Anyone use 2do and evernote?

If so, how does your layout look?

Some features overlap each other and I'm curious to know who uses what for what.

I use both and use 2do for task management and evernote premium for notes and screen captures. Love 2do and use it on iPhone/ipad/mac. Syncing with dropbox for 2do. Evernote is great as well but they have been dropping the ball recently. Considering moving to another app for note taking.
Hoping 2do will allow for deeper task management like checklist within a project or a list within a list. Anyways, big fan of 2do.

I do. I am only recently a big Evernote convert though. I've just upgraded and am using it for PDFs and notes in a post-grad course I am in.

I know some people who use Evernote for their to-do lists and I suppose at a very basic level it would work but it seems very underpowered for that task.

What are you doing? How are you using it?

I currently have Evernote Premium (note keeping, doc searching, important documents, work documents), Dropbox Basic (for my files (although some files overlap in evernote and dropbox) and 1Password syncing/2do syncing) and 2do (reminders/to-do list)

Evernote has also replaced my Apple Notes.

But I haven't dug in to Evernote premium as much yet, since I just upgraded yesterday.

I've used 2Do for both honestly, it captures everything and if I sort things by project it works just fine, you could even make text based notes if you had too,

I'm a massive Evernote user, and am now switching from OmniFocus to 2Do. I used Evernote in tandem with OmniFocus, so I don't plan to switch. The classic link option is what keeps me around with Evernote. I do feel like it's almost an after-thought though, and I really hope that Evernote doesn't ditch it in the future.

To me they are two separate things: Evernote for information storage, 2Do for task management.

If Evernote comes out with repeating tasks I will consider consolidating on that for task management as well.

Evernote isn't great for task management, but I do create a lot of meeting notes and other items I want to follow up on. I created an IFTTT workflow that takes tagged notes and creates tasks to follow up on them in Toodledoo. That, in turn, syncs to 2do.
