Making it not good for keeping ORGANIZED notes.

Much more useful than Evernote Guest • Jan 2017 • 10 agrees and 4 disagrees Disagree Agree I love Keep, but it's not anywhere near as detailed as OneNote. Keep is basically for making sticky notes, which is helpful, but OneNote has way more features. I know a lot of students, as well as myself, who use OneNote for taking school notes. You can draw, add tags to notes, and add formattings, such as fonts, colors, bullets, and number lists. You can even draw on top of things you type. You can't any of that in Google Keep. Guest • Nov 2017 • 7 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Keep is great for separate notes/lists/etc. kept one at a time - but nothing nested. OneNote allows sub folders which makes for more organizing capabilities. Also within a single page of OneNote you can have multiple "boxes" of text/pictures/etc. Guest • Dec 2017 • 1 agrees and 0 disagrees Disagree Agree Google Keep is lacking features such as tags, attachments, and Optical Character Recognition. drliu1202 • May 2018 Disagree Agree OneNote allows for multiple notebooks on different topics, which in turn consist of multiple pages, which can all be colour coded. GoogleKeep is the best app for making sticky notes, but it just doesn't compare. Guest • May 2018 Disagree Agree You can save simple notes to Google Keep but OneNote does a whole lot more. Guest • Aug 2016 • 7 agrees and 7 disagrees Disagree Agree

(Wacom etc.) Guest • May 2017 • 25 agrees and 4 disagrees Disagree Agree You can't embed images or clip from the web. Deal breaker. jhensley • Oct 2017 • 9 agrees and 4 disagrees Disagree Agree Simplenote is great for super simple plaintext notetaking but it only has one feature in common with OneNote which is syncing. Not an alternative Guest • Dec 2017 • 6 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree I tried it on my chromebook nad as a extension it does not allow to have more than one file, everything is in the same file. This may not be the case with another os but for the one I have this is not an alternative. That's not to say it is not good if that is what you're looking for, It does what it does well.
