Moleskine Evernote Business Notebook with Smart Stickers, Large, Black, Hard Cover (5 x 8.25)

Love this notebook!! Its a good size and feels very durable, I personally use it as a log/journal book and it works great. It comes with a free 3 months of premium which is the main reason I got it and the paper is very good. I use gel pens and it sometimes has an issue drying but that comes with the thinker, nicer paper stock. Something to keep in mind especially if you are left handed like me! No other complains at this time, I am loving everything about it.

Yes, it is rather expensive for a notebook, but the quality is well worth it. This notebook can be used alone, but it is intended to be used with the Evernote App for apple. I have been using Evernote for several years and this notebook allows you to take traditional paper notes and then capture them with your phone/ipad and always have your notebooks with you. I could write a very long review of Evernote, but it would be easier for you to just go to the evernote website and see how it works. Great product.

I am new to the world of notebooks and journals. For years, I took notes on yellow legal pads and had notes scattered all over the place. Last year, I started a new job that requires me to attend lots of meetings, so I needed digital versions of my notes so I could actually find them later and do key word searches on them. I also needed remote access to my notes. When I came across the Moleskine Evernote Business notebook, I thought I’d found the perfect solution. With these notebooks, I’d be able to handwrite my notes (my preference) and also have a digital version saved in Evernote.I’ve been using these notebooks for almost a year now. There is a lot to like, but also a pretty big con.Pros:--Well-constructed notebook, attractive design--Ivory paper is pretty and smooth; feels great to write on. There is some show through of ink (ghosting), however (I use a Pilot G-2 0.7 pen.)--Page numbers and an index to serve as a table of contents are a nice bonus--Comes with three months of Evernote premium membership (you can ignore the expiration date; the code will still work), which makes the notebook a great deal--The notebook pages scan in to Evernote neatly; you only have note pages and not the notebook’s surroundings (e.g., the desk) in your Evernote note--Ability to scan in multiple pages from the notebook into a single note in Evernote (which is not the case for a competing product, which I also like, the Whitelines Leuchtturm 1917)Con:One of the supposed selling features of these business notebooks, as opposed to the regular non-business Evernote notebooks, is that after you’ve scanned note pages in to Evernote, you can choose to share either the whole page or just the “public” section above the picture of the lock with others via email. This way, if you like, you can share your notes with your colleagues, but use the lower 1/3 of the page for private notes for your eyes only. (Note that this feature only works when emailing notes. Also, as far as I can tell, you only have the option to share a portion of the page when emailing the notes from my iPhone [or iPad] Evernote app. I didn’t see the feature on my Mac app or on the old or new web versions of Evernote.)The problem is that there is some kind of bug in the Evernote program. This is a big con because having reliable digital copies is really important to me. Though I *think* I’ve found a workaround, it’s not ideal.Scanning pages from the business notebook into Evernote leads to duplicated and missing pages being stored in the app. I have five Moleskine Evernote Business notebooks full of pages with handwritten note, which have been scanned into Evernote via my iPad Evernote app. In May, I went to review one of the notes from December on my desktop computer (new web version) that had been scanned in. The original note contained a total of six pages, but I noticed that, in the Evernote digital version of the note, each of the first three pages had been duplicated, and the duplicate pages were not full pages - they only contained a portion of the original page image (everything above the lock or content in the “public” section). Second, the last three pages were not in the file at all. They were completely gone from the note file. This was the case in my Evernote app on all three of my devices: desktop computer via the new web version, iPad, and iPhone. The missing pages were not located on any of the devices, while the duplicate pages were located on all three devices (though, notably, there were no duplicates on my desktop app for Mac, but the pages were still missing). Additionally, I noticed this duplicate and missing pages issue in a number of other notes, as well.I reached out to Evernote for help. One of their Help and Learning agents was great. We had a number of back and forths over email, but, ultimately, she was unable to help me.The agent tried to replicate my issue and also experienced duplicates when she scanned pages into Evernote from the business notebook. (Just as was the case with me, the image looked fine immediately after the scan, but the problems surfaced when she went back to the notes later.) She had one duplicate of each page -- one copy that included the “confidential” section at the bottom and one copy that had that section cut off. When she tested the “regular,” non-business Moleskine notebook, she did not have any duplicates. This led her to believe that the issue may be related to the “confidential” section that is specific to the business notebooks. The agent said she’d pass this info along to her developers, so maybe it will be fixed one day.In the meantime, as an experiment, I tried covering the picture of the lock on each page I scanned with one of the tagging stickers that come with the notebook. That didn't help in the new Evernote web version. I still had duplicates and pages cut off. However, the pages are fine in the old web version and on my iPhone, iPad and Mac app. (It’s only fine in the iPhone and iPad app in the normal view window. There are still duplicates if you click on the notes and zoom in.) Covering the lock fixed the problem, more or less, everywhere except, unfortunately, in the new web version. (I have no idea why.) I haven’t had any missing pages since I tried this method either.This is my workaround, which is of no use to you if you want to use the private note feature (I don’t) because you’ll lose that functionality by covering up the lock. It’s also not ideal to be forced in to putting stickers on each page of your notebook. However, there’s a lot to like about this notebook, so it might be worth it to you to tolerate the inconvenience in order to have intact notes on your iPhone and iPad.

I love using Moleskine notebooks for work. They are small, they hold up to being dragged around to business meetings and they look very professional. The stickers other evernote features are helpful for organizing my notes. I like the locked section in the business notebook and the numbered pages. I save everything in evernote so the streamlined system works great for me.

It's okay. I like that they added the page numbers and the index at the end, but after this notebook, I'm just going to go back to the "regular" ones for a few reasons. The top two reasons for reverting is that the page layout (and separation) is just a waste for me and limits my flexibility; the second reason, which impacts any users of this notebook is the paper. The paper is different than all the other notebooks; it's smoother but it takes noticeably longer to absorb the ink so smearing tends to occur more than I would like (and I'm right handed). On a less important level, the inside cover has a design printed on it (I like to use the blank space to put quotes there).Overall, I'll finish it, but I won't get another one.

I purchased this notebook in July 2017. The notebook itself is perfectly fine, but it's also more expensive than a regular Moleskine notebook. That extra cost should have been offset by a valid code for 3 months of Evernote Premium, but since the code was expired before purchasing the notebook, there was no price offset.EDIT: I changed it to 5 stars, because after posting my review I decided I had nothing to lose by trying the code. It says it's expired, but it worked, and I did indeed get three months added to my Evernote Premium subscription.

This is the second time I've purchased a Moleskine Evernote notebook, and quite frankly, I liked the first one better. The page numbers are nice, but the paper is ridiculously thin. I write with a Pilot G-2 ball point pen, and the ink is see through on the opposite page. The first version of this notebook, the paper was so thick, I could use a sharpie and not see the ink on the opposite page. Had I realized the paper quality prior to marking up the first pages, I would be returning this notebook for a refund.

These planners are simply the gold standard. I have used them for years and will not go for another notebook. Moleskines last forever and are indestructible. The business book is ruled a little differently so make sure you like the layout before you buy. I love the free three months of Evernote Business that comes with the notebook. It ties nicely with the Evernote app.

I'll try not to go into too much details here:Pros:+ Comes with three months of Evernote Premium - itself 'worth' 12 quid, so in essence you're getting a reasonable package deal here for Evernote and a moleskine.+ Moleskine itself is of (expectedly) high quality, and I really enjoy the use of Evernote's (unusually strong) aesthetics.+ Pages split into 'public' and 'private' - can be ignored entirely but essentially gives you the option to only share the top part of a page (not having to manually crop it out yourself). Understandably good feature for business.+ Stickers work as advertised, and you can even change what they mean or do within the app - ie what to tag the page with and what notebook to assign to. Incredibly useful in that sense if you have multiple notebooks etc, although I admit I don't really use Evernote that much.+ Option to tick a box on each page to tag the entire page as a reminder.+ Green ribbon can be used to tell the document camera where the 'edge' of the page is - incredibly smart feature.+ Because you can tag pages etc, you don't really need to write pages one after the other. You can tag a 'work' page then a 'home' page and both will be seperated and strung together after being scanned.+ OCR is very accurate on handwriting, making it all searchable.Cons- Lines are far too small - I admit I bought this as a 'multi-purpose' notebook but the small size of the lines is effectively slowing down my writing speed so do not buy this book if you intend to write in prose (simply put).- The blank space between 'public' and 'private' can be ignored but it's still a PITA if you intend to use the entire page.- Document scanner is simply crap - I have used Evernote on iPad, Android (Note III) and Windows Phone 8 and for every one, I had to take multiple shots. The scanner did not straighten out the page, the ribbon had to be pulled taught (annoying) and either the camera would not crop at all, or would 'overcrop' the page for no good reason, even cutting out (and not recognising) the stickers I put at the top of the page. "Pain in the ass" does not come close.- Making this its own seperate con - despite this being 'specialised' with special Evernote lines, it did not straighten out the page so the writing itself looks warped in places. I may as well use a different app.- For a 'Business' notebook, it simply does not come with enough 'work' stickers.- Can only do one page at a time despite green divider, and good luck getting the camera to take the shot successfully the first time around.Next time, I think I'll try the normal large Evernote Moleskine to see if the results are better. That being said, since the OCR works on non-Evernote document scans anyway (ie just pure photos), I'm more tempted just to try an ordinary notebook next time, because it seems to work just as well, and you only need to take the photo once!

I use it as a normal notebook, even though the I have the pro version of the app it has never recognized the pages as advertised with the top part being public and bottom being private. Never bothered using the stickers so can't verify if the app detects those. It's a good quality notebook but pricey for just a notebook.

Ho usato per anni Moleskine sino a quando l'ho abbandonata stregato da quell'eccezionale strumento che è Evernote.Per cui quando ho visto che questi mondi si potevano integrare mi sono tuffato senza esitazione.In realtà, il riconoscimento con la fotocamera è molto meno efficace di quanto si vede nei promo (uso un Galaxy 7) e l'acquisto è valso solo per i 3 mesi di abbonamento Evernote (prontamente riconosciuti).Non credo la ricomprerò, basta un normale taccuino Moleskine. Forse andrebbe meglio con il formato più grande.Amazon impeccabile come sempre.

Excelente artículo, usualmente está en un precio que ronda los 700 pesos MX, por $400 es una ganga. El detalle estaba en que supuestamente el código para los 3 meses gratuitos de Evernote estaba caducado, en la libreta también venía la fecha en que había expirado, solo por curiosidad me fui a la página web introduje el código y resulta que fue válido. En cuanto a la entrega llegó antes de lo esperado gracias Amazon mx

Das Notizbuch ist toll. Die Seiten sind genug, dass man mit Stabilo reinschreiben kann, ohne dass es durchdruckt. Die Evernotefunktion ist in Theorie gut, aber ich benötige sie eigentlich nicht. Die Texterkennung auf den handgeschriebenen Seiten funktioniert bei mir aber ganz gut. Die Möglichkeit sie zu benutzen finde ich toll. Drei Monate Evernote Premium ist auch toll. Fazit: tolles Notizbuch, und tolle Spielerei.
