  1. Well there is one post you should definitely 'zap' as there is plenty of rudeness in it. I've requested a stop to the off topic replies so you and I are on the same page. At this point I'm ignoring all replies that are off topic to the original subject. I appreciate your efforts in this thread that is 90 percent inaccurate tangents and having to explain and educate on why their suggestion doesn't apply, or it's telling me to search the forums which I've already done, or search google etc.... Now I appreciate the spirit of the help that is off topic, but really, I would rather get some on topic information about the actual subject of this thread than continue with this pile on with people being offended by the word "power user". Do I really need to sit here and listen to someone vent how they are offended by "power user". My gosh lets just move on and if there is anyone with some info about notejoy I'm all ears. I've received a few private messages from very helpful users about notejoy and amplenote who have raised pros and cons and are helping me be aware of the benefits and detriments. I'm very grateful for those messages, please keep them coming if you don't want to post publically and deal with all the negativity and defensiveness. Much appreciated. 👍 Thank you.
  2. Thank you all, but if you have something to add about notejoy or any other options to Evernote please reply here, but for all the tangential stuff it's just a waste of time replying to a bunch of suggestions you've never actually applied to the situations being discussed. Test out your theories on a huge evernote stash before suggesting them as the wild goose chases are just a waste of time.
  3. That's even worse, since evernote doesn't allow you to select multiple notebooks to back up, can you image backing up 2000 individual notebooks one at a time? I know you want to help, but as I've said, the experience the casual user has with Evernote is very different than the power user of Evernote, you just aren't dealing with the same numbers of notes and notebooks and don't know what you don't know.

  5. I wish you were right, but there is a reason I said, what I said. My version limits your exports to 100 notes at a time, perhaps you've never tried to export over 100 notes?, or maybe you have some different version? As I've said and irritated a few idiots here by using the word "Power user", if you're a light user of Evernote versus heavy user you probably have no complaints as you don't run into the same problems. Now I'm sure somebody will be offended by using the word "heavy user" 😄 Here is a screenshot of trying to export 1197 notes about Italy. I circled at the top the number of notes - 1197, at the bottom you can see what happens when you try to export more than 100 notes - evernote selects the first 100 notes as it says in the window at the bottom "100 notes selected". At the top in red a box with an exclamation point shows "You cannot select more than 100 notes". This means I have to do 11 separate backups to back just this single stack. Now let's not even mention the nightmare of reconstituting a backup of enex files of thousands of notes since evernote doesn't retain any of the folder structure and you're manually recreating hundreds and hundreds of folders and using tags which you sure as hell had better of used or you're screwed, selecting and moving reconstituted notes back into your original file structure. 😵
  6. lol, wow get back on the meds, nobody wants to be your punching bag and recipient of your juvenile personal attacks
  7. If you're referring running some outside service for backup, that isn't something I would employ with Evernote. My backups need to be done within evernote and they have placed a limit on the number of notes you can back up at one instance now. It used to be that you could select 1000 notes and Evernote would break them up into individual enex files for you while it was exporting them, not anymore.
  8. Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the 20GB limit is something I have in for answers from their support right now. Preliminarily I was told the limit is on a "Library" which in Evernote talk would be a stack and you can have unlimited library, however, even with this work around this could affect the usefulness of the nested folders option, forcing out folders that should be deep down nested in a library out to become their own independent folder or "stack" which would defeat the usefulness of the nested folders option. I'm surprised at this restriction too especially since they support video in their notes and this can add up fast. It only takes 200 100mb notes to fill this quota.
  9. Thank you for the feed back! Apparently tables are coming according to their development schedule. Have not explored the export/backup yet but thanks for the reminder, very important part of all of this. Community is very small for a 6 year old product!
  10. I will check it out. What things didn't work for you, this is exactly what I'd like to know, personal experiences from users of the software 👍
  11. What other options should I look at? So far notejoy seems to be a direct copy of Evernote, (it looks like a screen grab of Evernote) but with many of the enhancements that evernote users have been requesting for years. Their syncing which has always been a problem in evernote is crazy fast. I made a change on the desktop and it was pushed to the phone app in less than 2 seconds.
  12. According to what I've seen in their documentation of their development the last 2 years have been a steady upgrade in features. I think their strategy was to mine the Evernote forums for grievances and requested updates and implement them into notejoy making it an evernote on steriods. I've been testing it out and nested notebooks are a godsend.
  13. If you're a light user of evernote you hardly have a complaint, power users with thousands of notes and notebooks have a very different experience.
  14. Unfortunately, they removed that possibility through some of their updates for me. I have thousands of notes and the limitations on the back up process now would mean I would spend dozen upon dozens of hours a week doing backups. I've got major info backups accomplished but no way to keep everything backed up and up to date with the new version of Evernote, if they go down its going to be painful
  15. Unfortunately, there was a reason Evernote got sold, and it wasn't because of it's huge profitability. People making fun of a 15 year user with a legitimate grevience is part of the Evernote community problem.
