  1. My deepest darkest wish has always been for Note comments, Displayed as and with UI similar to Facebook....interactive for anyone sharing the notebook. As with the image depicted! ! Would allow for interaction,but more importantly would allow for expansion of the Notes content,additional thoughts on a clipped web site, additional urls , images etc....serving functionally as nested notes rls,images
  2. The web Clipper is incredible. Separate GPlay download. Check it out. Handwriting is good to go
  3. I have Wiz Notes also with all key Evernote notes loaded. Best app of its kind only issues is its marketed to China primarily. $16/year has you 10,000G Mo. And features and look are brilliant PC even better. Clipper is great
  4. Nimbus by far is the app that has all Evernote's but tops it on a number of key fronts.
  5. Other than user support, which has always been poor) I'm surprised at the growing backlash at Evernote lately..(maybe it's primarily windows users). Aren't many apps that do all it does. Having said that, as a power user, I am always amazed at their development priorities....meaning the many improvements for the Android app for example in lieu of basic data management features: sort by tag, bulk edit (delete, add to notebook, tag, merge, copy link). If your a power user this gets tedious doing it one by one. These are in beta versions of most apps like this. And a list I have of 15 or so more ergonomic style improvements in editing (title of a site/article auto inserted as note title, auto insert cursor when touching note screen, etc, etc...But they're still not enough to shift me to another app...there's always at least one key thing missing on every other app I need.
  6. Wiz Notes also....it's features are better than Evernote and mobile app is superb. Trouble is its a Chinese app (huge over there) ...meaning communication is a little more troublesome. I have a guy who's my goto, who set me up w/Premium ($16.00 yr). Mail in functionality is great. 10Gb/Mo storage
  7. Really? Have you tried communicating with any of these: Apple Microsoft GoogleApple is by far the worst, IMO, and I generally love Apple products. But when I have a complaint, bug report, or feature request, all I can do is to submit into the black hole known as Apple Feedback. If you even try to post that stuff on the Apple Communities board, you immediately get yelled at, and most likely your post will be removed. Although I've rarely seen Microsoft directly respond to users posts, on many of the Microsoft boards they are supported by MVP people, who are generally very knowledgable, even though they do NOT speak for MS. ImI'm
  8. EN product has had the poorest user-communication for applications of its type I've seen. It's lack thereof has been off-putting and insulting. It's perhaps started a turnaround. Evernote has the potential for extraordinary growth as an app, in functionality and revenue generated by that functionality. Pretty sure the new guy sees it.
  9. The only thing that keeps me from using Centrallo is their note's media display which I hate. Looks very amateurish. I need (for work) full image display within the Note as Evernote has and an opportunity to provide comments between images and annotate.
  10. I'll pay the going rate ($50yr... thats nothing) for a quality product
  11. Please explain in detail. Thx. ~ Alan I assume the Google Drive/Trello app alternative is clear. There is also an extraordinary Web app: Memit (Memit.com)...who is releasing their Android and IOS mobile app within a few weeks. It is more of a content curation app but it organizes my data superbly (for my use). Notes in multiple folders, Tags and subtags etc. I imported all my 7000+ Springpad notes there and they auto organized beautifully. An Evernote importer is forthcoming.
  12. If I was severed from Evernote Google Drive and/or Trello would be my Goto. (leaving the pending Memit release for review).
  13. As a CUSTOMER too, it really doesn't MATTER to me if you see the POINT or not. This is the lunacy of expressing one's desire for (very reasonable) evernote features here. Good thing to express it cause that's what forums are about. You might get pain-in-the-ass workarounds which is good, but your job is done in terms of expressing evernotes lack in the area because you'll never get insight from evernote on the matter... as they don't value responding to users about these things. Dont carry on with the evangelists about it because it usually ends like this.
  14. From Users?!!...no from Evernote ticketeers. After all was done, Not once was there a 'hey sorry bout the lost notes and misplaced notes'....sounds petty now actually , but at the time it exacerbated the frustration. I am unclear about what apologies you were expecting from users about your lost notes and the unsatisfactory experience had you with customer support. Perhaps, if you could post some links to the posts we could help remove that chip from your shoulder? As for Evangelists, they no longer exist, so they cannot help Sentinel. Former evangelists, like myself, have done as much as we can to draw attention to the issue (on the forums and in private correspondence) and try to find a resolution. I can assure you that many users of this forum are quite interested in helping out other users and do our best to do so, even if we don't always achieve the results we'd like.
  15. Sentinel, I wish you the best with all of this. I had two ticket rounds with misplaced and lost notes. Bottom line was they thought it was "wierd" that those notes were lost and that all of 2009 and 2010 notes were placed in November of 2011. Over a 800 notes were lost and I just had to deal with it. Because of the less than accommodating let alone apologetic (not close) responses I've had a major chip about Evernotes user responses ever since. It's utterly deplorable....and the evangelists although could be a buffer of sorts, aren't. It's really sad that you have to go public with this...you shouldn't have to. It's a statement of Evernotes user support failings. But it does sound like you could make headway. The best to you.
  16. Have you looked at Trello? Superb Organizational flexibility. Strong support
  17. an alternative (Android, PC, IOS ) is Wiz Note...unlimited sub tags and sub notebooks....also loads entire web pages as notes if your saving web info.
  18. Or....if users want to see the "official" replies from EN, THEY can just search the board, just like GM did... But...they usually don't. Searching a reading takes a lot of time (especially for people who doesn't use English as their first language, like I.). I searched, but I didn't see what GM post. So I misunderstood and got upset when you say hierarchical stacks are not gonna happen. If I see that post, I will directly ask evernote to improve their hierarchical tags. And waste no time on "discussion" of good and bad of tags and hierarchical system. You can search sure, and get a weeks worth of reading on nested notebooks and the fact that they ain't gonna happen. Good luck sifting out Evernote responding directly to it. It's there but a needle in a haystack. Evernote having it's own accessible(closed to discussion) place on the forum, responding with statements regarding most highly requested features is painless. Saying 'They don't comment on their roadmap' is true. Even less painless. But poor user relation practice. They can make a statement and not have to return to it.
  19. I realize that...but if that statement isn't in a place readily accessable for those wanting EVERNOTE'S position on things like that, (and many who keep coming anew to Evernote will always ask for it!), then that fact is fairly worthless in terms of this forum, and we can keep fielding the question, answer on 'behalf' of Evernote and continue on infinitely with the why's and why not's of the issue.
  20. It's a user forum. We are not speaking on behalf of Evernote. I suppose it would be nice if developers would jump in and justify each design decision. Sometimes they do, but we rarely agree I think that it takes a lot of work to respond to users, and I suspect they haven't hired a person to take care of customer relations, so that developers can develop. In the end, that may be a wise decision, because users helping out users can be an effective way of "outsourcing" work, and generate a lively community. I am sure they have spoken more about nested notebooks somewhere, but not so much recently. Here is something I dug up in the forums. http://discussion.ev...ooks/#entry9002 Stacks were introduced a couple of years ago to meet user requests for hierarchies. You can listen to a short discussion of it in the Evernote podcast (Evernote Podcast #24 – The Body Episode. December 27, 2010). Here is a complete list of the podcasts (http://www.princeton...multimedia.html). Not officially on behalf of I know, ....but trying to give to newer users an understanding of where Evernote is positioned regarding an issue. That's a part of any (wise) company's job who want satisfied users and seem responsive to their want's. It's not a lot of work...at least in the way I described it. Even if it was, is it not prudent to do so? A vehicle like 'Get Satisfaction', for example polls the most indemand requests and make statements regarding where they are or aren't with regard to their developmental roadmap usually followed by discussion. There need not even be discussion on customer sites like that. Evernote can say, the only issues we ever discuss are the features we're developing on our open beta's, but also provide statements regarding those top requested features. If it's ' Sorry but we have no plan's to incorporate nested notebooks at this time". Fine. Thank you. Done. It's not rocket science, just simple user relations practice.
  21. Who are these users speaking on behalf of Evernote? Not officially on behalf of, but those in this thread (and I've done it myself...cause we're not likely to have evernote pop in here) who explain what Evernote's alluded-to position is on issues ..like nested notes. And saying: 'Evernote is unlikely to ever support nested notes...blah blah) is very true. But it should be backed up with: 'Here is Evernote's statement to date on nested notes'.
  22. Evernote's biggest failing here is not being more directly communicative here, not frequently, but with the issues that keep returning with lengthy 'discussions' like these. If I'm 'director of user relations' and see continued festering around a topic the company has made a decision on I'm going to make sure a definitive statement is made regarding that decision....probably have it as a sticky somewhere...period. If it's a topic they've closehe door on and aren't fielding discussion on it, fine ,state that. Discussion over. Evernote doesn't do well in this area. Too many users here speaking on behalf of Evernote and thats poor relations behaviour and frustrating for especially new forums users. Want nested notebooks? Your directed to Evernotes statement on it.
