andrewg 6 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Am I correct, if I purchase a premium account; that the shared notes and notebooks are editable by the person i choose to share them with?If so, are the notes and notebooks searchable by this person if they have a free account?

Frank.dg 1,385 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Hi Andrew, You'll need to do some tinkering... when you share a note/ notebook, you have the option to give editing permissions to whoever you are sharing with. Alternatively that person can also request editing permissions within the note/ notebook itself, which will arrive via email. Shared notebooks are always searchable, whether or not you have given anyone editing permissions. I think the restriction comes in with the number of free users you can give editing permissions to. I'm not sure if that has been changed, but it used to be that you could authorize one free user to edit a shared notebook. Link to comment
andrewg 6 Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Thanx Mr.Does anyone know about number of free users that can have editing privleges on a premium notebook? Link to comment
Frank.dg 1,385 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Maybe I'm getting my wires crossed. It may have been that a free user could only extend Notebook editing permissions to one other user, which may or may not still stand. Here's an easy test to clear the matter up... as a premium user, share a notebook and give editing permissions to at least 2 other free users. If you can, I am positive that there should be no restrictions. Sorry for the confusion. It is not easy at the best of times to get to the bottom of a few limits, which have changed on occasion and which are not made clear in the Evernote Knowledge base. Link to comment

andrewg 6 Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 I am still not clear on how many free users can edit a notebook that I would share. I'm only looking to have a working group of up to six. Two or three most likely including myself. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted March 22, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted March 22, 2015 Hi. I believe there is an official limit to how many users - free or otherwise - can edit a shared notebook, but it's way higher than 6. There are practical limits too, in that changes need to be synced from one user to the server, then from the server to all other users, before everyone has the latest copy of the note. Please stress to your users that they need to sync before, during and after editing any content to make sure they're using the latest version. The best way to find out if this works for you though, is to run your own evaluation - free accounts have syncing powers too, so a practical test needn't cost you anything but time... Link to comment
