### "Useful piece of software for students and workers" — 4.0/5

> **niamh** | *9 March 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a great product and it's like using a digital white board. I can use it for note taking, drawing diagrams and syncing across platforms.  I can share notebooks, search for work within them and integrate AI products.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes can be slow to sync across devices and performance can be slow with large files. Sometimes has printing issues
> 
> Overall very helpful software and you get used to the interface with continued use and practice. It is more beneficial to have my notes stored here and add  new notes rather than keeping everything in handwritten notebooks.
