I am combining the two worlds in one account. What I miss is just one additional organization layer that sits on top of stacks. Spaces can be useful for some, but it's not an organizational principle that works for me. For me, spaces introduce a bit more housekeeping complexity which I'd rather avoid. Just love to keep it more simple.

I'd rather see some sort of workspace sitting on top of stacks so you can have the added benefits of organizing stuff in a workspace like spaces (which should be different from Home) whilst at the same time being able to navigate multiple hierarchically structures separately.. i.e. workspaces > stacks > notebooks > notes.

Surely I cant be the first one that offered this kind of suggestion!

You’re not the only one. I’d love something like this and being able to switch workspace, having them self contained as well. I’d probably have separate workspaces for specific clients as well.

I would love to use Evernote for work but the firm I work for has standardized around OneNote. When I finally retire nothing but Evernote.

I've had to use OneNote a few times myself over the years and the one thing I couldn't get used to was the infinite canvas thing where you can put your cursor anywhere on the screen!

Having taken early retirement, I don't have the necessity for separate Personal and Work accounts. All my notes relating to various activities are organiseed in one Professional plan account via Stracks and Notebooks.

If I was still at work, I could see the possibility of organsing things by using an EN Space for Work things, and another Space for Personal things. However, as Stacks are not available within Spaces I'm not sure how well-organised that would be.

I'd love me some retirement right now. Feeling old! I did here stacks in spaces mentioned a few times so I think its on a list somewhere. Could be useful.

I don't have any work-related notes but the majority of my notes relate to a hobby project of mine. Those notes are all in their own stack and are also tagged to make it easier to exclude any notes relating to that project from any searches for other stuff.

Have you found a use for spaces at all?

I did try Spaces when they were first introduced but after persevering for a bit I felt they just added another layer of complexity with no benefits.

The fact that the oldest Evernote features work fine for my workflow shows that Evernote was the right choice for me🙂
