Pro
Overall very useful
It takes all of your tabs (choose between all/all-except-current/current/all-to-right/all-to-left) and turns them into links in a special OneTab tab where you can further manage your tabs by dividing them into groups, removing duplicates and securing them so that they can't be removed unless unsecured.
See More
Top
Con
Can get messy
The OneTab tab has everything in a list format with just simple headings describing what you have in this or that list. It isn't comfortable to manage it when you have quite a lot of tabs in there.
See More
Top
Pro
You can organize links by dragging and dropping them
You can drag and drop links/tabs to reorder them by relevance, or to move them from one list to another.
See More
Top
Con
Slightly confusing UX
It's easy to forget that clicking on the OneTab button in the extensions bar doesn't show you options – it saves your current session by closing all your tabs in the given browser window. That might be slightly annoying if you were trying to access the OneTab dashboard or view OneTab options instead of trying to save your current session in OneTab, but this is only a minor inconvenience given how easy it is to restore your session.
See More
Top
Pro
Non-invasive
The OneTab dashboard only appears the first time you open your browser after quitting, although you can also make it appear through the extension button in the extensions bar. This is less invasive behavior than the Chrome extensions that appear every time you open a new browser tab.
See More
Top
Con
Clicking on a tab/link to re-open it automatically deletes it from a session
This is not so much a con as much as it is a heads up for those who use OneTab as a form of transient digital bookmarking (like me!). When you click on a tab/link in any given OneTab session, that will cause it to disappear from the list of tabs in that section. It would be nice if there was an interim period or separate place where the link is still visible/accessible. That or it would be nice to have a version history of past closed tabs/links and sessions.
See More
Top
Pro
Provides just enough information
OneTab provides just the right amount of meta-info about the tabs you've saved. It groups them by session, and tells you how many tabs are in each session, as well as the date the session was created. Every saved tab includes the bookmarked favicon and page title.
See More
Top
Con
Data loss
When you run ccleaner or CleanMyMac, all OneTab data may vanish.
See More
Top
Pro
Management & sharing of saved sessions
OneTab makes it very easy to restore, delete, share, lock, rename, and favorite your saved tab sessions. OneTab also makes it easy to share, export and import URLs into your OneTab dashboard as a whole.

Easy to use
1-step to take a note on Android: tap 'take a note'. Web version: cursor is on the note itself.

Top
Con
Google can access and mine your data
You have to be okay with Google analyzing and using your data in order to use Keep.
See More
Top
Pro
Super fast to use
The focus on a minimal interface makes everything fast to use on both web and mobile. This comes in handy for when a note needs to be jotted down quickly, as there is little to no load times or faffing about trying to get to a space where the note can finally be recorded.
See More
Top
Con
Messy if you have lots of notes
It can be difficult to organize notes because you can only create labels and not, for example, separate projects.
See More
Top
Pro
Unlimited and seamless sync across all Google connected devices, from mobile to desktop
When a mobile device isn't in use, Google Keep can be accessed as a Chrome app or as a website. Basically, no matter the device being used or the OS on it, there is always a way to access the app. There is also no limitation to how many devices this can be done with, freeing up the user to always have access.
See More
Top
Con
Organization is limited to just multiple tags for notes
There are no folders in Keep that you can move notes into. It makes the user interface more cluttered, and navigation gets more difficult.
See More
Top
Pro
Automatic saving
Automatically saves new changes so that nothing is lost.
See More
Top
Con
Can be taken down some day
As Google is notorious for taking down services, you may end up with just a backup of your notes in XML format and a need to look for a substitute.
See More
Top
Pro
Useful Android home screen widget
The Keep widget lets users quickly see existing notes and add new ones.
See More
Top
Con
No ability to undo changes
There is no way to revert changes or restore text you may have accidentally deleted (however, you can restore entire notes for up to 7 days after deletion).
See More
Top
Pro
Notes can be grouped via labels
In addition to the ability to color-code notes, they can be labeled and navigated and grouped that way. This allows for easy organization, to then be found easily at a later date.
See More
Top
Con
Synchronization bugs
There are some issues with synchronizing data including laggyness and returning old/deleted items.

Pro

See More
Top
Con
No text formatting
No basic formatting like bold, italics. Makes it harder to do things like meeting notes. Keep is intended as a minimal and quick note taking app, but sadly for those that are looking for something more robust, the features are just not there.
See More
Top
Pro
Cross platform
This app can be used seamlessly across all platforms including Android, iOS, and desktop computer platforms.
See More
Top
Con
Scrolling through notes is horrible
There are no options to decrease the surface area of the notes to make it easier to get an overview. Compare this to something like the Apple Notes or Evernote UI, for example. You can't organize nor have a glance of what you have.
See More
Top
Pro
Works as a great bookmarking tool as links added can optionally include a preview image
Keep has a great feature that allows you to save sites you visit as a special note type with a link and a preview image.
See More
Top
Con
Not free/libre
This application is proprietary, and thus cannot be modified or freely distributed.
See More
Top
Pro
Can share and collaboratively edit any item including lists
Keep allows sharing any item with other contacts and editing them together at the same time. This way a team can work together in real time, no matter their location.
See More
Top
Con
Can be difficult to discover the features
Google Keep has slowly been introducing new features, but doesn't do a good job of helping you discover them.
See More
Top
Pro
Really well implemented speech-to-text
Google has a lot of experience with speech-to-text functionality and they did a fantastic job with Keep. This means you can easily record spoken notes that can then be changed to a text based note.

Con

See More
Top
Pro
Supports drawing or writing notes by hand
Newer version of Google Keep now supports drawing on either a blank page, existing notes or in an image attached to the note.
See More
Top
Con
Does not integrate with Google Calendar or Tasks
It does not integrate with Google Calendar or other Google Apps with the exception of "Google Now." Keep reminders can appear on Google Calendar, but you can not get reminders and use Tasks at the same time.
See More
Top
Pro
Both location- and time-based reminders
You can set reminders that bring certain notes to your attention when you arrive at a specified location or when it’s a specified time or date. Unfortunately you can only do one or the other for each note.
See More
Top
Con
Too simplistic of an approach
See More
Top
Pro
Includes character recognition for text in images
Google Keep lets users take pictures of physical notes and makes the contents searchable within the app. This can be a convenient time saver for those that do not want to type out the necessary info, but rather take a quick snapshot of it.
See More
Top
Con
No integrated social media sharing
There is no integrated social media sharing if you directly want to post your note to Twitter, Facebook, etc.
See More
Top
Pro
Drag and drop sorting
You can move cards manually, which is great for prioritizing to-dos. Within a card, you can also drag and drop items.
See More
Top
Con
Not good at all for longer notes
With almost no formatting options whatsoever it's hard to actually use Keep for long-form notes.
See More
Top
Pro
Archives finished tasks
Any finished task is archived and can be searched at a later date.
See More
Top
Con
Sharing within team doesn't work that well
You can share separate notes but not Projects, Wordspace, or Teams.
See More
Top
Con
Not distributed
Cannot run on own servers as Keep will only run on Google's own servers. This increases the risks which are normally associated with handing over critical applications to a large (US) corporation.
See More
Top
Con
No notifications when tasks are added to shared lists
Although the ability to collaborate on lists is advanced, Keep will not let you know when another person adds an item to a list you share.

Con
Cannot share groups of notes (e.g., labels)
Google's equivalent of groups are labels, which can't be shared. By comparison, Trello allows you to share boards with others. Trello also supports grouping through teams. Google Keep has no such concept.
See More
Top
Con
Slow to save the updates
Saving is delayed by a moment and the saving status UI is unclear. You can lose updates if you close the tab too quickly.
See More
Top
Con
Delay between to-do entries
The keyboard closes and reloads between to-do list entries, so the first letters or words may be missed if you’re trying to quickly create a list.
See More
Top
Con
Notes get lost/deleted and can NOT be recovered
Since nothing is stored locally on the phone, everything can go missing. Google can't recover any of it.

No BlackBerry 10 app
No BlackBerry support apart from web.

No Windows Mobile app, and it is unlikely to ever be produced.
