A simple hint: Don’t try to mimic something in one tool that was the design conception another. What works nicely in one will never feel natural in another, and will most likely not work. The main organizing concept of EN IMHO could be described as „few notebooks, many tags“ (although others may see this differently).
Get yourself a Basic account, create a limited number of notes (for example for a project) and try what works for your use cases.
Ok noted. "few notebooks with many tags"
I have been using Evernote for years, I'm on Premium account with total 13000 notes now, mainly used to keep personal document/bills/statement and information.
Lately due to work, I'm exposed to OneNote, I find the structure is easy on organizing the pages/notes. At work when I'm picking up new skills, I use OneNote to structure the course contents, it gives me the visibility that I want.
That's why I'm revisiting Evernote functions, see how I can make full use of it, since it is a paid subscription

Evernote Structure is Stacks > Notebooks > Notes
alternatively Tags > Notes
I have minimal notebooks; Tags are my solution for organization
Tags have a parent/child hierarchy for unlimited levels; maximum 100,000 tagsThere is no Notebook > Sections
and no Note > sub-Note (Page > subPage)I can simulate additional levels using prefix naming
For example: aaaaa > aaaaa-bbbbb > aaaaa-bbbbb-ccccc > aaaaa-bbbbb-ccccc-ddddd>>build TOC (table of contents)
This is my solution
It doesn't have to be a separate ToC note, just links in the notesThanks for your sharing. And also about the usage of sub-tags. I need to explore further how to make use of it to design the structure of my notes.
Being able to put page and sub-page in OneNote gives me the visibility and the relationship of the notes to each other in a glance, something missing in Evernote.

Hi,
I have been using Evernote for storing document and repository purpose. I don't find it user-friendly in terms of making notes for study as well as for work as it doesn't have the flexibility of positioning the notes. I search from net, some suggested to build TOC (table of contents) and use Tag for the notes, ya doable but extra effort.
I enjoyed using OneNote for taking notes because the notes can be arranged in a more structured way. It has 4 levels.
1.) Notebook.
2.) Section in notebook.
3.) Page in the section.
4.) Sub page from the main page.
Lately I revisit the capability of Evernote and to see whether I can build the similar note structure in Evernote.
Option 1
1 Notebook = Stack
2 Section = Notebook
3 Page = Notes
4 Sub Page = ?? (cannot be done in Evernote)
OR
Option 2
1 Notebook = Notebook
2 Section = Tags
3 Page = Notes
4 Sub page = ?? (cannot be done in Evernote)
It seems that sub-page can never be mimicked in Evernote. And If I were to use Option1, I would need to create many Notebooks, I just check the limits of Evernote, it can only provide 1000 notebooks.

Kindly share your thought and your experience in managing your notes. Thanks.

Links within notes
in General Feature Requests
Posted
Hi, Evernote has the option to create internal link to a note, I wonder if there is a feature to create a link to the content of a Note? This would make it easier to refer to the specific contents in a Note.
Microsoft OneNote has the option to link the contents in a Note. Make it easy for cross reference between Notes.
