Notion: a review
What do you like best about the product?
The UI / UX is nice. Features I enjoy: collaboration, markdown, desktop app, templates, icons, plugins, organization, breadcrumbs, and notifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be confusing / too powerful at times. I can easily get into situations I did not mean to be in. Example: deleting a template or whole directory.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Top 2 are knowledge base and project management.
the Ai function made me consider leaving my 9-5 and freelancing as a copywriter and buying Notion
What do you like best about the product?
It's intuitive when building and creating notion pages for colleagues that explain and elaborate on decision making processes and project management.
It allows me complete transparency and to absorb as much information as my colleagues are prepared to share

What do you dislike about the product?
the deep structure makes linking seemingly disconnected projects.
this makes collaboration a bit more difficult and means that linking to notions is sometimes unintuitive and if there isn't an agreed structure and "home" for projects, Notion page management will get out of hand

AI Writing Assistant
What do you like best about the product?
It is useful for all parts of our business. We use Notion for finances and reports, HR, timesheet management, user research, and templates. We haven't found any tools to do the same job - so not sure how it compares to competitors. I am trialling the AI writing assistant and it is extremely useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
We started creating many databases and noticed a significant drop in performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a database where we can manage invoices, timesheets, and performance, uncover relationships and trends and develop templates which allows us to be more efficient.
Notion AI is an Awesome tool for teachers!
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to create engaging pages for students, filled with enriching multimedia that helps appeal to all types of learners. Compared with conventional assignments, I also love that with Notion I can easily provide updates that only require students to reload the page! Moreover, the AI Writing Assistant helps create rubrics and build assignments similar to others. What an awesome tool!
What do you dislike about the product?
I really wish that there was an easy Canvas integration with Notion. On occasion, i have trouble integrating some of the tools in Notion. Also, I'm not fond of the links as they are long and include random words, but that might be my free version coming out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me integrate helpful multimedia, and especially code snippets, into pages that I share with my class to build engaging and easy to follow assignments.
Increased Automation
What do you like best about the product?
Organization of my thoughts that are easily searchable.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times it can be overwhelming just how customizable it is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
recording and organizing notes and thoughts while automating my writing.
Good overall, not sure it's worth $10 a month.
What do you like best about the product?
I have found that utilizing Notion AI greatly enhances my writing abilities. I appreciate the ease of typing out my thoughts on a particular idea and then utilizing the AI to swiftly refine and polish my work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found it challenging to ask Notion AI questions individually. I noticed that when I attempted to give it a task or ask a question, it often provided an incorrect response because it was referencing information from the page that was unrelated to my inquiry.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my experience, Notion AI has been excellent for creating a knowledge base. I appreciate being able to request information on a topic and have it seamlessly integrated into my notes. While I have found ChatGPT to be comparable in some cases, I often choose Notion AI because it is already integrated into the platform and saves me time. Additionally, Notion AI has helped enhance my writing by providing brainstorming ideas and improving upon my existing content. However, I only implement the AI's suggestions about 60-70% of the time.
Notion as a second brain
What do you like best about the product?
I'm using Notion as a second brain and I find that it has many strengths. One of the biggest advantages is its flexibility and customizability. I can create different types of content such as databases, notes, and to-do lists, and organize them in a way that makes sense for me. This makes it easy to keep track of my personal and professional information all in one place. Additionally, I appreciate that it's accessible from any device with an internet connection, so I can access my notes and ideas from anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some weaknesses to Notion. One issue is that it can be slow at times, which can be frustrating when I'm trying to access or update information quickly. Additionally, one of the most important weaknesses is that Notion is not fully functional when working offline. This can be a problem if I need to access my notes or data in an area without reliable internet access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion saves me the trouble of thinking about where to take my notes. It serves as my note-taking, writing, project management, meeting notes, and even diary portal. One of the biggest benefits is its flexibility and customizability, which allows me to organize my personal and professional information all in one place. Additionally, the artificial intelligence feature helps me to rewrite and correct grammatical errors. While there are some missing points of AI, such as giving wrong answers sometimes, I believe it will improve in the near future.
AI Writing Assistant
What do you like best about the product?
Quickly generates a foundation from which I can add to/adjust as I see fit. This speeds up my daily work flow, especially in relation to general admin in the company.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to manage databases and have full autonomy regarding automation. The fact that there is no audit trail is also a concern for any data being stored in the company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Speeds up daily workflow. Takes short prompts and turns them into a workable paltfrom for me to add meat to the bone. Not something I would use for important docs or very technical writing but certainly for the odd internal communication.
Great tool when stuck!
What do you like best about the product?
I use notion to help draft papers for both school and work. I love how easy it is to have AI write stuff for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that i have to create a page for everything but it is helpful when i want to save the information it provides
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me draft responses and papers
