Update regarding Nimbus Note. Since all software seems speedy at first, I decided to give Nimbus a real test. I am in the process of importing all 22,000+ of my Evernote notes into it. It has taken 5 days so far and I'm 5/8 finished (Evernote export split the .enex file into 8 parts). However, with a little over 14,000 notes already in Nimbus, it is unusable! Painfully slow. Minutes between loading notes. There may be an issue with my file or it may be due to some background indexing for all of the new notes, but it is absolutely not an option right now. Evernote Legacy does everything

I want to thank JohanDahlberg for starting this topic. I've been an Evernote user for so long that I've gotten stale and repetitive in my usage of it. I use The Brain a lot more now than I use Evernote but reading through these ideas is making me realize how powerful and useful Evernote is. I am 4 notes short of 20,000 and I'm sure I'll get there just by clipping four of the above ideas. I wish we had more topics like this as opposed to the "Why I'm leaving Evernote", etc. Whenever I start using new software (Notion, The Brain, task managers), I often try to figure out ways to get some o

I imported over 19,000 notes from Evernote into Notion a few days ago. I was amazed how quickly it worked and I received a $5 credit from Notion for using the new Evernote importer. However, I'm finding out now that many, many notes did not import. And it appears to be random, not based on any particular type of Evernote note. I may try re-importing one notebook at a time. My largest single notebook in Evernote has 8796 notes and many of those didn't import into Notion. I want Notion to have a full backup of all of my Evernote notes but if some are missing, it kills that idea. I'm going

Gazumped, Thank you. I downloaded X1 to give it a try. Evernote is definitely not searchable in X1 (many unanswered requests for EN and ON on the X1 forums). However, X1 does search The Brain notes, although not thought names. So, my search workflow will be Evernote and then X1. Not an ideal solution but it will help a lot. Thank you again!

Gazumped - Is X1 Search able to search your Evernote notes? I used X1 years ago but may look into it again if it can search Evernote (and The Brain). Outlook, Evernote and The Brain are the places I need to search often.

I found my Welcome to Evernote note, dated 3/21/08. Actually, there are a bunch dated earlier than that, but they were imported from OneNote. And, I remember playing around with the timeline version (reminded me of a roll of register tape). Here is my second note: (I guess I figured it out, since I now have 17,827 notes) Thanks, Stepan!!

Maxrigging, In my opinion, The Brain is much, much more than mind mapping. At first view, I can see where it would look like that. However, spend more than a few minutes on it, watch some videos and you will really understand the depth of the software. I use it in conjunction with Evernote, dropping note links in as appropriate. The Brain forums have a lot of discussion threads on using Evernote and The Brain. Check them out. Here is a good place to start: http://forums.thebrain.com/post/brain-and-evernote-im-in-trouble-6134484?highlight=evernote The Brain is currently

Thanks for the tip on Reflect. I have an Evernote notebook just for Motivational Ideas and Quotes. I've now set up a schedule in Reflect to randomly see 10 of those each day. Great way to start the day and find something that resonated with me at some point in my life. http://www.reflectapp.io/
