![]() SEE: How to migrate to a new iPad, iPhone, or Mac (TechRepublic Premium) Note-taking is among the leading ways professionals collect information, whether the corresponding data is gathered during an in-person conference or Teams meeting, from a webinar or podcast or thanks to a presentation or vendor’s website. The sooner discoveries, ideas, strategic thoughts, sales data, industry statistics, product updates and other news can be captured and even shared with colleagues, the quicker the organization and its representatives can put that information to work. Consequently, taking notes has become a critical daily activity. Contemporary professionals, instead, require tools capable of providing utility quickly, just as workers must shift attention rapidly between tasks while managing increasingly frenetic schedules.

OneNote enjoys smooth integration with other Microsoft 365 apps, but Apple Notes provides a clean and reliable alternative for Apple users who need to capture and share business notes. Microsoft OneNote: Which is best for business? If you're invested in the ever-growing constellation of Microsoft cloud services, or if you use a Microsoft-heavy workflow at work or school, OneNote is certainly worth exploring - especially for the price.Apple Notes vs. OneNote is a good start as a Mac app from Microsoft. To that end, Evernote has a better fleshed-out ecosystem of apps, accessories and tools to help you get the most out of it. The 800 pound gorilla of the note taking app market is Evernote. It's weird to think of Microsoft as underdog, but they really are when it comes to this kind of app. As in all things, your mileage may vary in this regard. ![]() I don't have any experience with the Windows version of OneNote, but I've read numerous complaints from users of both versions that suggest the Mac version comes up a bit short, especially in areas like saving text formatting options, document and file importing and attachment and more. You can share notes with users outside your workflow by embedding the note in an email or by sending links Microsoft offers the option of a read-only link or an editable link as well. Late last year, Microsoft added the ability to open notebooks stored on SharePoint Servers, as well. You can embed PDFs after a fashion, as "printouts" that can then be annotated. Unlike Evernote, OneNote doesn't have any easy way of embedding web pages into your notes, which makes it a less-than-ideal tool for collecting info off the web for later collation and digestion. It's no replacement for Excel, but it's good enough to get some basic tabulation work done if you need to.

You can create subpages and sub-sections, reorganizing your notes however you'd like.
