How to Use and Benefit From Microsoft OneNote

OneNote: Microsoft’s Online Digital Notebook

If you’re someone who loves making lists and staying organized, Microsoft’s OneNote could be the perfect program for you. Ahead, we’ll look at how to use OneNote in your business or personal life —and what benefits you can expect when you take advantage of this program.

First thing’s first: What is Microsoft OneNote?

A good way to think of Microsoft OneNote is like the three-ring binder you used in high school. OneNote is an organizational tool for all the notes, pictures, graphs, charts, lists, and other media you need to stay organized. With OneNote, you can type notes, dictate audio notes, add pictures or graphics, add links to other types of document, and more.

How Do You Use Microsoft OneNote?

Let’s go back to the spiral notebook analogy. Like a notebook with divider tabs that separate different sections of notes, OneNote also has different sections. Within each section, you also have pages (just as in a notebook with actual pages of paper). On each individual page is where you would actually type, dictate, or insert information that you want to record. Of course, both sections and pages can be labeled as you choose. It’s up to you how you want to organize your notes and data.

What Are the Benefits of Using OneNote?

One of the greatest benefits of OneNote is the ability to access the program from anywhere. Your OneNote data will sync to whatever devices you are using. You can use the OneNote app on your tablet device and smartphone, and you can use the program app on your desktop or laptop computer. As long as you have an Internet connection and the program, you can use OneNote and keep all of your changes synced to all your devices.

OneNote also allows you to collaborate easily with others. You can give team members access to your OneNote sections and pages and allow them to make their own notes or changes. Again, these will all be synced so that your entire team can stay up-to-date on your project in real-time.
