Wan Beeler 2 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Like many professionals my work provides me hardware and I am very diligent to keep my work and personal data separate. However I do leverage Evernote to keep track of work Tasks and Notes, currently under a separate account (Free Plan). What I'm wondering is if anyone knows of a way to use my personal Evernote account (Paid Subscription) but not sync or not grant access to my personal notes from a work device. Honestly trying to avoid the need for two subscriptions. TIA Wan Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,070 Posted September 19, 2022 Level 5* Share Posted September 19, 2022 Hi. It's not possible to secure only part of your account - and believe me there's no such thing as 'secure' if we're talking about data stored on a work computer. If a free account doesn't have enough resources, could you share a notebook from your personal account to the free work one? If you have a free account - check the cost of an upgrade. Evernote were throwing around 25% discounts (for the first year only) recently... Link to comment
Level 5 Solution PinkElephant 8,819 Posted September 19, 2022 Level 5 Solution Share Posted September 19, 2022 @Wan Beeler Just use the web client instead of the installed one. To be sure nothing is cached, you can open EN in a private browser window. It will not save anything after the window was closed. Hint 1: Be prepared for longer loading times, because everything needs to be loaded from the EN server. Hint 2: Some companies forbid the use of cloud services, and maybe even block access in the firewall. Hint 3: Even when data transfer is encrypted, in a setup where somebody else is in control there is no protection against everything transmitted is logged and read. If you want to know how, google for „man in the middle attack“. The only really private way is to use EN on a personal device through a public / mobile network. Link to comment
Wan Beeler 2 Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Thank you both for the insight and suggestions. I didn't consider the web interface, which may be a viable solution in my case. 2 Link to comment
