Note taking and personal organizer software from MS Office.

OneNote is the official Microsoft application for taking notes and synchronizing them with all your devices with quick and easy access from your PC, phone or tablet. Its operation is quite similar to other similar tools within the MS Office suite like MS Word.

One of OneNote's strong points is that through your Outlook, Hotmail or Live account, you can synchronize all the notes and save them in the cloud. Your corresponding Android or iOS device should also be logged in in order to take access your notes from your phone.

You can create any number of notebooks in this program where you can divide them into sections. OneNote offers you a lot of freedom when taking notes: You are not tied to a grid and you can place your notes virtually anywhere as well as draw on top of them.

With OneDrive, you can give other people access to your notes and from there collect ideas together. It offers you a number of options for tracking changes or restoring old versions.

When it's installed on Windows, it integrates with Windows with a floating tab for quick access. Creating notes is quick and simple and with the WYSIWYG interface, completely flexible.

In conclusion, Microsoft OneNote is a great tool for keeping organized with its simple and familiar interface. Anybody with experience using Microsoft Office should not have many issues getting around this program.
