I really want to like this but...
I was hoping this would be what I was looking for - a way of keeping my OneNote notebooks when I migrated back to a Mac.
It’s close.
It looks very nice, and I was able to open the notebooks stored locally on my Mac. But here’s what it does badly:
1. It is incredibly buggy.
- About 20% of the time, I lose all of my recently notes I added after closing a notebook
- It adds or deletes characters, or the cursor winds up out of register with the point it’s actually adding characters
- When I have multiple text boxes, clicking on one of them will often put the cursor in a different box
- It has been crashing lately, requiring a forced quit.
2. The features really aren’t there yet
- I can no longer access any of my shared team notebooks that reside on a server
- There is no way to add tables that I have seen
- The user manual is either terrible (extremely basic) or hidden.
- There sidebar takes up about 25 % of the screen, with no way to minimize it.
I will keep using this until the next update to give it a chance, but if it doesn’t improve soon, I will bite the bullet and re-type all of my notes into Evernote or something similar.
