It allows my team to collaborate in real time, share information quickly, and keep everything well-structured. I also like that it syncs automatically across all devices. > > **Cons**: What I like least is that sometimes the synchronization can be a bit slow, especially with large notebooks. > > Overall, my experience has been very positive. It has helped improve organization and communication within my company. We use it to centralize information, meeting notes, and processes, which makes our workflow more efficient and organized. ----- ### "Flexible With Great Micosoft Integration" — 4.0/5 > **Junaid** | *13 September 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: OneNote makes it easy to organise notes, tasks, and ides in a digital notebook format. It integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365 apps like outlook and Teams. > > **Cons**: Search functionality is not always as powerful as it could be for large notebooks. Exporting and sharing options are limited compared to Evernote or Notion. > > Overall, OneNote is dependable toold for note taking and collaboration especially for users already in the Microsoft ecosystem. ----- ### "Un outil de prise de notes complet et pratique" — 4.0/5 > **Hercilin Novaldi** | *19 March 2026* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Microsoft OneNote est très pratique pour organiser ses notes de manière claire et structurée. J’apprécie particulièrement la possibilité de créer des carnets, sections et pages, ce qui facilite le classement des informations. La synchronisation entre les appareils est fluide, ce qui permet d’accéder à ses notes partout. L’intégration avec les autres outils Microsoft est également un vrai plus. > > **Cons**: L’interface peut parfois manquer de simplicité pour les nouveaux utilisateurs. Certaines fonctionnalités sont moins intuitives comparées à d’autres applications de prise de notes. Il arrive aussi que la synchronisation soit un peu lente ou présente des bugs, notamment avec des fichiers volumineux. > > Dans l’ensemble, mon expérience avec Microsoft OneNote est très positive. C’est un outil fiable et complet pour la prise de notes, que ce soit pour les études ou le travail. Malgré quelques points à améliorer, il reste une solution efficace et bien adaptée à un usage quotidien. ----- ### "Convenient note taking software." — 3.0/5 > **Mike** | *11 September 2025* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Microsoft OneNote integrates well with the rest of the Office 365 Suite so it is a good value for money. OneNote has good platform compatibility and is easy to share among the team. You can add attachment and photos to each note you type up and OneNote has great tablet support. I also like how file organization is managed within OneNote. > > **Cons**: It is sometimes hard or downright impossible to export to a format that will retain all the information. Pdf export sometimes have areas cropped off. It is very hard to use Microsoft's equation editor and unfortunately there is no Markdown / LaTeX support. > > Overall I use OneNote a lot given that it comes pre-installed with the office suite and has nice integration with OneDrive. However, it is not suited to use OneNote for software documentation. ----- ### "New filing system\!" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *4 January 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love when you use one note that it automatically saves the information you a writing. This feature alone has saved me multiple times. > > **Cons**: I didnt like how long it took me to get used to one note and how to sort it out, i found it very difficult to begin with and questioning why this is even a necessary tool. > > Once i was able to wrap my head around OneNote and to fully maximize the full functionality of the program, i haven't been able to go back to the days of not using it. There is no need for a filing system anymore as this is the digital version of that. It has allowed me to create a digital filing system of every client i have. I Love how organised it has made me feel. I highly recommend everyone give it a fair go. ----- Page: 1 / 80\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/397801/onenote?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/397801/onenote) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
