    Non-Profit Organization Management

There's really no way to run a business without shared understanding

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You need products like Notion to get it done. It's easy to use. Your coworkers can comment. Todo lists abound. It's awesome and flexible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search needs help. It's slow and clunky and I never seem to be able to easily find things via search so you have to have a good sense of organization as a team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
You can't remember everything after a few good night's sleep. Also, who has time to meet and constantly retell everybody everything. Stuff's gotta be written down. Also the process of gathering information is best facillitated via a document that helps organize thoughts. Notion is great at this.

Notion is a great platform for organization and teamwork

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Notion tool is excellent because its AI integration is very useful. My favorite use is the context menu, as it helps me a lot with messages and texts. I like its variety of customization and organization tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've only experienced one technical issue where content was lost when I first started using the tool, but it was minimal and due to my lack of experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall, Notion provides a versatile and highly customizable platform for organizing information and collaborating with others. Its ability to handle a wide range of content types and intuitive interface are major positives.

Notion makes the tedious things easy, and beautiful

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So I think the best thing about notion that I like is the fact that there are so many community templates for everything you could thing of, which makes organising my life a breeze.

I also like the fact you can create a wiki as a sort of knowledge base to ease learning and onboarding of new emploees
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the performance of the desktop app on mac could be improved significantly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion allows us to centralize research knoweldge under one location, and with wiki mode templates it makes it super easy.

    Accounting

As simple or detailed as you need

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I use notion almost every day. I used it while in University, and I still use it now that I work full-time. Notion is very customisable and the user interface is quite intuitive. I never feel too overwhelmed with the options made available to me (unlike using things like Asana, Jira, etc). I also like the community aspect of Notion, where people put up their own templates for others to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the search functionality on Notion could be better. Also, allowing us to format the text inside of tables would be useful too (for example allowing things like dropdowns or dates to be inside tables).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's my one place to keep all of my organised notes / thoughts / learnings. It allows me to be efficient at my job and keep track of things.

Create place for brain dumps and more

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Both very powerful but at the same time gets out of your way and lets you work. Love that I can easily convert to pdf as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would love a simpler "offline" mode for certain use cases. Databases aren't super intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very easy to categorize information. Cross referencing between different pages.

Notion to manage my life

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are so many free features that I can manage both my business and personal tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion is not as intuitive as I would like. Someone with little to no PM software experience may find that there is a long learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a real estate agent and I use Notion to manage my leads and transactions all in one place. It allows me to integrate with some of my broker's software so I don't have to enter information twice - saving so much time.


    Research

It's greatest strength is also the greatest hurdle

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The customizability and the available templates to get me started. I love that I can take a template that is 75% of what I need and customize it. This requires that I have a clear vision in my head about my process, but when I have clarity, Notion helps me to achieve it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The customizability and open-endedness are also the most difficult hurdles to overcome. If I do not have a vision for a process or a clear organizational structure in my head, I have to really commit to searching for templates and hope that I "recognize what will work". This can be particularly difficult for someone with ADHD.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me to set up a Lab Electronic Notebook for research projects that are led by others in my lab group.
It is also helping me to manage my own projects by breaking down tasks, keeping track of timelines, and keeping project-related notes in one place.

One stop destination for documenting everything

  • August 01, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love that it is a one stop destination to document everything we do to pass it on to teams. I also like the ability to add comments and get a conversation going with colleagues on specific points. The ability to share link to a specific block of document is also helpful at times.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only thing I find hard sometimes is manually maintaining the docs. It would be easier if I can connect Notion with some tools we use to automatically fetch data and update accordingly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not everyone has access to everything we use. We use Notion to solve that problem my keeping the docs up to date from tools that have restricted access. We also use it to document software installations and onboarding for new developers

  • Review provided by G2

The user experience is very good, all cards are drag and drop and feel easy to track the list of the pending items.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can have additional features and expand the functionality to have diagrams
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One central place where I can keep track of all the action items and issues to resolve in a dashboard.
