    Price is also something that contributes to our decision. Many users have been complaining about severe limitations of the free version of Evernote and the high prices of premium ones to the point where it makes you think, “Are there any alternatives?” Luckily, there are. Evernote is not the only choice, especially when it comes to more private, encrypted alternatives.

  3. CryptPad is a collaborative office suite that is end-to-end encrypted and open-source.

    • €5.0 / Monthly (Personal 5GB)
    CryptPad is, as the name suggests, type of a Pad. Pads are created as a transformative way for people to collaborate on text (including code), any change to the code done by any of the participants is seen almost immediately. Such technology allows people who are geographically separated to work on the same project as if they were in the same room. Many projects around the world were completed thanks to this technology, but many were sabotaged and/or stolen as well. One major problem occurs here, whoever owns the server that’s hosting this collaborative work can read everything that’s being done. The last thing anyone would want is to have their book, program or even scientific research stolen after 5 months of hard work.
