Evernote is one of the most popular notes applications available combining extensive note-taking functionality with advanced productivity tools. However for many users the full feature-set is overkill and Evernote Sticky Notes from the same stable sets out to meet a much simpler need without making things overly complicated or resource-hungry.

What Evernote Sticky Notes Does

This application lets the user pin important notes to the desktop so that they're always visible. Each note can be a different custom colour allowing a simple way of distinguishing entries of varying importance urgency or category. All notes are automatically backed up to the user's Evernote account or via Dropbox or Google Drive meaning that not only are they securely stored but they can be easily accessed from any device. Keyboard shortcuts make adding editing or deleting individual notes a breeze.

Who Is Sticky Notes For?

While the main Evernote application is one of the most widespread notes applications its wealth of features means that for many users it's overqualified for simple note-taking tasks. Evernote Sticky Notes takes a much simpler approach to organising important notes and while it lacks any features beyond its basic functionality it meets its aims perfectly well without undue use of resources.
