"Where Have You Been All My Life,OneNote??"
This is the greatest thing EVER!! How is it that a veteran software hound and compulsive organizer just found out about OneNote? Now that I've found it, I can not live without it. This software is so easy to use and the designers have thought of everything and provided a way to collect and store any type of information.

Not only do I use this for my varied sewing and craft projects at home, I have procured copies for myself and all my staff at work. We are collaboratively working on an Operations Manual for our division, and we're all quite excited to be putting what we know and have previously documented into the same place with new documentation. It is actually making an otherwise onerous and overwhelming task a great deal of fun.

Get this, you'll find so many ways to use it.

"Great Product from Microsoft?"
OneNote is a product that my wife and I love. I was looking for a software product flexible enough to allow me to implement David Allen's Getting Things Done (GTD) system the way I wanted to, and as a result I looked at and tested many, MANY software products. At first I fought trying OneNote because I don't like Microsoft, but I finally gave in to a trial. Since then I have found OneNote and Outlook to be the perfect GTD system for me. I have never traditionally been an organized person, but now my life is in order more than it ever has been. I LOVE how OneNote integrates with Outlook tasks. Aside from organizing my life, OneNote also organizes virtually ANY information I wish to store. My wife uses OneNote for EVERYTHING from her project management job to her personal life to lists to everything. She's an organization freak and she is in love with OneNote. Great product!

"Significant improvement over 2003 version."
It takes a little practice to get OneNote conformed to your style. This version has much better integration to and from MS Outlook. Taking notes on a page derived from a meeting invite is a breeze. Adding tasks in OneNote with link to outlook is simple. Just a better overall experience. Note: it also indexes text in PDF documents! I wish I had this version when working on my MBA.

"OneNote 2007 a winner!"
I purchased Microsoft OneNote 2007 as an upgrade to OneNote 2003. The install went smooth. All my OneNote 2003 notes were imported into OneNote 2007 correctly. While I have not tried all the new features in OneNote 2007, the ones I have tried worked as expected. OneNote is a great tool for keeping notes. I use it keep notes on Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator, Photography, etc. techniques I find in books, magazines, etc. This have made finding a technique to use for a particular application much easier. I believe OneNote 2007 has earned a 5 star rating from me.

"Great Software BUT..."
I had issues installing this on Vista. More clearly, it didn't install on Vista. It installs fine on XP. The interface compared to the 2003 version feels smoother. For what I use it for, 2003 would have been fine for me. Greatest feature to me is the ability to print it into a document, so you could print it out at another computer without Onenote installed. Like on some campuses.
