The all in one simple database solution for life admining.
What do you like best about the product?
I've used notes on my iPhone alongside Notion for a few years now because Notes is just a bit simpler and quicker than getting into Notion. Recently, however, I had an issue with my Notes app where I couldn't sync it to another family member's account. Right then, I decided to bite the bullet and transfer everything over to Notion. I requested my data download from iCloud, and I'm waiting for the data to come through so I can put it on a Notion Subpage.
One simple sub-page is enough for ALL of my iPhone notes.
I once used Nontion as project management software to host an 80-person virtual retreat over the pandemic, which supplied our organization with a free multi-user pro account.
I use Notion to host a recipe blog.
I use Notion to write my substack blog.
I use Notion as a contact tracker to keep in touch with people in my spiritual community.
When I have information I want to share with people, I can organize it in Notion tables and show people graphically/visually what I want them to see.
I don't need to code anything to make all of this happen; I've stopped using my Elementor and WordPress because Notion, in combination with my Substack blog, is all I need to publish my content.
I even use Notion for E-commerce, whereby I put a list of ingredients and offer customers an opportunity to buy my recipes and then make slick little callout links for people to click on to purchase either the recipe or buy my teaching. The links go to a stripe site, and BAM I now have a Notion-based e-commerce site.

What do you dislike about the product?
Please make it so that I can share portions of tables/databases without the person I'm sharing the part of the database with able to see the entire database. This is the only thing that bothers me about Notion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have designed websites in wordpress with Elementor; I don't need to do that anymore. Notion, in combination with a Substack Blog, has eliminated my need to design a website for a recent business I've started. I every time I think about designing a new website for this business I ask myself, could Notion do that? And while not every solution has been perfect, it has worked and is much simpler than designing something for WordPress.
I fell in love with Notion
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is extremely flexible and provides the needed features to adjust your workspace to your needs within your individual workflows.
I tested plenty of other tools like Trello, Asana and other. But I always ended spending more time switching between tools than actually working on my tasks.
Notion helped me to organize my projects in an effective way. So I started to implement it with my clients as well.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are just few minor features missing. However, I see that the team is constantly working on fulfilling user needs and keeps on listening to their growing and engaged user community.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps to organize all the information that I am co fronted with during the day. Very useful are the Webbrowser extensions and integrations. These are helping me to import and categorize the information and link it within my projects.
From "what a convenient tool" to "this is indispensable for my job" in two months.
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is the perfect framework to build the precise tool you need, whatever your level of skill. And whatever you build now, you can improve and omptimise later on. I literally couldn't do my job if I didn't have the ability to reference any and every material I've created -- and it's all in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion has its own learning curve -- nothing too scary. If anything, once you learn the basics you're more likely to overcomplicate things. So, remember: just becase you can do it doesn't mean you should!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm a freelance teacher. I need to keep my books, create lesson plans, create homework materials (which should be reusable and thus referenceable), organise schedules, keep track of student information, etc. Notion allows me to focus on work, rather than juggling 5+ pieces of software.
We are creating our Company Wiki (and all the notes) in Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I can put in order all my ideas in. Currently, we are creating a Wiki where we are documenting all the processes storing videos, and podcast links,...
We can work with any kind of document: images, Gantt, docs, tables,...

What do you dislike about the product?
The Referral program. I'd like Notion had a referral program like Airtable. I've recommended Notion to a lot of friends and colleagues with no rewards or very low rewards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the first time that I feel I can put all my thoughts in order. I can kind of documents and I can connect between them. Until using Notion, I had a lot of spreadsheets and gdocs that I finally stopped working with.
My favorite software of all time!
What do you like best about the product?
It is like Legos, but for information. You can build whatever you need and improve it over time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be hard to get others (particularly volunteers) to use Notion as they can be overwhelmed at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me organize all sorts of information - for my business, my church, and my personal life
The product you NEED to organize (literally) everything
What do you like best about the product?
I absolutely love how it uses databases to organize items. What this means (for you new users out there) that you can organize all of your notes (personal or business), your tasks (to dos, project tasks), and any other information in an easily accessible way!
I am currently using Notion as a second brain. Literally as a SECOND brain. It's my idea dump, my project manager, my to do list manager, my personal wiki. Everything that I think of or need to put on 'paper' gets put into Notion.
Honestly switching from Evernote was the best thing I could have done for my personal and business productivity.

What do you dislike about the product?
At first, Notion can SEEM overwhelming. And in my experience, I felt there were to many features to consider and quite honestly, I didn't really know where to start. But let me say... don't let this hold you back. Keep playing with it and you'll pick it up in less than a day.
If you need a starting point, just use it as a simple note taker! Then explore it's various features slowly over time. You really can't go wrong taking this approach — as you can always go back to implement any functionality that you need later.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I would say that the biggest problem Notion has solved for me, is allow me to CONSOLIDATE all of my tasks and notes and ideas into one place. Before Notion, I had to use 5-6 different applications to organize these things. And the worst part was that these apps did NOT integrate or communicate with each other.
Notion allows you to link pages, so that you have one cohesive system. It makes my life so much easier.
... oh and I should mention that if you're a content creator / writer — they just introduced an AI writer to cut your creative process in half! And absolute game-changer.

Planning and organizing are my passions so this tool was a welcome addition to my workstation.
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has replaced my planner, my idea notebook and my content management system.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's lots of features and quite a learning curve!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before using Notion, my work was spread out all over the place. I have never before been as organized as I am now using Notion.
Changed my life
What do you like best about the product?
The minimalistic approach to everything. Reusable blocks. Speed. Everything is just amazing. Plus, the ability to quickly share the documents is on another level.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I do not like about Notion is not being able to use my own domain name for sharing. It has to be with notion.so prefix which is annoying because I have to share these links to my enterprise customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every process is our company is being documented on Notion. Our SOPs are all aligned and team is super productive while following these procedures. Plus, the whole team is on the same organization.
Organization Haven for people with ADHD
What do you like best about the product?
I have a lot of ideas, and Notion has a lot of ways to get my many visions documented in an orderly fashion!
What do you dislike about the product?
Eh, I'm not a superuser just yet, but when I am confronted with a challenge, trust me - I will let you guys know (coming from a Product Manager).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything is everywhere all at once. I use Notion to organize my thoughts and projects / tasks.
There's nothing else like it
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has a unique approach to note-taking, striking a perfect balance between depth and ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the simplicity of Notion holds you back when you need that extra inch of customization, for instance changing the font on a block of text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Databases tend to be very inflexible in their structure. Notion adds that flexibility without adding complexity.
