Excel cells can be a pain to manipulate while OneNote lets you manipulate text anyway you want. Not to mention, it lets you embed pictures and videos, and that feature where it automatically cites everything you grab from the internet. For me, before I used OneNote, if I were doing a big information grab from a lot of sites, I would copy and paste paragraphs here and there. Often, I would forget the citation, which created a nightmare later when I went back to cite sources. Even if I didn't forget the citation, I had to copy and paste from the site twice - one for the actual information, and then again to grab the URL. It's little things like that - cutting the work of citing webpages in half -- that makes OneNote one handy little note taking program. As for it's advantages over Excel, I think another advantage is the internal search. If you took a lot of notes on say, alfredo sauce, and then wanted to find them all, in Excel it would take you to each instance one by one until you find the one you want. In OneNote, when you do a search, it makes you a little handy list of each appearance, meaning you don't have to scroll through each appearance of your keyword, "alfredo sauce," before finding the one you want. Once again, it's no huge difference, but it is a small time saver that really adds up. It’s way better! Excel cells can be a pain to manipulate while OneNote lets you manipulate text anyway you want.
