Versatile Note-Taking, But Pricey for Personal Use
What do you like best about the product?
I like the variety of components you can use and the database features, including the different views you can generate from the database. The wealth of plugins and templates available online is also great. The Notion AI assistant is the first time I've really engaged with AI for personal use in a meaningful way. It's really great to be able to reference and summarize information I have stored. Additionally, the initial setup of Notion was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the Notion business plan is quite expensive. I don't use it for business reasons so I feel there should be a slightly cheaper tier that is for individuals. The Notion calendar app does not work on my Android phone at all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion organizes large amounts of information I encounter daily and helps me remember tasks. I use it for notes on work and personal life, planning, tracking media consumption, and referencing video essay information.
AI-Powered Editing That Keeps My Notes Neat
What do you like best about the product?
Several useful features available for editing along with AI support, helps in making my notes neat.
What do you dislike about the product?
Folder structure display could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly notes doesn't keep note easy to read, even searching a bit harder once you have more notes. It keeps my notes easy to make and use. Notes organization is better in Notion.

AI-Powered Notion Supercharges Business Planning
What do you like best about the product?
I like the AI agent in Notion. If I have something in mind, I just ask the AI agent to create a page or database, and I'm surprised at how it transforms into something tangible and beneficial. For example, if I have a meeting script, I simply ask the AI agent to create a detailed meeting summary, and it gets done accurately and beautifully. When I want to track my app subscriptions, I just ask the AI agent to create a database, and it gets done much faster than me going and making spreadsheets, for example. Plus, the initial setup was straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel there are a lot of things I am not really utilizing it for and I wish I could connect my Teams to it so I get my meetings summarized instantly. Syncing my Outlook would also be great. It would be amazing to connect LinkedIn to Notion for managing my content and CRM with full sync.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for tracking, planning, and progress reviews. The AI agent is great for creating detailed meeting summaries and databases, helping me organize my business needs faster and more accurately than spreadsheets.
Seamless Daily Workflow with Notion’s Flexible, Intuitive Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Notion is how seamlessly it fits into my daily workflow. I use Notion tasks and Notion Mail regularly and the overall ease of use is a big reason I keep coming back. The interface is intuitive, flexible, and doesn’t feel overwhelming despite the number of features available. I was able to get started and implement it quickly without any heavy setup or onboarding.
Notion really shines in task management and customisation I can tailor views, databases and workflows exactly to how I think and work. Integrations with other tools are straightforward, and syncing information across the Notion suite feels natural rather than forced. I use it very frequently (almost daily) and it scales well from simple to complex use cases.
Customer support and community resources are also solid. While I don’t need support often, documentation and templates make it easy to self-serve. Overall, Notion strikes a great balance between powerful features and usability, which is rare for a tool this flexible.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Notion is powerful, it does have a learning curve once you move beyond basic usage. The sheer number of features and customisation options can feel overwhelming at times, especially when trying to set up more advanced workflows or databases efficiently.
Performance can occasionally lag with very large pages or complex databases, which becomes noticeable when you use it as frequently as I do. Some integrations, while available, still feel less native than expected and require manual workarounds.
Customer support is generally helpful, but response times can vary and for power users, more advanced troubleshooting guidance would be appreciated. Also, while Notion Mail and tasks are improving, there’s still room for refinement to make them feel as polished and fast as dedicated tools in those categories.
That said, these are more trade-offs of flexibility than deal breakers and Notion continues to improve steadily.

That said, these are more trade-offs of flexibility than deal breakers and Notion continues to improve steadily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the problem of having work scattered across too many tools. Instead of managing tasks in one app, documentation in another and emails somewhere else, Notion brings everything into a single, flexible workspace. Using Notion tasks and Notion Mail together helps me centralise planning, execution and communication without constantly switching contexts.
This consolidation has made my workflow more efficient and easier to manage on a daily basis. I can turn emails into tasks, link them to projects and track progress in one place. The benefit for me is clarity I spend less time organising information and more time actually working on it.
Notion also solves the problem of rigid tools that don’t adapt to how individuals work. Its customisation and integrations allow me to design workflows that fit my needs rather than forcing me into a predefined structure. Overall, it’s helped me stay organised, reduce tool fatigue, and maintain consistency across my work, especially with frequent, day-to-day usage.

Notion’s Flexible Blank Canvas with Elegant Database Views
What do you like best about the product?
I find Notion's flexibility really appealing - it's essentially a blank canvas that can become whatever you need: notes, databases, wikis, project trackers, or all of the above linked together. The way it handles databases with different views (table, kanban, calendar, gallery) from the same underlying data is particularly elegant.
What do you dislike about the product?
The AI Meeting Notes feature needs work. Speaker attribution is unreliable - it frequently mixes up who said what in summary notes, which defeats the purpose when you're trying to capture action items or decisions from a meeting. Without voice enrollment or better speaker diarization, the summaries require significant editing to be useful.
Beyond that, performance can feel sluggish with larger databases, search across complex workspaces is inconsistent, and the mobile experience still lags behind desktop.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It consolidates my research, notes, and project tracking in one place. The database functionality lets me organize information with custom properties and switch between views depending on what I need to see. It's replaced scattered documents and spreadsheets with a single searchable workspace.
The Ultimate Personal Knowledge Hub
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion as a personal repository for my career development, keeping track of books and online courses along with my notes. It's essentially my second brain, allowing me to have all my thoughts in one place. I like to draft blogs and quickly add ideas to remember later. The AI feature helps me synthesize my ideas quicker by pulling my thoughts from multiple pages into one, which is easier than manually going page by page. This not only saves time but sometimes leads to conclusions I hadn't reached, making my synthesis more interesting and empowering. The initial setup was pretty simple without any frustrating or confusing parts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm disappointed that the integration for Google Drive doesn't work with personal Google accounts. I don't have a business, but I have a lot of content in my Drive that I would love to sync with Notion, but can't. Also, I feel like I underutilize some of the features. I would like to use automations more, I just don't know how I can use it for my personal use case.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion as a personal repository, streamlining idea synthesis and note organization. It helps me quickly pull together thoughts using AI, empowering me to grasp ideas better and keep all my notes in one place.
Essential for Organized Teams, But Needs Regular Updates
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion as a shared workspace for capturing and organizing just about everything in our company, including notes, documents, projects, and mostly enablement material. I find their AI search tool incredibly helpful in finding the information I need. It's great to have all company policies in Notion. If I need to know how to do something or find something, searching in Notion AI invariably pulls it up, saving a ton of time and eliminating confusion. I also appreciate the ability to navigate company policies, documents, and standards without having to ask a bunch of dumb questions. I love that I can start an account plan or a deal workspace in just a few minutes, and it doesn't require much know-how. Most importantly, this information doesn't get buried in Slack or Google Drive.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still a ton of information to navigate. Getting to what you need can still be a bit clunky at times. If people don't update the relevant information, you can work off of outdated info as well. As useful as it is, it can become a bit overwhelming as the content scales. Getting current information, like in any repository, can be difficult at times. Outdated notes or stale plans are counterproductive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion acts as a shared workspace for organizing company resources. Its AI search tool is invaluable for locating information, saving us time and avoiding confusion. It helps navigate company policies and prevents data loss that happens with tools like Slack. However, navigating the vast information can be challenging if it's not updated properly.
Versatile Tool with Customization and AI Support
What do you like best about the product?
I love Notion for its ability to sort, customize, and streamline everything. It helps with writing problems because of the AI feature. I use Notion for school work and assignment organization, to-do lists, productivity trackers, and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was more assistance for the databases. It can get confusing and it would be nice to have a help feature or the AI assistant to help with issues like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is great for school work, to-do lists, and productivity trackers. I love its ability to sort, customize, and streamline everything.
Flexible, All-in-One Workspace with Smooth Organization and Helpful AI
What do you like best about the product?
Honestly, it's how well Notion handles different types of data in one place. I can drag and drop content around, nest pages inside pages, and everything just... works. The pagination is smooth, and I never feel like I'm fighting the tool to organize things my way.
The AI features have been super useful too — especially being able to convert content from one format to another. Like if I've written out a paragraph and realize it would make more sense as a table, I can just ask Notion AI to do it. Small thing, but it saves me a lot of manual reformatting.
I also use Notion a ton for public pages — sharing docs, resources, that kind of thing. It's become my go-to for anything I need to publish quickly.
Basically, it fits how I work instead of forcing me into some rigid structure.

Basically, it fits how I work instead of forcing me into some rigid structure.
What do you dislike about the product?
Search. Finding specific information can be a real pain, especially when you've got a lot of nested pages and databases. You kind of have to remember where you put things, which defeats the purpose sometimes.
The AI search/Q&A feature helps with this — it can dig through your workspace and find stuff — but it's noticeably slow. When you're in the middle of something and just need a quick answer, waiting around for it to load breaks your flow.
Not a dealbreaker, but definitely the one area I wish they'd improve.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Honestly, it's just become the place where all our company info lives. Before this, stuff was all over the place — some things in Google Docs, some in spreadsheets, some just stuck in someone's Slack DMs. Nobody ever knew which version was the latest or where to look.
Now if anyone needs something, they check Notion first. That's it. Onboarding new people has gotten way easier too because they can just browse through everything themselves instead of asking a million questions.
Less "where's that document?" pings. Less repeated explanations. It's simple but it actually works.
