Overall Satisfaction with OneNote
OneNote is available to all users in my organization. It's not something anyone is required to use. It's available as a tool and my team has adopted it as our primary means of documentation.
- One of the best things about OneNote is the ability to quickly enter data of many types without much effort. There are many different types of intake methods from browser extensions to mobile devices and of course the traditional desktop.
- I find it very comforting that I can quickly record information about something then go back and easily reformat it.
- As a team we share a single OneNote so it makes updating or sharing info very simple.
- Users can manage multiple personal OneNotes along with the one we share as a team.
- Maybe a little better integration with native spreadsheets. Currently it appears to force your spreadsheet info into a choice of several predefined formats.
- Page updating for our International users is definitely slow at times.
- Documentation is difficult for our team because we are always too busy to take time to do it. OneNote has made that much easier because we can quickly write notes down then rework them into something other members can reference.
- SharePoint and Atlassian Confluence
Infinitely quicker and simpler to create documentation. Perhaps not for use when wanting to export that to other teams but for my team, sharing amongst ourselves works very well.
