I just got a pop-up message suggesting I changed to the Evernote Web BETA interface.
I must say that I'm extremelly disappointed with this update.
Here are a couple of reasons:
1) No reminders on top of notes when I click on a notebook
I run multiple projects in Evernote, each one has a notebook. In these notebooks I store project information, research and todos or reminders.
If I want to see what I have to do, at a glance, in the previous version I would just click the notebook and see all my project reminders at the top.
With evernote BETA that went way and I can't find a way to show my reminders by notebook/project
2) If I need to get to a note, I now need more clicks.
Click the icon on the left to get to notes, find a notebook through the gigantic font list of notebooks, click a notebook and open a note. (4 clicks)
Previously, I would just pick a notebook from the side view and see all notes and chose the note I wanted (2 clicks)
3) Design is confusing
Fonts are huge, the notes list is centered on my scree (21") so there's a lot of weird white space around it.
There are not very clearly defined boundaries between different sectinos of the screen. It's hard to tell where the separation of the note title and the note text is.
The new note toolbar on the side isn't helpful at all, I would like to see all options at glance.
4) The interface is completely different from the PC/MAC
Why completely change something that worked well, instead of improving performance of the previous web interface ?
5) Can't find a way to go back
I had just switched to a premium account yesterday. Since I cannot seem to be able to continue using my previous workflow in this new interface, I'm going to have to reconsider staying a paid customer.
