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. ----- ### "Great Flexible Organiser" — 5.0/5 > **Chelsea** | *12 June 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Onenote is a great space to organise notes in sections and pages. It has the option to add images or checklists. Perfect for organising notes and syncs across all platforms. > > **Cons**: Formatting is a little clunkier than other applications, which can be tricky to get your head around. > > Onenote is really helpful and can be a great way to organise and keep on top of notes, planning or just brainstorming.

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.

It is very easy to use but allows everyone to find different tools to make their notes work for them. > > **Cons**: I would like it to have more tagging features to allow me to search for notes falling in certain subjects that I need to find quickly. Although the search tool is very powerful to use. > > I have used one note for several years after giving up the paper notebook and it's been great. I think the software is well worth the money and I have not needed customer support due to the fact of it's ease of learning. ----- Page: 1 / 80\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/397801/onenote?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/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
