The Real Difference
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Amplenote stands out with Notes, tasks, and calendar unified in one app and Rich backlinks with inline task references. Evernote counters with Document scanning and Search inside images and PDFs.
Amplenote's Achilles heel: the task scoring system has a learning curve, and the ui feels dense until you customize it. Evernote's: has been declining for years — frequent price hikes, lost features, and the free plan is now nearly unusable at 1 device. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Bottom Line
If you value notes, tasks, and calendar unified in one app and people who are tired, go with Amplenote. If people who clip a matters more, Evernote is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
