You choose the notebook or all the notebooks to import and this will create in Notion the notebooks you have in Evernote, but it will do it in a particular way, it will create a Page in Notion for each Evernote notebook and inside a list view and a gallery view. If you enter it, it will ask you to log in to your Evernote account, and then Accept to grant permissions to Notion to show you Evernote content. To start, you have to go to Notion on the left side gray bar, and at the end before the trash can icon, you have the option "lmport", when you click on it, the first option is Evernote, as you can see in the following image: You can also choose whether you want to import everything, or just import a specific Evernote notebook. Every notebook and every Evernote note will be converted into Notion Pages. You can import all Evernote notebooks, with their notes, tags, and images included. If you come from Evernote, we will try to explain how to migrate to Notion, as I have done, and some important extra details, that have helped me, in case it helps you too. Plus just for coming from Evernote, Notion will reward you with $5 in credit redeemable for Pro plans. If you value your time, are a fan of productivity and a note-taking addict, you should at least try Notion. Allowing editing, comments, mentions, duplicating as a template, or being indexed in search engines. In Notion, it's straightforward, from sharing, private individual to the group, or public. If you come from Evernote, you will know how horrible it has always been there to share notes and collaborate. This way you can take advantage of work done by someone else creating the structures, in the most effective way. TemplatesĪs there are so many possibilities that Notion offers you, you may be overwhelmed, that's why it comes with a directory of templates, that you can copy, modify and use as you prefer. Notion pages, both normal text and database pages, can be linked together and interconnected like a wiki, where each paragraph of text is an item to link to or convert into a page or database item, opening up a world of possibilities. You can embed inside a page absolutely everything you can think of, as it happens in a web page, but in a much more powerful, easy, and visual way. You can use Markdown and by entering a simple / when typing, it opens the context menu, with all the options to add or embed. VisualĮverything can be moved by dragging it visually. DatabasesĮvery page you create as a database is like a table of information in rows and columns, but comes with interchangeable views of the database so that the same information can be easily added and displayed as a list, gallery, or board (Kanban), timeline, or calendar. Or even create powerful dynamic tables integrated into the pages. Highlight notes with emojis in the title visible from the sidebar that allows you greater agility of access. Where formats have no limit and you can write infinite nested notes, which seems minor but changes everything. With Notion, you move from the concept of a digital notepad to an interconnected database. although I discovered it late and I must admit that with initial distrust, now I am delighted with Notion. And best of all, with an incredible meta-search engine that finds everything, no matter where and how I annotated and saved it, the truth is that I am tremendously grateful for all these years of productivity.īut after the decline of Evernote, something new has arrived, some time ago. On the other hand, Evernote allowed me all these years to have all my information at my fingertips, on my Mac, on my mobile, or via the web, sorted by thematic notebooks, all in one place. but each note or txt file was difficult to find in the folder where I saved it, I had to open it to see its content and therefore to take advantage of everything I wrote down. It was the same, but digital and therefore editable. Then I decided to switch to Windows Notepad, and it didn't get any better. But even so, every time I went to look for something, it was mission impossible, because I had no way of remembering, neither the dates of what I wrote nor which notebook it was in. Until then I had endless paper notebooks, loose sheets of paper, where I wrote down everything: meetings, ideas, tasks, and I tried to keep one notebook after another in order. When I discovered it, a whole world opened up for me. In my case, I have been an advanced Evernote user for 12 years.
