      But do you not see the value in sorting the content based on the implemented solution as well?

      That's what the category is for.

        They can be, but using namespaces means you have to add custom entries (something I'm sure you're not afraid to do) but still extra work.

        Categories are much easier to make, and do allow you to focus in on a specific subject matter. Namespaces are strictly for Andy's Flap Jacks.

        So while this might be a worthwhile effort, I think it would be a lot to maintain...

            ...And we've already abandoned MediaWiki for DokuWiki for page security reasons. 😛

                  I appear to have full access OneNote from my browser in my $5-6/m/u account.

                      Yeah, but we can't access that. It's $20 for us. That's just the price, can't get around it.

                        If you're really planning on dropping all the way to the $4/u/m exchange only plan, then you can probably move to the $5/month plan (you have less than 250 users, right? and get what I have today.

                          MSP, doesn't work that way. We need our E3 plans. Seriously, we don't have any option for the $5 stuff.

                            If we were a normal company that could use the $5 plans, we'd already be on them and using that. But even when we had OneNote, we were not too impressed with it. It was just "good enough." Now we are looking for something actually good.

                                See, that's a whole different story then. But pricing was the original reason given for moving away from it.. not the desire to find a better solution.

                                  Right, but as I explained we can't get the $5 pricing.

                                    That we can't get the $5 plan. So we can't have OneNote and SharePoint without paying the $16 premium per user. We are going in circles. I'm back to explaining the original price post.
