Is there an online list of pro features which become unavailable after the six month period? I wouldn't like to be stuck with a program whose core functionalities are seriously impaired after I'd got used to the program.

Adam, go to their website, click on Support > FAQ. This is the first question:
How is the Limited version different than the Pro version?
Effie offers a trial version, and you can download it from here. The Limited version is for personal use only, and you can’t use it for business purposes.
> With the Pro version, you have full access to the following features:
>
> * Publish your work to WordPress directly from within the software.
> * Remove the Limited Version symbol
> * Hide the Effie intro folder
> * Choose whether to display your name and avatar as the author when sharing or exporting
> * Customize the footer of an exported sheet
> * Change estimated reading speed
> * Hide the Markup insight panel when type "/"
> * Choose not to pair brackets and quotes
>
> To ensure a more comprehensive user experience and reliable long-term use, we highly recommend that you upgrade to the Pro version.
>
> We look forward to having you onboard.

Hi Mukund Chiplunkar, would you please first make sure that there's no space at the very beginning of the field?
If the problem remains, would you please reach out to our support so we can better help?
Kind regards,

Does it support RTL (Right to Left) languages?

Hi Ezevel, thanks for your comment.
Unfortunately, this is currently not supported in Effie.

From the screenshots and video its only advantage over MS OneNote is one click transformation between text and diagram presentation. But for diagrams being useful these are way too simplistic and lacking necessary functionalities.
Save | Cancel
Hi SK, thanks for your comment.
Given that Effie is still very new and young (only released less than 2 months ago), we do admit that there is still a lot for us to catch up with moving forward.
But Effie and OneNote are actually helping people in different ways. The mind map feature in Effie, different from the diagram presentation you mentioned, is there to help you better visualize your thoughts when writing, so you don't have to jump over to a different program to get it done, which can seriously impair the writing and thinking flow.
So there's no denying that Effie meets the needs of those who care more about what they have to write, instead of how good the format looks at a glance. This is why Effie creates a well-designed, clean, minimal writing environment where you can just write and write some more, where you can basically do all the creating even without having to lift your fingers away from the keyboard.

After 6 months, what will happen to my notes? What limitations will apply? So much uncertainty to commit using it!
Save | Cancel
King Kong, Hi there, this is Sophie, and I work for Effie.
To answer your questions:
1. After 6 months, all your data and notes will still be in Effie, so nothing will be changed on that front.
2. The only limitation is that you won't be able to use the Pro features, like changing the footer for the exported sheets, as mentioned in the description.
We hope the above helps to clarify things, but if not, please feel free to reach out to us and we'll be happy to help further.
Kind regards,

Sophie,
Below are uncertainties after 6 months;
1.. Effie will still be functional?
2.. Can notes be password-protected, and still be accessible?
3.. Nimbus Note set 100MB monthly. What're the space and data usage limitations?
4.. I haven't checked, would appreciate if there're apps for ANDROID and IOS.
5.. Can we edit/sync notes on phones and browsers including Chrome, Opera, etc?

Hi King Kong,
Thanks for your follow-up reply.
To answer your questions:
1. Yes.
2. We haven't had such a feature, but if and when we do have it, we won't make password-protected sheets only accessible when you have the Pro version, since it's unethical to do so.
3. We don't have such a limit.
4. Yes, we do have Effie for iOS, and as mentioned in the description above, Effie for Android will be released soon.
Moreover, we have Effie for Mac, so if you're using both Windows and Mac, Effie can work almost seamlessly for you on your devices.
5. No.
This is because Effie is developed with pure native codes optimized for each device, so as to ensure the best user experience.
Browser-based programs don't usually guarantee this due to slow response time, lagging, and unstable network connections that can easily ruin your writing flow. There are too many factors that can cause mishaps, and we want only the best for you. To make sure that you have the most satisfying experience when using Effie, no matter what device you're using, better integration with the targeted OS platform is a must.
So even though we realize that using pure native codes takes longer to develop and costs more, we still choose the road less traveled to ensure that Effie is doing what it's designed to do, i.e. make ideas happen.
Please feel free to let us know if you have any other questions.
Kind regards,

Sophie,
regarding to: System Requirements:
Windows 7/ 8/ 10/ 11 (x32/x64), English interface only
In case that I'm from Poland and have Polish interface, is there any solution for me ?
Save | Cancel
Hi Paweł, thanks for your review.
I'm sorry, but Effie is still very new, so the Polish interface is not yet an option.
That said, if you're willing to help us with the Polish interface, maybe we can release this language interface sooner than you think? :-D
If you're willing to help, please feel free to reach out.
Kind regards,

Sophie, I don't think I'm able to help because I'm not educated in this area.

Paweł, don't worry, no harm done. :)

I think he asked about system requirements. How specific operating system language can be a requirement? A program has its own interface language.
