Do you consider OneNote a safe and secure option for storing credentials, passwords, server logins?
OneNote is fine. It's Sharepoint security that is of the concern here.

My O365 Business plan does not include Sharepoint I don't think. That is for Business Premium.
What does Sharepoint add as far as client notes that I can't do just with OneNote alone? -

Well it adds a wiki. But the big thing is that it hosts the OneNote files with user-level ACL. Very powerful.

But the wiki is really useful. You can use the wiki instead of OneNote, too. They work quite differently. OneNote is good for rich content. Wiki is good for fast editing.

I don't really understand a OneNote note as a "file".
In my O365 account, I cannot even access OneNote from the web browser, it just has an error:
It does tell me to go look in OneDrive for the notes, but I don't see any notes in OneDrive, I don't get it. Are notes stored in files? It's just weird.
I can see how a wiki could be useful, but a wiki is meant to be unstructured, while a database of clients and projects and work mixed with files and invoices and other stuff, doesn't come off as something that lends itself to a wiki.
I thought for sure there would be some popular "freelancer" or "self-employed" service/app that does all this stuff, rolled in to one. Maybe there is, haven't looked hard enough.

One Note should be installed on your desktop if you have office 365. Think of OneNote as a binder. It has tabs for sections and individual pages you can put in each section.
First set one up on your desktop then save it to your OneDrive. There now you can access it online and edit etc.

I see what happened. It seems that all my notebooks went in to my personal hotmail account instead of the 365 account.
MS is a little goofy when it comes to trying to mix-n-match what is my personal acct versus the 365 one. -

What does Sharepoint add as far as client notes that I can't do just with OneNote alone?We use metadata to make Sharepoint even more useful. Want to see all documents by customer? One click and you are there.

Not sure I understand the connection. So you're in a Sharepoint wiki and you "click a user" and then see all their OneNote notes and OneDrive files? Or are you keeping all their info just in Sharepoint?

Not the Sharepoint wiki, we keep OneNotes in Sharepoint with metadata.

So more like a document store?
Speaking of security, if a note is just a file in OneDrive, can't it be shared out to a client that way?

Should be able to, yes.
