It's unbelievable how such a good product can turn into such a bad thing that it induces a customer from years of using the product and the platform to start a process of mass migration of their data to the competition.
How can a company do not make a market research, a survey among its loyal customers about what they expect or not from a new version. To me, if Evernote continues like this, it really died. And there it is to look for alternatives to other products, which maybe don't have all the features of Evernote but at least they don't charge us for what they can't offer, different from Evernote which keeps charging and at the same time has removed crucial functions for me.
Let's go to the list ofCRUCIALfunctions that have been removed, and that for me disfigure the whole product:
- There is no way to change the color of lateral toolbar from Dark.
- There is no way to put shortcuts list in the top of screen. It will not move anymore
- There are only FIVE Fonts. For me that store computer code in the notes, it is ATERRIBLEchoice
- Desktop App is a web based one, and notes are not synchronized anymore. Just turn off your Ethernet adapter and the program will not show notes anymore. The proof is that you are able to show "developer options" that show a web page render in the right side of the screen. Another proof is you can use the old classic version side by side with the new one, so the new version 10 is not using the database files that is stored locally.
- I can't change the Interface Language. I like to use English Interface, since I can have a lot of info in foruns instead to get translated the Brazilian version to English one.
- I can't create a Notebook inside the Notebook stack as I always did. You need to first create the Notebook, then move it to stack
- I can't grab a screen capture anymore
- I can't Paste text directly to Evernote note (CTRL+shitf+V) anymore
- I can't import a folder anymore
- I can't un-stack a Notebook from a stack using right click mouse. I need to drag an drop them.
- I can't narrow a search inside a specific Notebook or Notebook Stack.
Please, if you noted some another missing feature, feel free to contribute to this list.
The new version for iPhone/iPad is ruined and unless they go back to the previous version I will be dumping my premium subscription. Even simple things like having icons for checkboxes are missing. If you want to add to an existing note, you have to add one checkbox at a time. At the end of an item in a checklist, when you hit return you now lose the checkboxes and have to add it in manually. All basic stuff that has been stripped away for some perceived improvement in how the interface is coloured????
