Save on Evernote With a Premium Educational Discount

An Academic Discount

Evernote Business may be available for qualifying institutions. In the past, these discounts have been as high as 75%.

About Evernote Business as Compared to Other Plans

Evernote offers free, Premium, and Business plans which offer varying access to the desktop, mobile, and online versions of the popular note app.

The Free account is a general note solution for personal or casual use.
Premium is about $5 USD monthly and great for solo business owners and other professionals. It offers valuable extras including PDF annotations, searchable text in images, and passcode lock.
Evernote for Business includes everything Premium does and then some. This tier is normally about $10 USD monthly and great for teams, or in this case, classes and study groups. With the discount, either you or your school could, therefore, pay about $2.50 USD monthly per person. Again, all discount rates are subject to Evernote's current offers.

Privacy Issues

Evernote has a policy regarding minors that school will need to agree to. Basically, schools are responsible for divulging privacy considerations to their students.

The Evernote sites linked to in this article will connect you with this information. Schools also assume responsibility for making sure users of the product are under the supervision of guardians, parents, and/or school administrators.

Evernote can even ask for schools to provide them with consent forms, so this is definitely something you will want to look into, to make sure it works for your organization, and ultimately, your students and their guardians.
