Evernote vs onenote8/27/2023 ![]() The two exceptions would be if you use a Mac as your primary computer or if you find Office too pricey. I would highly recommend using OneNote over Evernote. But if you’re collaborating with someone using a Mac, they can access OneNote notebooks via the Skydrive. One downside: OneNote does not have a Mac application. If you want to export an entire notebook at once you can save it as a PDF. I’m not sure how one exports data in Evernote, but in OneNote you can save any page or section as a Word document, PDF, or even in HTML. So if you’ve already invested in Office, OneNote could be the less expensive route.ħ. ![]() OneNote comes with the base package of Office 2010, and you get 25 GB of free storage on the Windows SkyDrive (rather than Evernote’s 1 GB per month). Microsoft has produced an iPhone/iPod Touch app. With 2010 you can access OneNote on a PC (though not a Mac), iPhone/iPad, or on the Web. OneNote is also recognized by the search built into PCs, so if you’re searching your PC for something, OneNote sections will be included in the results.Ĥ. It can even search by author if you’re using a shared notebook. OneNote does a superb job with its own built-in search capabilities. (This includes text that “bends” with pages or text in other orientations than horizontal e.g., it would recognize the text on the spines of book, if you snapped a picture of your bookshelf.) You can also copy text from images and paste it.ģ. All images in OneNote with text are indexed and searchable. OneNote converts handwriting into text with a high degree of accuracy.Ģ. ![]() I can also link to files outside OneNote (e.g., to a book I have in PDF form) or to Logos resources.Īlmost everything that the Evernote folks are saying they like about Evernote is already a feature in OneNote:ġ. This makes for easy cross referencing of notes. I can link to any page or paragraph within OneNote. Or you can easily e-mail pages from OneNote or the OneNote app.Ĩ. The person you are sharing with does not have OneNote, they can access the notebook via the Skydrive. Notebooks can also be shared via the cloud using the Skydrive. My wife and I shared a wedding planning notebook via Dropbox. My work OneNote notebook is shared with my coworkers via our network. Any research I do or notes I take about the chapter can take place on the OneNote page.ħ. I can open and work on the document right from OneNote. So when I receive a chapter to edit at work, I’ll drag the Word doc into OneNote. So if you have a Word document or a PDF or an Excel file relevant to what you are doing, you can drag and drop them right onto the relevant OneNote page. OneNote allows you to copy files right on to OneNote pages. OneNote has superior table creation abilities.Ħ. In Evernote I’d have one very long page full of notes, and it would be hard to see what my sources were.Ĥ. Each book or article receives a “column,” and I can scroll horizontally to see the sources that I’ve consulted. My research is going into my ST notebook, in the Revelation/Bibliology section on a natural law page. For instance, I’m doing research on natural law right now. It also allows for greater flexibility in note taking. This means that you can easily do mind maps. OneNote allows you to write/type/draw/insert pictures or screen clips anywhere on its canvas. You can even collapse and expand any indented paragraph below headings for ease of navigating through lengthy notes.ģ. OneNote allows for superior organization on the page itself. OneNote has superior organization with its Notebook, Section, Page, Subpage setup.Ģ. OneNote has features that Evernote does not have:ġ. I was continually trying to do things in Evernote that I can do in OneNote and finding it did not have the functionality. I’ve tried Evernote at various times, and I agree with Brandon Carmichael above that Evernote is not as flexible OneNote. ![]() I’ve used OneNote extensively since the 2003 version, and I’m currently using the 2010 version.
