Overall Satisfaction with Google Keep

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use keep on my computer.
I leave keep always open in a tab on the browser.

I do use keep to keep my notes regarding the coding that I did on the day.
When I run script commands I keep the list of commands ran on the day as I tend to forget the parameters that I have used.
These are temporal notes that I take to later add them to proper code documentation.

Personally, I also use keep as a shopping list.

Pros and Cons

Pros

It is multi-platform. Works in the browser, in the tablet and my phone.
Easy to create new notes.
It creates itemized checkboxes.

Cons

When used in the tablet, it does not open in full screen.
Sometimes I am not sure if my notes were saved, so I close the window and re-open it.

Return on Investment

I do not use it for business objectives that could be related to ROI.

Usability

Usability is great. It is simple, compact, straightforward, and easy to use. Functional multi-platform.

Alternatives Considered

Evernote, OneNote and DataNote

It is lighter than Evernote and OneNote. It is also faster and easier to use I like that it is multiplatform and the functionality is the same.
