Manage workspaces
It has helped me to organize my life
A flexible tool that helps individuals and businesses organize their activities while ensuring that its users experience an increase in their productivity
What is our primary use case?
I use Notion as a tool to organize my own activities and plans to help me with my productivity part. I help my company's clients to organize their business with Notion.
How has it helped my organization?
I work with many clients and keep juggling from one project to another. I have to use QuickBooks and Keeper for jotting down notes about the cases I encounter. With Notion, I can create different segments and specifically organize the details pertaining to each client. I don't really have to stress about remembering the details of each client separately since I can just organize the details concerning a particular client. All in all, I get to see an overview of everything I handle in Notion, and I can really get into the details, such as the details of my work on a particular day. In Notion, I see what tasks are coming up, along with their deadlines.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of the solution is its flexibility. Notion is a tool that allows you to fit everything in the solution. Notion allows you to build the solution the way you want it.
What needs improvement?
The linked view of database, along with the sharing and permission settings, are areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement.
I would like to see Notion with more automation and exchange functionalities that can be used for databases so that I don't have to necessarily use some external integration platform to connect to other databases.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Notion for two to three years. I use the solution's online version without downloading its application.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I have noticed that the solution crashes, especially when I was testing a few things, because of which I had to do everything again. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine to ten out of ten.
How are customer service and support?
I won't be able to comment on the solution's technical support since I can gather the information I want from social groups. The technical support is not really there at all.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of Notion is easy. The solution helps you with basic things, but you can also use the solution similar to how I use it to deal regularly with complex stuff.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
What was our ROI?
I have experienced a return on investment with Notion since it helped my productivity go through the roof.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution's pricing can seem steep, especially when you work with a lot of people. If you are working on your own or for another business, the solution's price won't affect you much.
What other advice do I have?
Notion shared an update for the database, which allows you to share your database the same way you can do it on monday.com, making it one of the fantastic additions.
I would tell those planning to use the solution that they need not get scared or overwhelmed with what they see online since everybody started with the solution somewhere.
I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.
