Digital note-taking is the way of the future. While there¡¯s nothing wrong with pen and paper notes, no
one can deny that going digital comes with many benefits, such as the ability to access your notes
anywhere you go and the ease of making reliable backups.
Want to get started? Then your first stop should be our guide to taking great digital notes. A few
simple tips and tricks can be all it takes to boost your note-taking skills to the next level. But digital
notes have to be taken down in something, and for most people, that means deciding between
Evernote and Microsoft OneNote.
Both are certainly great, but which one is better for you? Only you can answer that as the answer
depends on the person. We hope this comparison article will help you make the best, most informed
decision that you can.
To be clear, we¡¯re comparing the Windows desktop versions of each program. We do
mention cross-platform availability near the end, but just so you know, in-depth reviews of
the non-Windows versions are beyond the scope of this article.

User Interface
User interfaces are a tricky topic. They¡¯re important, but they aren¡¯t everything. A great interface isn¡¯t
enough to save a poor app, yet at the same time, a poor interface will easily turn me away from an
otherwise feature-packed program.
And when it comes to digital note-taking, user interfaces are arguably more important than in other
applications. If the interface doesn¡¯t feel comfortable to you, you¡¯re going to spend more time
wrestling with the program than actually taking notes.
People have different ideas as to what constitutes a great interface ¡ª yes, it¡¯s mostly subjective ¡ª so
I¡¯ll just highlight the core differences between these two and let you make your own judgments.
Evernote
Evernote uses a three-column design that makes it easy and fast to switch between many different
notes and notebooks when necessary. If you shrink the window¡¯s width to less than 840 pixels, the
sidebar disappears and the interface becomes a two-column design with more breathing space.
!
You can also go into the options and switch to a layout that splits the notebook and notes horizontally,
but I don¡¯t really see any benefits to this mode. Of course, you can always disable the note panel
altogether and access notes by double-clicking in the notebook.
Overall, I like that Evernote¡¯s layout is as flexible enough to accommodate nearly everyone¡¯s tastes.
The amount of whitespace is perfect, though the lack of colors can be hard on the eyes.
