Microsoft OneNote
is a Non-linear form of Microsoft word. A virtual file storage device to
organize your data. You can draw anywhere, you can organize whatever is you
have in different notebooks, you can basically draw anywhere. Create tabs
to categorize your notes, catalog recipes, organize note and it synchronizes
your data across different platforms. OneDrive is the main application where
all your Microsoft applications reside. For example, say you are working on
configuring a network device and all your configuration files are in OneNote
application, if your laptop suddenly loses power or shuts down, you can go to
Onenote in Office 365 and access your data from a mobile device, from an iOS or
Android device. At work, we use OneNote to keep our daily tasks up to date and
see what team is assigned tasks related to a project. One of my favorite
features is tapping the OneNote badge and take a note anytime without opening
the App. Whether is pictures, ideas, and clips. In addition, it lets you draw
over other apps, but you will need permission to do so. OneNote is part of the
Office365 bundle, and it integrates with Teams App. Teams App is used for our
secure intranet chat and exchange files which are the link to OneNote. Teams
app allows you to upload pictures and option to react with a like, love, thumbs
up, surprised or dislike emoji, as well edit your chat or delete it; these are
basic and few reactions yet it is effective for professional communication.
With the OneNote Web clipper, you can capture any webpage, and edit, annotate
or share with your colleagues. For example, when there are bugs in a program or
new features from other applications that we use, we can clip only the article,
or product information, from here you can add text, direct it where you like to
save it to and bookmark it as well. You will have to download the web browser
extension but is totally worth it. Another cool feature from the mobile is the
sticky note feature which I use religiously, it allows me to take pictures,
change fonts, bullet points and share them. To reorder tabs, you can drag and
drop and change the color of them also. When copying a text, just like Word, it
gives you the option to keep Source Formatting, Match Formatting, or simply
Keep Text Only. I mainly use this App for all of our Infrastructure Team Notes,
which includes several tabs, for example, Meeting notes, Site Information (for
Hospital and clinics throughout our County), Group Policy, Projects, Data
Centers, Purchasing, Processes, Active Directory, Rack layout and much more
useful information readily available in my mobile device. The three
recommendations for improvements are, to password protect notes within your
mobile app, the second is to see tabs like in the desktop application, and the
third is to be able to have navigation options from the ribbon, for example,
the Home, Insert, Draw and View ribbons. The mobile app is limited what you can
do compare to the desktop app, yet all the work you do in the Desktop App syncs
with your mobile app, including pictures, PDF, Excel files and Video.
