Over the last couple of months I have been checking this forum pretty much every day for news of updates, new features, old features restored etc. I don't post very often but appreciate all those who take the time to contribute. Thank you for your insights.
I have over 15,000 notes in Evernote and it pretty much stores all my information but I have decided I need to reduce my reliance on it. The new version still seems to be a long way off being the right tool for my workflow so I am still using 6.25. As the days go by with not much coming from Evernote about restoring a number of the key features, I am no longer confident enough in the future of the product or the company to store all my information. I actually feel quite vulnerable with my current reliance on evernote.
I am gradually moving out all the important notes, documents and things I refer to on a regular basis and going back to a good old windows folder system and google drive to store and sync them. I will only use Evernote for archive items that I probably will never need again but the Evernote search is a great way to find them if I ever do.
I will hang in there to see what does transpire with evernote but I will feel more comfortable with my key data stored elsewhere for the moment.
Cheers
