Same here. The hindrance for me was the hierarchical folder structure which made it more cumbersome to transfer content to the desktop. This is why I switched to Nebulous Notes as my main note-taking app, so I can sync with a single Dropbox folder, from which I import them into ConnectedText.

I suggested early on to the developer to have the ability to compile the contents of the sub-folders and export them into a single document (Scrivener-style), which could have turned it into a serious writing tool for me. (Haven’t checked recently, so I don’t know if it’s been implemented.)

Agreed. The web version is great to have. I notice that the Outline Pro people conveniently left that bit out from their unfavourable comparison:
