Zim vs Nimbus Notes

Notes can contain links to other notes, allowing you to reference important information when needed. This way the user can connect and reference many different pages in the app, keeping things clean and structured, unlike Evernote, which makes this a good Evernote alternative.

If/when the app is no longer developed (or if the user simply decides to no longer use the application or view/edit it on a non-supported platform), this can still be done with any plain-text editor.

Zim will automatically create a folder structure that fits your page hierarchy and adds/removes files such as images to/from appropriate folders.

Zim supports HTML, LaTeX, Pandoc Markdown, and RST. This allows ones documents to be easily used in a wide selection of other apps.

Windows, Linux, and BSD are supported with their own clients. This is nice for those that use multiple operating systems but still want to use the same app on each.

An Evernote alternative where categorization is quite easy, as Nimbus Notes uses both a hierarchical folder structure and hashtags (#).

There's a tool for Windows which lets users transfer their notes from Evernote to Nimbus. Here's a guide on how to do it.

Does not restrict you to only two devices like Evernote does for its free version.

Excellent help desk advice and interaction when trying to find a solution to the data issue mentioned previously.
