Centralized Workspace with Minor AI Tweaks Needed
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easily I can search across different things and multitask with multiple windows across multiple documents. I also like the collaborative tools, especially for meetings. It's helpful for our ownership team to keep all ongoing communications about the company's progress in Notion, so we're building agendas for upcoming owner meetings. I can share that and get feedback and input from the rest of the team very easily. I love that I can keep everything organized in one place with Notion. I can have a database of projects and attach or connect anything to it, making it easy to get more context quickly. The AI agent in Notion helps me build organizational tools, like a call tracker with meeting transcription. I use the AI tools to help me build databases, and it's great for updating templates. It saves me an enormous amount of time by having everything in one tool that I can access from my laptop, tablet, or phone without having to think about where things are.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think sometimes the AI agent misses the mark. It requires redirecting. Usually, that's not a permanent problem. Usually, that's a temporary thing. That just requires a little bit of refocusing. But that would probably be the biggest thing. Sometimes I find the way that the things will put in the side panel, where they kind of split screen, to be a little unintuitive. I have to manually say, I know I wanna make this full screen, I wanna make that a tab. But those are probably the biggest things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to keep track of projects, build Kanban boards, and maintain follow-up notes. It centralizes my information, saving me time by eliminating the need to search across multiple systems.

Workflow templates have transformed meeting follow‑up and now streamline shared task tracking
What is our primary use case?
Notion started out as a personal tool, and then I used it within a previous role to track projects as they were assigned to different parties. I introduced it within my current role to have as a landing space for shared materials and commonly used phrases, as well as track some key outputs.
In my current role, I use Notion as a way to have quick access to information. With the linking feature within Notion, I can create simple pages that have a title such as an introduction email template, and then I can click that link to access the template I have created. I worked through a lot of our processes so that we have templated items that we can quickly access.
My main use case includes having one other teammate that I primarily work with. She usually views Notion, although she could edit within Notion pages. Primarily, it is myself using it. Notion is effective as a shared workspace.
In my organization, we use Notion within our team primarily, and we use it as a private cloud.
What is most valuable?
In my opinion, the best features Notion offers are how easy it is to copy and paste templates and copy and paste certain features, such as lists or checkboxes. It is very easy to create a new page and build them out from nothing. Although I typically use templates because I feel there are many options.
Notion has positively impacted my organization because I was able to create a workflow with very low startup cost.
The workflow I created with Notion definitely saved us time so that we could synthesize what we were working on and visualize it versus having a simple checklist or having to track something through chats or emails. Having a landing page where we are able to track tasks being completed through different stages is helpful. It saves us money because not only is it more efficient, but the overall cost of Notion is low compared to other services.
What needs improvement?
In terms of improvement, the library of templates and how they are sourced in Notion could be enhanced. It is not something I interact with super frequently because once I build out a dashboard, I stick with what I know. However, I usually am grabbing templates from either influencers or YouTubers that have created something and walk through what they created themselves. Having strong partnerships with those members or having a way to search through the library with featured members might be interesting.
Regarding improvements in Notion, I watch many videos about it on YouTube and LinkedIn Learning. Building out a database for specific industries might be helpful, specifically for project managers within certain fields.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Notion is stable; everything is there when I need it to be there.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It can be tough to scale Notion and streamline how I create all the different pages. I am sure there is a way to do that; I might not have the skill to do it.
How are customer service and support?
I have not needed to use one-on-one customer support for Notion, but I do use the YouTube page to learn more.
How was the initial setup?
My experience with Notion's pricing, setup cost, and licensing was streamlined and simple.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment with Notion; it probably cuts our time in half for post-meeting review. It is probably cost-effective by 80%. Notion is much more affordable than some of the other options.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I had tested out Monday.com, but found it to be a rather expensive service. Before choosing Notion, I evaluated Monday.com.
What other advice do I have?
I usually get my templates in Notion from another user, sometimes watching a YouTube video where they have created their template and are offering it for use.
There are many options in Notion, which is why I do not always create my own pages and use templates instead.
I would tell people looking into using Notion to watch tutorials and find the best templates so that they can get really good inspiration for what to create because starting with a blank page can be really daunting.
I Notion and I always tell people to give it a chance. Overall, I would rate this review an 8.

Streamlined Info Access, Easy Setup
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion to look up all company information, such as training materials and information related to people team days off and compliance. It streamlines where I can find different information, so I don't have to go searching as much. I like how easy it is to find different information. The company homepage is much more organized, and if I'm not seeing something immediately, I know I can always type it into search, and it will pop up pretty quickly. It really streamlines how quickly I can find different information. The initial setup of Notion for my team was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still pretty new, so just figuring things out. Maybe having more information that relates just to myself and my job instead of lots of company wide information. There's just a lot of stuff on here, so sometimes it can get mixed up. I would say just streamlining information that relates more to my job and what I do at Gusto than company wide information sometimes it does get confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion streamlines where I can find different information, so I don't have to go searching as much, making the company homepage more organized and easy to navigate.
Highly Intuitive Tool for Managing Business Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
I like how user-friendly Notion is. I also like the AI agent. It seems like it's very intuitive, making it easier for me to ask questions and find answers quickly instead of spending my own time searching. The AI agent has been super helpful in understanding different questions I have about our roadmap and finding things within our internal documentation. This has been really important as I just started a new role within my company, and Notion has been helping me a lot with understanding more about what we do and how we run.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that it's hard sometimes to figure out how to type in Notion, how to create new pages, because it's so different from Google Docs or Word or anything like that. But once you understand how it works, it is really cool how in-depth you can get and just the different features that it offers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion's AI agent to find answers in our internal docs quickly without searching manually, which is super helpful in my new role.
Highly Customizable Notion, Especially for Filtered Database Views
What do you like best about the product?
How customizable Notion can be, espeically when creating filtered database views
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a learning curve at first, maybe not the most intuitive for a beginner
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping all my projects, tasks, and content plans organized. We are utilizing database templates with buttons, which makes it really easy to pass off to other team members and/or update status
