Can you use any note app as the default with S-Pen, or must one use Samsung Notes?

Simple question as I've never used a Note phone before, just curious if I would have to use the default Samsung Notes or can I instead use any Notes app I install from the Play Store (be it Evernote or what have you)? Thanks!
