Note that there are two versions of OneNote for Windows: a desktop app and a Windows 10 app, also known as a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app. I spend more time on the Windows version of each, but I’ll note similarities and differences in other versions as well. This isn't a deep-dive review, but rather a personal look at what I like and don't much like about each - and the main points of difference between the two. I'm a longtime user of both applications, so I've taken a look at the latest version of each for Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone and Android. But they also have some very distinct differences. OneNote and Evernote are available for all the major desktop and mobile OSes, they can each sync your notes to all of your devices and the web, and both promise to be the only note-taking app you need. (Microsoft hasn’t released user numbers for OneNote, but between Office and Windows 10, more than a billion users likely have a version of it installed on their machines.) Evernote launched in 2008 and has enjoyed steadily increasing user numbers since then the company now says it has 225 million users worldwide. Launched in 2003, OneNote was added to Microsoft Office in 2007 and is now bundled with Windows 10 and also offered for free as a standalone product. But it’s available everywhere for free: Windows phones, iPads and iPhones, Android, the web, whatever.There are two leading contenders for the crown: Microsoft’s OneNote and the independent Evernote. You can get the full desktop application-Outlook 2016-or a lighter mobile app version for Windows desktop. You don’t need to “own” Office or subscribe to Office 365. You likely already have such an account, but you can just as easily create a new one for free.” You can choose any Microsoft Account to use with OneNote, no matter if it’s a personal Hotmail,, or account, or a Microsoft Account given to you by your work or your school. “The OneNote Importer finds any Evernote content on your computer and sends it to OneNote. Oddly enough, you don’t need OneNote installed to use it, however: It will import your notes to the cloud.Ī support page provides more information. Or at least have exported your Evernote file in. Meaning, you’ll need to have Evernote installed on your PC and sync before you can use OneNote Importer. It’s a simple wizard-based application that looks for your local Evernote data rather than connect to the cloud. The OneNote Importer is available from the Microsoft web site. Apparently, it just shipped today for the first time. I was tipped off to this neat and necessary utility by Mary Jo Foley. Not sure why this took so long, but Microsoft now has a OneNote Importer utility that will import your Evernote-based notes into the software giant’s completely free Office-based solution.
