  1. I see this as a free trial to try out the product
  2. Evernote has no support for Folders For organization, there’s two fields in the Note record: Notebooks, Tags with Tags being the primary organization tool
  3. https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005917-Access-notes-offline >Is there a way to export all my files at once to back up? Or do I need to export one notebook at a time? ”all files” export was an option for Evernote Legacy; notebook assignment was not preserved With Evernote v10, “all files” is not an option; each notebook has to be exported individually
  4. What format do you need for your data? On Windows and Macs, there’s an option in Settings for an offline copy of the data but I find the format not useable I used the export feature to get a copy of my data
  5. Evernote has never had support for folders For organization users are provided two fields: Notebooks and Tags Some users mistakenly consider notebooks to be folders My organization method is tags; minimal notebooks I reflect hierarchy with my name standard For example; Budget, Budget-Housing, Budget-HousingRent, Budget-HousingUtilities > How hard … I don’t think it’s difficult to implement hierarchy (nesting) Evernote already did this with the Tags field It requires updates to the database structure, and user interface
  6. What are you planning to do with the files? Evernote is a cloud service, with data stored on the Evernote servers There is an offline option with data stored locally, however it’s not in a useable format
  7. Integrated scripting via Applescript (Mac) was dropped in the v10 product I’m not “up in arms” but this forced my transfer to another product >Tasks are a huge part of my workflow Likewise, project/task management is important to me My workflow was implemented in Evernote Legacy, long before the v10 product I made use of tags for status; reminders for due-date; and scripts (Applescript)
  8. Evernote is note centric - there’s always a note with optional attachments Both a like/dislike for me - we can’t simply store pdf files
  9. It happens - I’ve mis-filed documents To recover, I fall back to the text search feature. Creation date could also be useful Also I have a consistent naming/keyword standard for documents fwiw I’m not seeing it as a notebook vs tag issue .
  10. I did my export daily But only changed notes; based on modification date
  11. Local Notebooks; notes are only stored offline on the device - there is no sync to the cloud or other devices Local Notebooks are only supported by the Evernote Legacy product This feature was dropped with the v10 product >if I leave Evernote … sever my ties to Evernote? You will not be able to access your Evernote data You need to export your data An alternative is to convert your account to the basic free tier
  12. The company might reduce their internal expenses for the product; possibly by laying off staff assigned to the product
  13. Why is your message so bitter I also had my goodbye point; I thank Evernote for the past service and wish them success in the future
  14. For myself, using a Mac; Evernote Legacy supports integrated scripting via Applescript This was also useful in transferring my notes to a new platform 🙂
  15. That's how I scan my documents; I set the file type to pdf in Scannable>Settings Note, this scanning feature is built into the Files app
  16. DT automatically syncs data between Apple devices It has various sync options; including cloud sync datastores (dropbox, icloud, etc.) Note; Only Apple devices; not multi-platform like Evernote
  17. I'm an Apple user with a Mac and iPad I transferred my notes to Devonthink, a digital file cabinet product (I'm a user of this product; with no other connection to the company)
  18. My issue was the loss of integrated scripting (Applescript) with the v10 product I also liked the Legacy local data structure; a folder for each note and the Legacy local database could be accessed with an SQL browser
  19. Agreed; I keep all my data in a a single location (notes/documents/files) Evernote Legacy worked well; I'm now using Devonthink (Apple) For enhanced views of my data, I use spreadsheets (Apple Numbers) Examples; budget/expense reports, task list in a gantt calendar view I use scripts (Applescript) for automated workflows
  20. Adding to @Mike P's post; just move the notes The tags/subtags are already defined for the database, and will be available in the new notebook
  21. I converted from Evernote Legacy to Devonthink It has no web client; all the data is local but syncs between my devices
  22. Your profile says you joined the forum on June 21 This is your only post
  23. Please explain how this "worked just fine" As I recall, this was a hack and would only sort the lowest sequence tags My sort by tags solution is an Applescript; which worked just fine with Evernote Legacy on my Mac
  24. For planning, my time frame is today I use a daily planner note to time-block my day The note is created each morning from a template and I insert entries from my calendars and task list My task list is sorted by due-date / priority / duration Look to this day: For it is life, the very life of life. ... For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only a vision; And today well-lived, makes Yesterday a dream of happiness And every tomorrow a vision of hope. Kalidasa
