OneNote – It’s for Everyone

OneNote is one of the greatest unsung success stories ever to come out of Microsoft. It’s the ultimate place to store and share your information in a single, easy-to-access location.

Do you use it?

You should! This month we’ll tell you why you need this software, and get you started along a path you will be forever grateful you took.

Once you start using OneNote to its full potential, you won’t look back.

You have surely used Microsoft Word before. It’s excellent for creating documents. You can write a letter or a contract, and it is perfect for that.

OneNote takes that concept of being a first-class word processor, but it adds the ability to connect multiple sections and pages all together in one place. Instead of sending someone a series of five or six separate Word documents, you can send them one single notebook. Each of you can collaborate on a OneNote notebook in real time and even keep track of who made which changes.

OneNote is an amazingly powerful productivity tool which will allow you to work easier with others and improve your organizational skills.

We offer our popular 6-hour OneNote Complete classes publicly and privately, and our private sessions are available in either French or English.

• OneNote is essential to your productivity
• Work easier with others
• Improve your organizational and note taking skills
• Attend either a public or a private class
• Take your private session in your choice of either French or English

What Can OneNote Do?

OneNote provides a secure central hub for all your notes, which you can organize into separate notebooks. You can create as many notebooks as you like; make one for each topic, department or area of interest. Add sections to your notebooks and then then add pages for your notes.

OneNote has a very useful search function. You can search any or all of these notebooks, sections, and pages to locate any information you may need to find later.

Now the benefits begin. You can add drawings, sketches, tables, and much more. You can keep your meeting notes in there and share them with colleagues. You can collaborate in real time, keeping everything accessible in one place. You can even create and manage to-do lists, which you can sync with Outlook if you like.

You can use OneNote on any device and all major operating systems. There’s a OneNote app for Windows, iOS, or Android. You can use it on the go, at home, or at the office. As you make changes on OneNote in one place, all your synced devices will show those changes in real time.

How Can OneNote Make Your Job Easier?

OneNote really excels at allowing you to organize and collaborate in real time. You can see your team members’ ideas as they flow onto the page. You can securely store your information, access any revisions, and track changes. If someone makes a mistake, you can simply view past revisions and restore an older version of your notes. What a potential career saver!

With OneNote and a scanning app like Office Lens, you can scan handwritten notes and convert them to text, record audio and video into your notebook, share it all with your team, and all of you can access everything on the go.

There are many other benefits besides the ones we’ve briefly mentioned here. It really can be a life-changer.
