– Import basically anything from Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and other Office products
– Print To OneNote functionality. Instead of printing to a printer, save the printout in OneNote instead (online receipts, etc.)
– Automatically saves and displays the source of imported web content such as pictures and text.
– Touchscreen support for capacitive screens ie. Pen/ink support via for finger or stylus. Support for digitizer screens too :-)
– Syncs across devices
– Apps available for IOS, Android, WP8
– Notes, Folders, and Notebooks are sharable with others

I use this on my Surface Pro. Combined with the touchscreen and digitizer pen, it’s simply awesome. I couldn’t ask for a better way to organize everything.
