All-in-One Flexibility for Seamless Project and Client Management
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most is their approach to AI, which, together with the platform's flexibility, has made a big difference for me. I've been able to consolidate many applications I would normally use separately into a single app, allowing them to work seamlessly together. Whether I need timesheet management, project management, a wiki, or client management, everything I require is available in one place. The addition of AI agents makes the platform even more powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not encountered any major problems with the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this tool for project management and timekeeping related to my clients. It helps me keep track of multiple projects by providing updates and summaries on our progress, which makes it easy to reorganize and prioritize tasks as needed. I also rely on it to review various business documents and process the information efficiently. Additionally, the smart task lists feature is particularly helpful in managing my workload.
Indispensable for PhD Organization, but Steep Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
Having just started my PhD program, I quickly found Notion to be an indispensable tool. It has helped me manage everything from tracking assignments to organizing my research, making it by far the best application for creating a personalized workspace that stores all the data, documents, and resources I need. I've also started using Notion for my job, and the features I find most helpful are the AI Writing Assistant and AI Meeting Notes. After attending a recent conference, I relied on AI Meeting Notes for every session, which gave me thorough, annotated, and synthesized notes to review, along with clear and accurate action items.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion can be challenging to set up and navigate, as it comes with a steep learning curve. Fortunately, there are plenty of templates available that you can use as a starting point when creating your workspace.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion has been instrumental in helping me take and organize notes from meetings, and it is quickly becoming my preferred tool for managing project tasks and timelines.

Notion is a need-to-have to support my work needs
What do you like best about the product?
notion has become a non-negotiable for me in the workplace. It is where I organize all relevant information for my clients - everything from implementation and technical resources, roles and responsibilities, monthly and weekly meeting notes, product requests, and customer escalations. I have been working internally to mandate notion for when teams are handing over accounts to new managers. I think it should be our standard best practice. It's super easy to use, extremely user friendly. I didn't have any proper training on it, i taught it to myself and had no issues. I use it daily and can't do my job without it!
What do you dislike about the product?
the Notion AI feature is not always the strongest but I believe that could be attributed to my organization having a bunch of resources and difficulty finding the source of truth within all the pages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization - not taking. Knowledge base - go to search hub before having to bother co-workers. Project management and program management where needed across complex clients.
Powerful but frustratingly slow - flexibility comes at a performance cost
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility is genuinely impressive - you can mold Notion into almost anything you need. The database functionality is powerful once you understand it, and the ability to create linked databases and relations between pages is unmatched. The clean, minimalist interface is beautiful, and the templates community is helpful for getting started. Cross-platform sync works reliably.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much tbh, it meets the exceptions what I need daily just to organize my projects, clients and daily tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion consolidates documentation, project tracking, and note-taking into one place, which reduces app switching. However, the benefits are offset by performance issues - what we gain in consolidation, we lose in speed and reliability. It's solving organizational sprawl but creating new friction with its sluggish interface and unreliable offline functionality.
Great for Team Task Management and Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Quite helpful in managing my schedule and prioritising tasks, along with my friends.
Adding friends to my group so that we can work on the project together, and managing updates regularly.

What do you dislike about the product?
The thing that I dislike is the poor mobile app experience and lagging issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've seen how messy it gets when team project information is scattered everywhere, making it hard to find what we need. Using a knowledge base solves this. It gives everyone one place to find the right answers.
Notion AI Impresses, But Auto-Save and Databases Need Work
What do you like best about the product?
I was skeptical at first, but it's really grown on me. I like that you can have one document and then share that into several different spaces, so that it can stay updated. The AI is top-of-the line and I really love it! I wish we'd taken more time to map out how we wanted our Notion to look, but that's on us.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do have trouble with the "auto-saving". I will go to creat something, click on the link, and there, it's saved. It's not easy to cancel or delete mistakes, and the databases are hard to understand (but Notion AI really helps).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm better able to sort my work and see it "all together" and that helps me prioritize. I mostly use it as a repository for my team, where I store announcements, work processes, technical and how-to documentation, and more.
Effortless Organisation with Powerful Structuring
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to say organised. Being able to create and store pages within a page is a game changer, and allows me to keep everything centralised per project. The text formatting options are also great!
What do you dislike about the product?
Search can be tricky sometimes unless you know roughly where a file is or what it’s called. That said, the file organisation is much better, so I rarely need to rely on search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Works much better than Google Docs. It's very easy for me to complete my synthesis and share it out to other members of the team or the wider org.
Great Organization, But Setup Is Challenging
What do you like best about the product?
Organization of notion is really good. But requires a good set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
It s really hard to set it up initially which makes it annoying to get started
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me turn my lecture notes into organized notes in one place.
Primary Source of Information for Company, Needs More Intuitive Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Due to the culture of Notion use at my company, Notion has become a really helpful tool for storing information. Notion AI has become such a game changer, what I used to dislike was the search functionality, but now I just leverage Notion AI.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times where Notion is not intuitive (for me) in terms of building out pages. I also wish it was a better collaboration tool so that I could exclusively use it vs also heavily relying on Google docs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reducing the need for an intranet and having a repository of information on teams/policies/work/etc.
