The true all-in-one tool
What do you like best about the product?
Notion offers such a versatile set of tools that I feel there are virtually no limits to what it can accomplish. I've often told my coworkers that, with Notion, "there should never be another pain point or pinch point in my workflow ever again." It integrates seamlessly with everything I need, making my tasks much easier. Thanks to the AI features, I was able to transfer nearly all of my work processes into Notion in no time. After just a week of using it, I found myself fully committed to the system. I can't start my workday without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lot of refining that can be done to the existing features. There's nothing I can't work around, but it'd be nice if workarounds weren't required in the first place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There has been a software that I've been begging to have exist for years, something that could track and notify me about multiple different certifications for hundreds of different people, track their expirations, and send emails as necessary based on which certifications are about to expire, or at least send me an email alert to reach out to that person. When you search online to see if this software exists, you find thesis papers about why this software would be revolutionary, yet nobody's bothered to create it--Notion built it for me in 10 minutes. Absolute game-changer. I will recommend Notion to every person I ever meet.
We're implementing actual helpdesking systems for our employees using forms that automatically assign the correct person to the problem. We're tracking vacations that require multi-level management approval. Managing meeting note access according to assignee groups, managing all event meeting tasks and notes in a single dashboard, and we've created a company-wide inventory list. All things we had no way of doing previously.

All-in-one workspace for research and project management
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is extremely flexible and customizable, making it easy to adapt for personal productivity as well as team collaboration. I especially like the ability to combine documents, databases, and task boards in one place. It’s intuitive to use once you get familiar with it, and the templates save a lot of time when setting up new projects. For academic research and knowledge management, it helps me organize notes, references, and writing drafts seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is performance when handling very large databases or pages—it can become slow at times. The offline mode is also limited, which makes it less reliable when traveling or working without stable internet. In addition, the learning curve can be steep for new users since the flexibility sometimes feels overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps centralize all my research materials, project notes, and task management in one place. Previously, information was scattered across different apps and hard to track, but now I can maintain a structured knowledge base that connects documents, databases, and tasks seamlessly. This improves collaboration, reduces time spent searching for files, and makes it easier to stay organized and productive.
Bespoke Solutions and Seamless AI Integration with Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I love the bespoke nature of Notion, allowing me to craft a personalized system that feels indispensably mine. The AI integrations are outstanding, enhancing my productivity and offering the best experience. Its ability to centralize information efficiently has been game-changing, seamlessly integrating with Claude AI, and it's consistently available across all my devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I initially found the AI integration within Notion a little bit limited. It was not as intuitive or powerful in the beginning as I had hoped. Additionally, there are legislative restrictions in the UK that prevent me from fully integrating my Chat GPT plus account with Notion, which is inconvenient. Moreover, although I've found workarounds with tools like Zapier, I still face limitations in how Claude AI parses information, not directly tied to Notion but affecting its use. Also, there's a bit of a learning curve if you're not prepared to customize your templates which may not appeal to everyone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion as a one-stop shop for organizing and centralizing all my information, improving data integration and customization. Its AI tools help me create bespoke solutions, and its seamless integration with other systems like Gmail enhances my productivity.
Notion changed my life
What do you like best about the product?
Genuinely the best £20 a month I spend. I am a tiny one person band and it’s wonderful - I’ve been a notion fan for years and it keeps getting better. Genuinely excited by what updates they bring out next.
What do you dislike about the product?
the mobile app isn’t as good - and the ability to be able to delete things easily is a worry sometimes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This has been helpful in making my ADHD brain more organised and keeping track of my daily tasks and projects
Perfect for AI organization of notes, ideas and prompts
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy ti implement and create new databases and views. I love the AI feature and the fact that it seamlessly finds, edits, and creates new entries and whole data sets too. The meeting note taker has been a complete game changer for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far. There is a bit of a learning curve with all the advanced applications but to start, it's easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion every day for note taking when on a zoom call or when needing to take a voice note or transcribe a video. It solves having notes scattered everywhere and not easily searchable. With notion I push a button, have my meeting, and my meeting notes, transcript, and summary are all in my database and compleately searchable, and ACTIONABLE with the build in AI
Notion has replaced so many other systems for me
What do you like best about the product?
It is a powerhouse project management and notetaking tool. I used it to organize everything when I wrote my first book, from mood boards to interviews with other authors to the budget. I use it to organize everything for my podcast, and it keeps everything connected. I even use it in my personal life to keep track of those little things that I need to remember (like answers to secret questions to log into websites, and what everybody in my family likes to order from different restaurants). I like the Chrome extension for bookmarking sites that I need to refer back to. The addition of their AI tools makes it even better. It transcribes all of my meetings and summarizes them. I can use their most recent AI upgrade to have it build new pages for me. The internal search is outstanding. You can also connect it to many other platforms. I also use their Mail and Calendar, which also helps keep everything together in one place and connected. Their customer support is fast and helpful. They even provide some 1:1 live support. This is one of the first apps I open every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
It may not be suitable for everyone, as it is based on a database model. It takes a little while to get used to building new pages or customizing templates you have purchased or downloaded. You can't sketch or do any freeform activities (like make boxes, add arrows to things). It is limited in the fonts and colors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me organize everything in one place. Since everything is in one system, it is easy to find things, connect data, and avoid the need for or expense of multiple systems. Without Notion, I would need to copy and paste data from one system to another.
Strong, but still a bit wonky
What do you like best about the product?
I love the seamlessness of the Notion AI, many of the bugs have been sorted, and the ability to turn it into an "Agent" is nice ― however, I wouldn't quite yet call it an agent IMO. Perhaps I'm not using it in the best possible way yet, but I love the developments.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit clunky. Even with the context I've provided, it doesn't always interpret my commands as I would hope. Further, it needs more work with integrations.
Last thing, with meeting notes, I want it to auto-record zoom and google meet meetings and then put it in the right workspace area. Right now, it's not intuitive.

Meeting note transcription and email drafting from those meetings.
Easily My Favorite Productivity Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I'm absolutely in love with using Notion overall and specifically Notion's AI and the new agents feature. It has made so many areas of my life significantly easier, faster, and I'm not sure how I got along so long without it. I produce YouTube content, and the templating and agents feature makes doing that incredibly efficient. I also do voice journaling, and being able to quickly pull in 3 weeks' worth of journal entries and generate a therapy agenda is impactful beyond measure.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I can really say is that it has similar challenges like any AI in that it sometimes hallucinates and it sometimes misses things. This is not by any means unique to Notion, though; all AI faces these particular challenges at the moment, and I do find Notion's knowledge management using the AI tools to be the best experience I've had.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mentioned in my previous comments that I use Notion's AI and the new agents feature to streamline much of my work, particularly my journaling and also in content creation.
Streamlined My Life, Boosted Productivity
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Notion's databases communicate efficiently and are structurally intelligent, helping me manage my personal and business life seamlessly. Notion's ability to act as a second brain has been invaluable in tackling my forgetfulness. The efficient integration of agents that performs tasks for me saves a significant amount of time, reducing stress and anxiety. I also enjoy the intuitive design that makes task organization into a beautiful and harmonious experience. The combination of databases, mobile accessibility, public publishing feature, and flexible access levels perfectly suit my needs, enhancing usability and convenience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it challenging to get familiar with Notion and build it into my workflow, which has taken years. Despite its potential, my lack of education on using its features, such as rollouts and relations, made the experience frustrating at times. Additionally, in the beginning, there was a lack of community support that I was willing to participate in, making it a difficult experience for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion acts as my second brain, combating forgetfulness and streamlining tasks with agents, saving me significant time. It reduces stress and anxiety by managing extensive checklists and organizing my workflow efficiently, even down to sorting my backpack by pocket.
Organize and share documents
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everyone in my organization can share all their thoughts and we can easily fellow them to slack and also publish them to our website blog and AI is really helpful for finding other people's documents as well
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a couple of formatting features that I miss.Since i'm used to using stuff like microsoft office and word and excel, being able to do a little bit more robust rearranging of things like make it look pretty or be better organized within a document be helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Within our company, we use it to create and publish our own documents to share proposals within our teams.And also to leave comments.So no she gives me a platform where I can deliver my own ideas and share them with my team
