i was so glad my new job uses google products, but the one thing they are missing is a counterpart to onenote. Keep ain't it.
Obsidian is my answer to it.
looks cool but unfortunately we can only use approved apps which are mostly within the google ecosystem.
I went from a small business that was entirely G Suite to a mega corp that was entirely Microsoft. Company culture wise the mega corp is soooo much better, technology wise....I felt totally limited and like I had gone back in time.
I went from being able to pull up a Google sheet on my phone to live update decision makers both back in the office and people who were remote, to having to jump through hoops to open an Excel sheet, then request editing rights, then having to submit the edited sheet to my supervisor only for her to have a manager review and approve the edit, and then he'd have to attach the edited version to an all hands email and tell everyone to download and use the new one.
It's gotten better since I started, we now upload everything to OneDrive, but they can't seem to get the permissions right and every once in a while someone edits a file and someone has to comb though the edit history to restore it.
