What do you like best about the product?

It's where I'm able to store everything I need from myriad sources. Example, when I'm booking speaking gigs, I can grab the text from an email and paste it to a database, add all the travel info, and then embed maps, add the URL for the event, and keep all my speaking-related content in one place. I love it.

What do you dislike about the product?

Having offline access would be really helpful when traveling.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Instead of having to search through email or search through folders to find what I need, everything is in one place. The AI writing assistant has saved me a ton of time in building databases from simple prompts as well.

What do you like best about the product?

It helps keep team documentation structured, organized and standardized.

What do you dislike about the product?

At times it is difficult to find what you're looking for.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Organization and standardization of process documentation

What do you like best about the product?

I find that Notion stands out as a highly customizable and visually appealing workspace, offering a range of organizational tools that support both my personal workflow and our team’s productivity. I really appreciate its flexibility—it lets me structure pages in multiple ways, like using nested pages, tables, and kanban boards. It's easy to navigate, and I love being able to embed content from one page into another, which makes it ideal for building comprehensive, interconnected resources. The clean and intuitive interface also helps our team stay aligned without the clutter that comes with more traditional documentation tools.

What do you dislike about the product?

I’ve found that Notion does come with a bit of a learning curve, especially when it comes to more advanced features like relational databases. I've struggled with trying to connect entries across multiple databases or sheets, which can be frustrating when managing more complex workflows. The formatting can also be restrictive at times—I’ve run into issues with unexpected locks or trouble figuring out how to reformat things the way I want. While I appreciate how customizable Notion is, really mastering all of its features takes time and patience, which can be challenging when I'm looking for quick, straightforward solutions.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

For me, Notion serves as a powerful internal solution by acting as both a centralized knowledge base and a collaboration hub for our team. It helps me consolidate scattered information into one organized space where I can easily access documentation, project plans, meeting notes, and shared resources. I really value the real-time editing, the ability to embed content, and how seamlessly pages can link to one another—it’s been a huge help in breaking down silos and improving collaboration across teams. It ensures that important knowledge isn’t just stored, but is easy to find and stays up to date, which makes our workflows a lot more transparent and efficient.

What do you like best about the product?

Notion can be used for a diversity of tasks and purposes! I use it in my professional life and that made me want to start using it in my personal life!
databases are my favorite because it makes anything easy to track and organize! from budget to workflows to tracking how much water I drink daily! When i first started using notion about 5 months ago, I had no prior experience, and now I use it every day and feel like a pro!

What do you dislike about the product?

i use a lot of automations in Notion which is super helpful! but i did notice that building the automations is not the most user friendly or intuitive. there is a way to work around that and learn how the system works, but it takes some time

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

trackability. Notion does wonders for tracking different types of workflows or even just tasks in my daily life! automations on my enterprise account are hugeee time saver and make everything super clear and concise. we have automations for meeting agendas and tasks. we also have automations for identifying types of data.

What do you like best about the product?

Easy navigation and search through the platform

What do you dislike about the product?

Currently no way to draw diagrams (I require a lof of design diagrams to be on my documentation and current use another tool and copy paste a screenshot)

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

One stop shop for an enterprise to read through documentation and have a knowledge transfer of tools/services

What do you like best about the product?

I like using Notion for building searchable databases with multiple views. I also think Notion has the best branding out there, but unfortunately the product doesn't live up to the branding for me.

What do you dislike about the product?

I hate how difficult it is to find tools in Notion. Things I can do in one click from the toolbar in Google docs takes me so many more steps in Notion — except for the few tasks I've done enough to figure out their hotkeys. I spend more time googling and asking ChatGPT if Notion can do things and how to then do those things than I spend on my actual content, and that feels like a dealbreaker. I find building and using tables and databases extremely frustrating as well. In theory, it seems like you can make those things more elegant and versatile than they are in Google sheets, but again, I spend more time trying to figure out how to build those things than I do on the things I'm building them for.

I've been using Notion daily for work for the last two years, and I still feel lost in there every time I have to make anything from scratch. Perhaps if I was making tables in there everyday, I'd feel more confident, but I'm not, and so while that's the one thing I especially like using in Notion, it's still a frustrating and confusing process everytime I go to make a new table or database in Notion and there's only been one instance where I've been completely happy with how all the fields turned out. In most cases I have fields or columns that feel like a major compromise.

I also don't like how limited it is on font sizes, styles and highlight colors. I know that makes documents look cleaner in the end, but I find it more difficult to flag things and mark things because of that. And even something as simple as choosing a text style feels confusing since the headline options are separate from the highlight options. I often feel like I'm fighting with Notion even when writing up a simple, straightforward document.

If I didn't have to use Notion for work, I wouldn't use it. It feels like it's style over substance, and I much prefer just using something simpler like Google Docs and Sheets, even if they aren't as fashionable.

And fwiw, I'm a video editor and producer. I can't code and sometimes can't figure out how to reset my wifi, but I use multiple editing platforms and generally find that I pick up software faster than most. I also love making spreadsheets and getting organized, but unfortunately something has never clicked with me and Notion, and I just feel lost, stupid and stuck when I have to create anything in there.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Notion as a knowledge base at my company. It is nice for that. But as I mentioned in my general feedback, it doesn't feel like it's worth it for how difficult it is to use.

What do you like best about the product?

I love of flexible and organized it is and how I can integrate it with the canvas software very easily.

What do you dislike about the product?

There is a steep learning curve with Notion, but I think it's necessary so there can be so many uses for it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It organizes my schedule or notes and can turn those notes into flashcards.

What do you like best about the product?

• I love the organization of Notion and the sub-pages ability.
• I love the existing type styling
• The databases' properties that show up within an item's page is very useful
• The collaborative of Notion is great in comparison to some other documentation tools

What do you dislike about the product?

• I dislike how hard it is to use databases: the items within databases cannot be moved to another database, once it's a full page database it's not intuitive to change it to an inline-database
• Sometimes it Notion feels clunky (the UX interactions, e.g. moving 1 text chunk to a difference column)
• I wish Notion had more styling capabilities (e.g. being able to add bullet points or images into tables, being able to adjust cell padding when I add another column)
• I do not need AI in Notion, I find it quite upsetting and useless

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

• I often need a centralized place to store information and Notion is my first choice, then GSuite (the share function's UX is a lot nicer than Google Docs)
• Being able to upload PDFs, Figma links, preview various images is incredibly useful for meeting notes

What do you like best about the product?

The simplicity and cleanliness. It just looks much better than Google Docs.

What do you dislike about the product?

The lack of options sometimes kills me. For instance, I'd like to use my own fonts, but I can't.

also, the table element could be done in a much better way.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Notion for our company is solving the project of having our knowledge consolidated in one place.

Before, we used to use Google Docs, but that didn't soolve the problemn well.

What do you like best about the product?

I really love being able to make both private and public content in Notion. It's easy to see change history over time and revert previous versions. It's also really flexible in use with options to create a table of pages, integrate with other systems, and has a lot of really great out of the box functions like formatting and data types you can use.

We use Notion as our core document repository for product documentation and even use it for our own person use like task tracking and 1:1 notes.

What do you dislike about the product?

With our large volume of documentation in Notion, it can be hard to search for content at times. Optimizing titles is really important when there are 1000s of pages to search through.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Great knowledge base platform that is accessible to all users and allows for collaboration across teams
