1/13/2024 0 Comments Notion vs evernoteThis is something Evernote implemented in a small way in recent years, but it’s a very limited feature in their app. Here’s the cliff notes for today: You can probably create a template for anything. I have finally started digging into how this works and I’m still in the “I”m in Awe” stage, so I’ll get around to sharing and talking about that later. Like this one (one of Notion’s templates): You have full Markdown capabilities, but you can add in tables, databases, images, embeds and so much more. In Notion, you have so much more flexibility when it comes to writing content. This was a big part of the workflow I created to get things from Evernote, so I didn’t have to individually bring over images -so I’m hoping there’s a workaround or a solution coming soon. ![]() ![]() I’ve tried both images I pasted into a Notion page and ones I uploaded in and neither one works. The one not-so-great part is that images aren’t coming through on the copy/paste. While it’s not perfect between Notion and Wordpress, it’s pretty darn easy: I can just copy and paste and the formatting stays put. So writing that content in Evernote, which just worked for me, because it was simple and easy to jot ideas down and come back to them later, and getting blog posts into Wordpress took the steps I mentioned above, because Evernote uses its own formatting scheme. There is simple formatting and what made it particularly hard to find a way to import/export is that Evernote uses its own formatting scheme. And I found really elaborate ways to automate getting those blog posts into Wordpress.Įvernote drafts are fairly limited. I was using Evernote as the hub for all my writing content – notes, outlines, blog posts, all of it. Writing notes/posts – so many more options in Notion. Here are some of the Duke-It-Out Comparisons for me: 1. The paid accounts are very reasonably priced and worth it to clear the content limitations on the free account (which I have yet to hit.) And Notion offers a free account with enough play room for you to really get to know it well. While it does have what I would consider a high learning curve to become comfortable with all it can do and really start seeing the potential, I think that curve is absolutely worth it and I’ve started importing my notebooks from Evernote into Notion. When I heard about Notion and checked it out, I realized it had the potential to not only replace Evernote but maybe a few other steps in my process. What you can do with a post is very minimal. It offers very limited structure options. Getting content out of Evernote is complicated because of its formatting. ![]() I used Evernote for so many things – keeping track of details, recipes, notes, building out research libraries for my books, drafting blog posts, topic ideas and articles and so much more.īut Evernote has limitations that I’ve butted up against more than once. It’s been a great app that I’ve used for years. Its simplicity, its mobile app, the syncing ability across everything. There are certain things that I love Evernote for. Here are just 5 reasons right now I’m moving to Notion: So for those of you who are thinking of making the switch from Evernote to Notion, here are some thoughts from a former diehard Evernote fan. As I’m playing with the app, getting to know it, learning what it can do, I’m finding more and more what I love. I mentioned in my first “kicking the tires” post what some of my quick needs were as I started investigating, so in this post I thought I’d show how Notion is turning my head. Paid subscription, told lots of people about it, shared notes, yada yada… but since someone mentioned Notion in a tweet a while back, I’ve been testing it out and getting to know it. I have been a long time, loyal Evernote fan.
