Came from Craft, loving Evernote

[TeachMindset_JP 5]

Hi everyone. I have returned to evernote and wanted to share my praise for the application.

I am using Evernote for my coaching practice.  The combination of tasks + and notes linked to the calendar is invaluable - as is the ease of sharing notes with clients. 

I am finding the app stable and snappy.

I am optimistic about the direction of travel and the developers' determination. I would hope that once the core stabilises, this leaves room for more nice have's - deeper ios and mac integrations with other apps and services etc.

 

Please keep up the good work team.

Hi, I am also using Craft and Evernote, trying to work out a use case for having both as both are great.  Evernote is the faster of the two now, which a few months ago was definitely not the case. I too really like tasks - being able to root those in my info is really handy for keeping thoughts and tasks together.

Welcome home.

Love tasks and calendar. The home screen is the first thing I look at every morning.

Home is so handy as tasks are right there - I’m great at writing the task but then never checking! Cause they are there I find I am reminded more frequently what I still have to get done.

Craft looks cool but they seem to not be super focused on supporting non-Apple platforms. Their Windows app is fairly new and there is no Android support. I used to be a Mac user and I'm not going back to that. I won't use a product that forces me to work in a certain way. Windows, Android, and Linux can all be extensively customized but macOS and iOS are just too walled off for my tastes. I always cringe when I see a product come out and target Apple platforms before the rest of the universe that by far chooses to use other operating systems.

For the last 6 years I'm mostly a MacOS (and iPhone/iPad) user, but I still also need to use Windows machines as well. I love both platforms. I make sure that all of my "core" software will run on both MacOS and Windows platforms -- either through a native app (or Electron or similar) or web app. 

Craft is a pretty great app and I dabbled with it for a few weeks, but when I did, they didn't have their Windows version out yet. Even if it had, it still didn't feel as good as Evernote to me personally and so I wouldn't have migrated to it.

Evernote is a huge win for my use case as I need a great PKM app that is platform agnostic. Evernote was pretty good at it before, but the clients (and fonts/notes) looked and felt so different across the different platforms but it still worked ok. Now, with v10, it's crazy good for consistent UI and UX across all platforms that I use --> MacOS, Windows, iPadOS, iOS. Bending Spoons has hinted at doing a UI makeover/upgrade to make things even better. I'm optimistic about that and hope they can improve on what I already think is pretty great in that department.

I just see a lot of software seems to launch any only target macOS. Arc Browser and Raycast quickly come to mind. I could never move off of Windows because my workflow is way too reliant on Directory Opus. I can't use a computer without it! Nothing like it exists on macOS or Linux.

How did you transfer all of your notes from Craft to Evernote? Evernote's importing seems to only support their native file format. I am wanting to switch over but I have hundreds of notes in Craft that I don't want to copy and paste over manually.
