Trying to come back to Evernote from Notion - difficulty bringing data back over to Evernote

[bbliss111 0]

I am trying to come back to Evernote from Notion (Mac desktop version). I was an Evernote premium user for several years and tried switching to Notion for the past year and a half.  I had no issues importing my Evernote database/and all the notes when I switched over to Notion.  I am trying to simply bring over the notes I created this past year and a half and start using Evernote again as it was a better solution for me.  However, I am having trouble importing the notes and keeping the note detail (format, date created, and any attachment to note)...It is importing all the notes as if they have the same date.

Any help would be appreciated.  The support ticket I received back said I would have to manually change the date on the notes.....really?  On thousands of notes?

Let me know if anyone has been able to bring over Notion databases/notes back over to Evernote successfully. 

Thanks.

A third-party subscription app - Filterize - can perform batch changes within Evernote files and (I think) can retrieve dates from the note body to add to the metadata or title.  You'd need to check out what's possible,  but if nothing else comes up...

What's Notion export format ?

Notion allows for export of HTML, PDF, or Markdown.

None of it sounds really great. HTML is probably the most feature richt format - maybe try on legacy if v10 does not want to import it.

Hi @bbliss111 have you finally figured out the best way to export from Notion to Evernote?

Just as an opinion: Notion is relying much more on the user to define the data structure than EN.

I doubt there is any „best“ way of moving content from Notion to EN, since ever user will have his own data structure. What works for one will fail for the next.
