Centralized Note-Taking with Seamless AI Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Notion solved my disaggregated notes problem and lets me keep any-source notes all in one place. I appreciate the ease of their AI bot and the ability to plug in and cross-query among different sources. The initial setup was very easy for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the explanation of the features challenging if they've never been used before. It would be helpful to have some suggestions or hotkeys over some time span as a user account gets set up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solved disaggregated notes by allowing me to have notes from any source in one place.
Amazing AI Search and Organization, but Desktop App Updates Are Frustrating
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it keeps everything accessible and organized across our company. And the AI search is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
I face a lot of issues with the desktop app. It has updates what feels like daily, and it feels like the platofrom is better optimized for the web.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion makes it easy to find and share important information across our company, especially when it needs to be siloed.
One-Stop Productivity Powerhouse Boosting Efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Notion helps streamline my work processes and find shortcuts, making daily tasks more efficient. It’s been great for personal use too, like creating lists and travel itineraries. The AI features are fantastic for editing my resume and detailing my tasks at work better than I could on my own. Notion is very accessible and easy to learn, with a learning curve that's not difficult at all. It combines features from other productivity apps, eliminating the need to switch between programs, which I really enjoy. Notion is like a one-stop-shop for many tasks, making it quite valuable and enjoyable to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
With Notion, the only issues I think I've run across is that using the AI feature to jazz up a document by adding emojis or different coloring patterns, a lot of times, it doesn't grab everything that I needed to do. So probably something I would want to have improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to streamline my work processes and daily tasks, making everything more efficient. It's invaluable for updating my resume since it organizes and enhances job details. Not having to switch between different programs for tasks makes it a one-stop shop for me.
Versatile and Customizable Platform with AI Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I love Notion's flexibility for building projects and customizing views, making it a living document that's very adaptable. Notion AI is great, especially for onboarding new joiners and supporting knowledge sharing and governance. I also love how customizable it is, which makes it easy to tailor it to our specific needs. Having easy access to information, not just within Notion but across our entire knowledge architecture, is incredibly useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there's quite a big knowledge gap for people starting to use Notion that can make it intimidating. Also making it easier to make templates for other teams to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion offers a flexible way to build projects, customize views, and maintain a living document. It supports knowledge sharing and governance with Notion AI, making information easily accessible across our knowledge architecture.
Highly Customizable, Team Management Solution
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate Notion's high level of customization and the variety of features and automations that make it easy to handle a wide range of tasks. The task management capabilities are great, and I love having centralized documentation. There's a lot of flexibility with how sections can be organized and what they can include. I also find it helpful to link previews and customize fields for each task, allowing me to adapt the setup depending on whether it's a creative task or something like an audience update. Being able to have everything in one platform, and with more ability to customize, emphasizes Notion's value over other platforms I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
The level of customization leaves a lot of deep menus within menus and it's really hard to find certain things. There's so many hidden features and contextual places you'd need to click or highlight in order to pull up certain actions. Having a larger toolbar would be amazing to help organize actions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for task organization, team management, and process automation. It solves problems around organization, visibility, and workflow. It offers great task management, centralized docs, and customizable fields, allowing for a versatile and streamlined platform.
Effortless Navigation and Superb AI Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I think the interface is pretty good. I also really like the Notion AI, especially for meetings and transcribing them, which is super helpful for sales calls. I can look back on them, and they're really great for follow-ups when I'm talking to people after I'm on the call with them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the AI takes a minute to generate the response. It's not super, super fast compared to other models I've used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for easy access to internal resources and training. Notion AI helps locate information quickly by answering questions and directing me to the right place, which is great.
Intuitive Organization, Slight Export Limitations
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the most about Notion is that you can keep all your documents very organized, and you can customize with different colors and items. So it is really fun to have your own personalized documents. I like organizing my documents, and just by typing command F, I'm able to find the documents according to the word I searched for. This is very helpful because whenever I'm rushing, I need my search to be time-effective, and Notion does a great job working kind of like a database. The customization of the boards is really fun because when I share it with colleagues, they're able to notice that it's different because I have customized it to my style. I also like to synchronize it with my Slack account so my leaders have access to my Notion boards. It was very easy to get started with Notion, as the intuitive setup made it clear where to go, how to create boards, and the help page was very helpful for understanding where to start.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think what could be improved is how the view works. Because whenever you have a large document, it becomes a bit difficult to navigate through the entire board. For example, right now, I have a huge tracker, and I have to minimize the view of the entire page to track things. So that could become a problem if you're presenting your screen. I will consider a problem is that you can't really export any of the boards you create. For example, you cannot transform it into a deck.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me organize all my documents effectively and works like a database. It allows fun customization, making documents personalized and recognizable to colleagues.
Highly Flexible, But Steep Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I really love the flexibility that Notion allows. It's not just a task management tool or a project management tool, but you can do all of the above. I also really love the nested pages feature, so you can keep getting deeper without breaking the organizational structure. The flexibility of being able to create whatever I want and make changes as needed is really nice. I find that I stopped using a lot of other SaaS tools because they limit me to one particular way. With Notion, it's like being able to write in your notebook and draw whatever you need. The nested pages let you start with a clean interface, then go deeper into more complex stores of information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a lot is really done well in Notion, so it's hard for me to pick out major issues. But, there's this one small thing: I couldn't rotate an image 90 degrees and had to input it with the correct orientation from the start. It's a minor thing and kind of nitpicky. Also, the initial setup wasn't so easy. I ended up taking a course not provided by Notion. The database relation tool and roll up aren't the most intuitive, and there's definitely a learning curve because there's so much information and features to get comfortable with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to manage complex information, storing it so it's easily retrievable and organized. I love its flexibility, allowing me to consolidate multiple tools into one, and the nested pages feature lets me explore deeper information without losing structure.
Efficient, Customizable, With a Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion for organizing thoughts, planning future projects, and transcribing meetings. I like most that it searches my database and learns from the things I've put into it, constantly referencing ideas and thoughts that I haven't shared, rather than things from the Internet. It allows me to save a lot of time by referencing back thoughts I've already had, avoiding redoing work, and displays a summary which creates a plan of action, which is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe, like anything, there's a learning curve that you have to get through. Not knowing how to make it do the things that I can do in other systems as easily. I don't know if there could be improvements because the interface is different. Unless your interface looked like others. If the email function looked more like Spark Mail or Gmail, or if it looked like Google Docs. If the buttons were in the same place, if they were called the same thing, that's the only thing that can make it more user friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for organizing thoughts, planning projects, and transcribing meetings. It quickly aggregates data, points me in the right direction, helps me think through ideas, keeps my calendar straight, and acts as a central data hub.
Endless Options and Integrations That Deliver
What do you like best about the product?
The endless amount of options you have to do on it and the amount of integrations it has to offer.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very technical and not easy for people that are not tech savvy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps with organization of our company knowledge base and SOPs.
