Thanks GBarry - let the productivity begin.

Since all our notebooks remain unencrypted and exposed on your servers I don't think people would want to pay more for it. Business users take security more seriously.

Hi,

just want to ask if you are thinking of other countries to use evernote business? Like Czech Republic?

Thank you

Hi Matthew,

This came up a while ago and whilst I am sure it will happen, there may be a quicker solution!

Do you have someone in the business or a UK/USA contact who could set up the account for you?

Best regards

Chris

Sounds good, yes I have friends in UK:)

Thankou you for advice,

Hi is there anybody in Perth Australia using Evernote business that can help me with the setting up of this software as I am finding it quite different from the Premium Version. My Skype name is: josephmckeown1

Thanks

Hi Dante and welcome to the forum,

 

If there is no one, why don't you explain what you are having difficulty with and we may be able to help?

 

Best regards

Hi Chris

 

Thank you for responding to my email as I do not get any response to the EN Support team

Well my problems are fixable I just need to know how to go about it.

Firstly tags don't seem to work or dragging or dropping does not work either.

How do you enter data into business diaries . There were plenty of videos and Docs on the web when I decided to go with evernote Premium, but the same cannot be said for EN Business!

Thank you

Hi Dante,

 

Not sure why you have not heard from Evernote support. But do remember that they will be working on problems rather than requests for help, which is what the forum is really for.

 

We will need to have more information such as what version of Evernote you are using along with what platform and software.

 

As well as this more detail will be required on how you are trying to drag and drop. So is this on the Web or within the software for example. How are you trying to tag and what about doesn't seem to work?

 

As to business diaries there is of course no such thing! Remember that Evernote is not a diary but a note taking application.

 

However I do have a system that allows me to use Evernote as a diary and really my own simple to do list which I have copied below. I hope it helps.

 

Best regards

I have a Notebook called 'Diary 2013' and a Notebook called 'Diary 2013 - Completed'

 

As tasks arrive on my desk they go into my diary in one of two ways.

 

Simple tasks go into a new Note which is created every day. The Note would be titled '130417 - General'  for today.

The task is typed or copied into the Note and then a check box is added to the bottom and a line.

 

The next task that arrives for me goes below this line.

 

Any emails that need dealing with get sent to my 'Diary 2013' Notebook. I do this by clicking on a 'quick step' in Microsoft Outlook which I created. It adds @Dairy 2013 to the end of the title and then moves the email to my archive file. I add the date code currently manually to the front of the email title. So by way of example lets say I get an email with the following title:

 

Quotation Required By XYZ Company

 

This will be forwarded and the new title will be:

 

130417 - Quotation Required By XYZ Company

 

 

 

With tasks now in various Notes I begin to work on them.

 

Any communication from a customer is highlighted in Green

 

Any communication from a supplier is highlighted in Purple

 

Any communication from me is highlighted in Red

 

This allows easy viewing of notes within a Note.

 

Once the task box has been completed as stated above the Diary Note is moved to the 'Diary - 2013 - Completed' folder.

 

It becomes an easy way of dealing with tasks as I go through my day. If a task is important I don't at the moment have a best method for highlighting this, other than writing in capitals in the title IMPORTANT. I am exploring a couple of ideas at the moment.

 

What this method does for me is keep all of my tasks in one location and by keeping the date code (thanks again for the suggestion GrumpyMonkey) the Notes are in date order.
