Streamlined Document Management, Needs Database UX Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like using Notion for organizing my marketing documents. It has become a hub where I can collate all my projects efficiently. The structure of layers of pages within pages is really helpful for organizing and accessing information quickly. I find it easier to search and draw from my documents using Notion than with Google Drive. I also appreciate the ability to use AI to access and manage my documents, and having CheckGPT connected allows further integration and utility.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the database user experience isn't totally intuitive. And, yeah, maybe some better easier education in the app about how to use databases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion serves as a hub for document review and knowledge management, making it quicker to access and search documents. It enhances project visibility and replaces Google Drive for document collation.
Versatile and User-Friendly, But Slow with Large Databases
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the versatility of Notion for both work and personal use, as it effectively handles project management, knowledge databases, and list management. I find it simple to use, which makes it convenient for organizing tasks, and the database feature is particularly valuable because it helps structure information efficiently. The initial setup was very easy, making the overall experience smoother.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that big databases with more than 1000 items are slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for project management, knowledge database and sharing, and list management.
Flexible and Collaborative with Limited Automations
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion for project management and tasks for the marketing team. It helps get everything in the same place, and everyone can see what other people are doing and work together on transversal projects. It simplifies complex projects. I like the flexibility of the tool, and the use of emojis is a fun addition. The knowledge base is great too. Compared to Jira, Notion is more flexible and friendly. The initial setup was very easy since I had used it before.
What do you dislike about the product?
Automations are very limited, and I can't add logic as I'd like to, for example, setting conditions like 'if date is before or after date' to automatically tag a column. I also find that interacting with just a part of a database requires paying for a full seat, even for a very limited contributor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to organize everything in one place, make complex projects simpler, and help the team collaborate on transversal projects. It offers more flexibility and friendliness compared to Jira.
Flexible, Intuitive, but Challenging Database Management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion as my personal knowledge base, task list, notetaker, shipping list, and article highlight storage. I appreciate Notion's flexibility, which makes it easy to create a structure for storing whatever I need. Setting up Notion was super easy, and I didn't find any friction when setting up my private space.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think recently, mainly the interaction design is a little bit more challenging when you are managing databases. Everything is in the side panel. I often get confused by what is a grouping and what is an attribute and where I can add attributes, where I can control attribute values, where I control visibility. It's usually a lot of clicking and back and forth. Before I set things up. But then, ultimately, things work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion as a single place to store all my notes. Its flexibility allows me to easily create structures for storing whatever I need.
Effortless Team Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion for planning work with my team and sharing information on joint projects. It makes it very easy to align our timelines between different communication channels, and I use it to relay tasks to people in different locations by creating tasks for them with all the necessary information. Notion excels at information sharing between team members and allows us to comment on each other's work when reviews are needed. I really like the easy sharing of information between team members. Embedding different files like PDFs and videos is very useful as it makes it easier to refer to outside material. The initial setup of Notion was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've experienced minor connectivity issues from time to time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to easily align timelines, relay tasks to remote team members, create and share task information, and comment on work for reviews. It simplifies sharing information and embedding files.
Notion as Our Central Hub: Flexible Workflows and Powerful Databases
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is the central hub for almost everything I do at Amenitiz. I use it daily to manage communications and campaign submissions, track help center article requests, document PRDs, and collaborate across teams.
What I like most is how flexible it is. We’ve been able to build structured workflows for campaign intake and documentation while still keeping things easy to navigate. The database functionality is especially powerful as it allows us to track projects, assign ownership, add statuses, and keep everything transparent in one place.

What do you dislike about the product?
Because Notion is so flexible, it can sometimes become messy if there isn’t a clear structure or governance in place. As workspaces grow, it’s easy to duplicate pages or lose visibility if things aren’t organized carefully. The user experience here isn't super intuitive here and can be frustrating to use.
Some database views can also become heavy or slightly slow when they include a lot of relations and filters. And while it’s powerful, there can be a bit of a learning curve for new team members who aren’t familiar with building structured databases.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the problem of scattered information and disconnected workflows. Before centralizing processes, requests and documentation would live across emails, Slack threads, and different tools, which made tracking and visibility difficult. It also helps me stay organized and prioritize effectively, since I can see everything in structured databases with clear statuses and owners.
Indispensable for Centralizing and Collaborating
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the UX of Notion because it makes my user experience pleasant. Also, the ease of communication is a major asset for me. I can easily share a page link, create stylish info blocks, and make small databases.
What do you dislike about the product?
The power of databases is quite limited. The loading fluidity is global and could be improved, and Notion could benefit from a 100% customizable module to fully personalize the tool according to our preferences.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to centralize information, organize knowledge, collaborate on projects, and facilitate communication. I can easily share pages, create design information blocks, and manage small databases.
Essential Tool for Collaboration and Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
I really like using Notion so I don't have to worry about formatting, and I find that it always looks the same, which helps with reading. I also appreciate that Notion can centralize all our documentation in one place, which is pretty cool. It also makes collaboration with my colleagues on a document easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Research, I find it complicated to find, to retrieve documents when we are in a Notion space that is very professional.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to centralize all our documentation, which is great, and it improves collaboration with my colleagues on the documents.
Intuitive and Organized, but Navigation to Improve
What do you like best about the product?
I organize my work and define tasks with Notion, and I like how I can assign these tasks to my collaborators and track them. The interface is clear and smooth, which I really like. Additionally, the kanbans are very useful for structuring my projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The navigation in the sidebar could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion allows me to organize my work, define tasks, assign them to collaborators, and track progress. Kanban boards are very useful for this.
Effortless Navigation, Needs Better Search

What do you dislike about the product?
The search function could be better, results could be more relevant.
