Notion - An amazing tool to organize your tasks, as well as documentation

  • January 09, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There's a lot to like about Notion. The Clean UI, the streamless search across the whole workspace, ease of linking and mentioning things.
I use Notion for task management for myself as well as my team and documenting our work as well; and we've found it to be a really powerful tool for the same
What do you dislike about the product?
In terms of dislikes, there arent too many. Sometimes there are a few bugs, like for example right now, the move option for pages isn't working too greatly. Also, a few features take a long time to develop after multiple requests are submitted, like the toggle headings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We majorly use Notion for work management and documenting development as well as results. Notion has allowed us to have a unified way of making tasks, providing updates on them, and use the same updates as documentation for later reference. This helps in keeping things de-cluttered, and still having everything connected.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before on-boarding your team onto Notion, do a pilot run with a small bunch. Test out the different features, set up the right layouts and views etc for things you wish to roll out to the whole team. This will be greatly helpful in the longer run.

The best tool for taking notes and keeping the team in sync.

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion has a ton of flexibility and is easy to learn, but there's so much that you can create and organize for pretty much any type of use case. The interface is really easy to navigate and the templates are top notch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes things don't sync right away. A few times, we've had notes not saved because they don't sync correctly, and the app will crash or something. It's infrequent, though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool has been integral for sharing notes and organizing project notes and requirements between several teams. The ease of use between the desktop and mobile app makes it a convenient place to keep all of this.

Notion for Individual and Team Organization

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is incredibly versatile - from individual notetaking to team collaboration across databases and project management at scale, Notion can be adapted to the needs of your team. Notion takes the best of cloud-based collaborative document writing and builds around it a suite of tools allowing for a vast array of applications. For me the most impressive aspect is how simply they are able to keep the interface while allowing for an ever-expanding list of options such as databases, kanban, and other project management tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's really very little to dislike, especially given the rate at which Notion's developers have been turning out improvements, fixes, and updates. I would prefer a bit cleaner login/credentialing across devices as I will be logged out from time to time, but this is a minor frustration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion equips my collaboration within and across teams at my institution, and i personally use it to manage the Center I direct. This allows me to handle all project management, external sharing of resources, and collaborative document creation. It is the closest thing i've ever come across to a one-stop solution.

Great for sharing project updates and for making simple landing pages.

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is so easy to use. There is so much flexibility setting up pages. It is easy to make things look really nice. Managing permissions is a breeze too. I like how you can make different views of the same dataset.

Embeds are king! It is so easy to embed other tools and sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
The database functionality just doesn't feel great. In conjunction with Notion I use Airtable for a lot of things. The database features of Notion just feel clunky compared to Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most landing pages. Whenever I have a situation where I need to get data to a cohort of people I will setup a page for just that cohort. The simplicity of Notion allows me to handle all the details without needing to involve our web folks.

We also have built out our standard operating procedures for our program in Notion.


    Staffing and Recruiting

New standard for a single workplace solution

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's su[er flexible and seems to really be able to do the job of a bunch of different tools. Not only does it serve as a database but can work as a project management tool, as a complex business process automation solution, and a lot more.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is pretty steep. It is very slow compared to more simple tools. If I need to write something down it's way easier to open a new google doc. Formating is not too intuitive at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use at as a database and to create simple PM tools for the small teams, essentially instead of Trello. We became way more productive and we'll be even more so when the whole team become adapted to the system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You'll be able to get immense benefits out of it but don't fool yourself that proficiency would come naturally. Invest in training.

Great software to use for companies that need all company manifestos stored in one!

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can click on "articles and files" and you will have access to all the documents on specific subjects. Really helpful for startups!
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be confusing because the order is; however, the user posts and can be confusing when creating threads with info.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Company Manifestos.
Mission
Great way to have new hires read all company deets
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ask the company, what the order of the information, should be, and what needs to be added or changed so you can get updated information.

Super powerful, yet lightweight productivity booster

  • January 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like Notion's UX. It's a super lightweight interface, but the amount of things you can do with Notion is limitless. I use it for both work (content, CRM, databases) and personal life (journaling, tracking, task management).
What do you dislike about the product?
If I have to think of something, I would probably say the number of templates. Other than that, it's perfect
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing various types of content and creating smart links between pages/DBs. It helped me store so much important information in an easy-to-find way and keep it dynamically updated.

Price is a bit high, but it does a lot and they don't manage your storage at least.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My main use of Notion is to create a personal knowledge wiki.
