Evernote Evernote is a cross-platform, freemium app designed for note taking, organizing, and archiving. The app allows users to create a "note" which can be a piece... It is far and away lacking many features of onenote, most noticeably the ability to have sections and subsections of notes in binders. Making it not good for keeping ORGANIZED notes. Guest • Oct 2016 • 44 agrees and 15 disagrees Disagree Agree Evernote can't be used to draw with the stylus Guest • Jun 2016 • 31 agrees and 10 disagrees Disagree Agree It doesn't allow nearly as much editing options, the organization is crappy, it's overly simplified whereas OneNote is feature-rich and almost perfect, it's just such an ugly interface...

Google Keep Google Keep has several features including color coding notes, inserting images, creating lists, geo-fencing, shareable notes, and search by color. I can't write like a pencil and in several spaces in the screen Guest • Dec 2015 • 16 agrees and 6 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 • 10 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree Onenote allows hierarchy of notebooks, folders, notes. Much more useful than Evernote Guest • Jan 2017 • 12 agrees and 4 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.

Zim Zim brings the concept of a wiki to your desktop. Store information, link pages and edit with WYSISYG markup or directly typing some lightweight markup syntax and see it... Wonderful.

Guest • Feb 2018 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees Disagree Agree It's better because It saves your notes in your system not in cloud, plus it also have a great to-do system. easy to use satsaeid • 15 days ago Disagree Agree Small, light, well-features and easy to use but I only use it for short notes.

Simplenote Made by the company behind WordPress , Simplenote is an easy way to keep notes, lists, ideas, and more. Your notes stay updated across all your devices. It doesnt feature writing with a pen on screen. (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 • 11 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 • 7 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.
