Really great experience

  • November 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the toggle lists and how it keeps everything organized in my life. I use it daily for my classes and to do lists. I also love that I can use it on my phone, and laptop with it being available offline.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that there should be an option to search the notes that include toggled lists instead of always having to show them. I love the AI too, but I think that there should be a settings box to ask the AI to always put notes in bullet points. Another issue is that sometimes I ask it to summarize a section/bullet point a list, and it defaults to the entire page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving the issue of me not having a place to type my notes or keep them organized. That benefits me tremendously.

Notion: A Game-Changer for Productivity and Collaboration

  • November 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So Notion dropped their AI 2.0 thing and honestly? It's been pretty solid. The writing assistance is actually helpful instead of getting in my way, and the auto-suggestions usually make sense. Takes some of the grunt work out of organizing my thoughts and planning stuff out.
What really got me though was all the database updates. The tab system finally works how you'd expect it to, and being able to group things on boards feels obvious now - weird that it took this long. Calendar's way less clunky too. I've got like 5 different projects running and it doesn't feel like I'm fighting the interface anymore.
Those project templates they added are surprisingly decent - not just fluff. And the integrations with Slack and Figma actually work without breaking every other week. Used to drive me nuts how nothing would sync properly.
Mobile was trash for the longest time, especially when you'd lose signal and everything would just... stop. That's mostly sorted now thank god. Having everything in one place instead of bouncing between calendar apps and task managers has been nice. Started as just a note-taking app for me but now it's basically where I live work-wise.
What do you dislike about the product?
Don't get me wrong, the updates are solid, but there's definitely room for improvement. The search function still drives me crazy sometimes - I'll be looking for something I know I wrote last week and it's like the app has no clue what I'm talking about. You end up having to remember exactly how you worded something instead of just finding it naturally.

Performance can still be hit or miss, especially with bigger databases. Sometimes pages take forever to load and you're just sitting there waiting. And while the mobile app is way better than before, it's still not quite there for heavy editing. Fine for quick notes but anything complex and you're better off waiting to get back to your computer.

The AI stuff is helpful but it can be weirdly inconsistent. Sometimes it nails exactly what you want, other times it's completely off base. Would love if it learned your writing style better over time instead of giving the same generic suggestions to everyone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the challenge of scattered information and fragmented tools by offering a unified platform for note-taking, task management, and collaboration. Its flexibility allows me to tailor the workspace to my specific needs, improving organization and efficiency. Real-time collaboration features have streamlined communication and project coordination, making Notion an integral part of my workflow.

Perfect companion to support project management activities

  • November 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Helps organize thoughts and collect meeting notes. Helps create initial content and supports me in the ideation process. Love to use it to review notes to my team and emails to customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the AI solution is way too long and there is no way to ask it to shorten it when it is created by the tool without previous information. Would be nice if it had a feature to make shorter when AI creates content from scratch. It is also not clear where is the AI collecting information from (current page or the entire notebook).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to quickly take notes and organize them in a way that is in a clear format for review. Helps review clear and consistent messaging for my team.

Very good way to organise the notes

  • November 20, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is great for organizing study notes because you can change it to fit your needs. It's easy to use and you can put pictures and videos in your notes. It also helps you keep track of your tasks and work with others on projects. Notion makes studying and staying organized simple and effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Embedded AI's limited capability in contextualizing and analyzing the text within individual notes. Unlike more advanced AI tools that can generate responses based on a broad knowledge base, Notion's AI tends to focus narrowly on the specific content of the note it's working with. This means that while it can assist in organizing and managing the text you've already created, it falls short in providing comprehensive insights or suggestions that draw from wider sources or contexts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion's ability to organize notes from different courses into a neatly arranged table significantly streamlines study and revision processes. This feature not only enhances accessibility and organization but also greatly simplifies tracking and reviewing diverse study materials in one centralized location.

Elaboration on ideas into a deliverable form. Easy organization of papers, notes, and links.

AI has changed how I worked

  • November 20, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The built in AI feature has increased my use of Notion. I originally joined to keep the different parts of my life organized. I didn't do the best job setting up Notion in a way that it was seamless and easy to keep track of things, but the AI feature has brought me back. I use it for many different on a daily basis. The AI integration is seamless and is defintely something that has made work easier for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, Notion does a good job at sharing tutorials and how-to's, but the intital set up of a workflow that is sustainiable is pretty intimidating. There are a lot of features within Notion and understanding what works best for you can take a long time to figure out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me deal with the everyday tasks that can take up time. From properly wording an email or report to doing desk research about a topic. It helps me save a lot of time and mental labor that can be used for bigger picture tasks. Other than that it helps me with general brainstorming and has provided me with both insight and inspiration towards my work and personal tasks.

Review of Notion: Including AI writing assistant

  • November 20, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is great ot organize many different aspects of life. You can tailor it to your needs and is incredibly flexible in layout, design, and functionality. It's also really easy to keep organized due to everything being in blocks, and those blocks have so much power
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it had more options for charts/spreadsheets. I wish it could generate graphs, but I understand this isn't an excel document nor a google sheet. However the functionality of being able to integrate those functions natively to Notion databases would be superb.

Another thing that might be offputting to some but I didn't really mind is that Notion has a steep learning curve. Sure it's easy to get the basics down, but to really get good at notion you need to really invest a lot of tiem into either experimenting with it or with watching tutorials/videos online.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion AI is able to quickly teach me brief overviews of topics before class. It can also rewrite my notes and allows me to ask myself practice questions afterward as well.

I use it to organize all my notes for medical school

I think it would be great if Notion could incorporate formula functions similar to those found in Excel or Google Sheets.

As someone who frequently uses Notion for data management and organization, having this additional functionality would be a huge asset and would make my workflow much more efficient.
