks to migrate and no sensible download?
- tonyjstark 10y ago+1 to all of you, made me laugh and sad at the same time. Maybe Evernote will become a integrated Google+ service.
- vthallam 10y agoIf shut down is in the plan, the move to the Google cloud doesn't completely makes sense, unless they think the big names customers will attract more adopters?
- adrenalinelol 10y agoWas most likely sarcasm.
- rajathagasthya 10y agoCurious what incentive would there be for Google to acquire Evernote? They already have Keep.
- shostack 10y agoThey would acquire users and data from one of Keep's largest and most established competitors short of MS OneNote while simultaneously removing them as a competitor in the market. Seems like a pretty solid incentive if Google is serious about staying in that space.
- ben_jones 10y agoMy guess is enterprise customers
- addicted 10y agoKeep friends and buddies happy. Make sure the shareholders pay so your personal investments in Evernote don't go sour.
