A frictionless experience for docs
What do you like best about the product?
Notion makes it very easy to write documentation and provides a distraction-free experience. It is the best tool which I have used till now for writing documents and also for small database which can be quickly linked with other documents within Notion.
What do you dislike about the product?
As an org admin, there are currently no analytics about the usage of the product by other members. I also think they can work on their pricing by not charging for those users who are not using Notion just like Slack.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping things documentation and readily available for search is something which Notion solves very well. Its really easy to make changes and mention people in Notion and by default it provides a very clean, readable experience for the content created within Notion
Speedy Support, Easy to Note-Take & Design, Easy to Access
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to share/create a single page such as a team wiki, while also keeping all the information together. There is no need to scroll through files to find documents because there is a quick search functionality. If you need help, the Notion Support team is available through live chat and responds promptly. At times, you get a newsletter email that is signed off by the CEO and feels personal. They're always releasing new features, which my team is able to efficiently utilize. Notion has a lot of possibilities ranging from building your own website, writing beautiful documentation, or project management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the Notion Support team misses the question you are asking and provides a canned response. It sometimes feels like going in a loop trying to solve your issue. There isn't an offline mode, therefore, some outages result in losing access to modifying to viewing your work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion allows my team to create a public help center, while also building internal documentation. As we organize documents in one single place, many members of the team can view them as they are being onboarded, and we can import data from other resources in a familiar interface.
Notion is the best for startups like DevDocs
What do you like best about the product?
The quick actions/hotkeys that allow you to quickly add a table, database, or link a new page in any current page
What do you dislike about the product?
The mentions or tagging notifications have been a little wonky for our team for a while. Sometimes we are able to receive notifications for mentions and other times we aren't
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it easy to onboard new team members, get them quickly knowledgable of our culture, processes, systems, and workflows, and even allows to actively manage projects instead of using different PM tools. All in one!
Best Software for wiki purposes and to build a knowledge base
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the building block style structure of Notion. You can nest as many as pages you want. There are different elements you can add in notion. This makes notion so powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really like the project management features of notion. It takes some effort to build your workflow and take some effort to maintain it as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It serves as the wiki for our company. All our project details, vision, marketing, brainstorming, research, high-level roadmap, employee details, product specs lie on notion. I use it personally as well to build my knowledge base. Everything I read and listen to will go into notion creating a knowledge base that I use for my own writing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a place to build your knowledge base, notion is perfect. But if you are looking it for project management do some research and see if it fits your workflow. It not good for quick note taking as well. Use some other tools like apple notes or google keept to take quick notes.
Flexible and easy to use for non-techy members
What do you like best about the product?
This is basically a wiki-ish product where all the information from something development-related documents or a sprint planning board to the HR or general affaire team to communicate with workers around their recent corporate-wide update topics.
It has the basic functionalities to document any type of information with the simple mark-down capabilities without using a mouse or a tracpad and this makes things simple and efficient.

What do you dislike about the product?
Its search capability is not strong enough. It would be great if we could search documents, pages, and contents with more criteria such as relevancies and filters.
I have found that the capability of google calendar integration is weak.
Notion's calendar (database) view should have more capabilities in its visibility other than "monthly", such as weekly or quarterly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sorting out issues around any kind of workstream using a board view in its database feature, collecting terminologies and creating a dictionary for newcomers to understand all the jargon across the company.
Our HR team is building pages for internal rules and regulations, and the employee engagement team is publishing internal newsletters on Notion for company-wide communication.

Helpful in segregating our scattered knowledge bases, engineering wiki at one place
What do you like best about the product?
The slick UI to create content. So much better than typing in boring GDocs. Databases are so helpful in seeing our internal content as reusable , referrable item.
What do you dislike about the product?
Anything I put in workspace gets shared to the entire team. i would have loved to be able to have control on visibility limited to a team or set of people that I choose.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Segregating our internal knowledge bases and engineering wiki at one place. Now we don't have to run a search on Slack or Gmail to look for something.
Fantastic to build databases for future purposes. Handy to have all information in one sheet.

The UX. It's much more pleasant to work with compared to Excel
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing. I would like an extra option for smaller companies to pay a fixed price per month (not per seat)

To have a single source of truth, which is very hard for a tour operator
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When I explain Notion to others, I say it's a much prettier version of Excel. I love that I can collect all information in one place, including documents and photos. I would highly recommend it to any project manager.
