Notion has changed my expectations for all future documentation tools
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to hand craft everything I'm needing at this current time, live in a document, with just my keyboard is a phenomenal experience. Being able to create a new dataset in a table, visualize it as a calendar, drill down by custom properties, and link that same database inside another document? Life changing features.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I'd say my number one benefit of Notion is keyboard controls, it struggles to provide the same comfort to regular users. People who aren't as keyboard savvy are often asking how to do things, and I show them via keyboard shortcut. It's not truly accessible to everyone in its current state.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're now using Notion for our entire project, aside from real time conversations in slack. We organize all our documentation, calendars, and project planning inside of Notion.
We have a kanban style board with all our work, drilled down into several custom views for ease of use. Being able to browse projects by bugs, tasks, epics, assignee is awesome. Each user can also make a private page, and embed custom tables for themselves. They're now able to create personalized trello boards and micromanage their tasks in their own way.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use color/icons a lot in notion. It will make you feel excited both to create a document, but also to own it. You really appreciate the things you create in Notion.
University student using notion for studying
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is user friendly and there is a clean and attractive design. I really enjoy the ease of adding pages and the intuitiveness of the program.
What do you dislike about the product?
No option for me to sort pages in notebooks, the grouping system can be advanced upon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using notion to organize different aspects of my life into one main hub, instead of having several notes on different activities scattered in different apps. I also use notion to study for exams through active recall.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep it organized and avoid cluttering your dashboard
Notion is the best tool for me to organize all internal team assets, notes, and project management!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is for me to start a new document and use all of their available templates for me to go off of.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how there isn't a better guide for using their "shortcuts" for using templates and things like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefits seem to be endless. I'm able to keep my notes neatly organized as well as complete projects on time with the help of Notion.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to really explore all of the available features and use Dark Mode!
Notion: a game-changer for content management
What do you like best about the product?
Uh oh. This feels like an Evernote/Dropbox/Asana killer. Notion feels like a Slack channel for personal productivity. Its easy to use, intuitive, design-friendly user interface makes it a breeze to setup different templates for different projects. No more clunky switching between multiple systems to get work done, Notion feels more like an all-in-one content system due to their clever links and relational databases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Don't see a downside yet. Very easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm only a few weeks into using Notion, but already seeing huge increases in work productivity. Notion excels at managing/organizing/assigning/scheduling notes, blog posts, content calendars, schedules, research projects, and seriously considering dropping my paid subscriptions for other services like Dropbox and Evernote.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check out the ready-made templates to get started quicker!
Robust
What do you like best about the product?
The best of notion is its practicality and ability to meet different scenarios. There are several templates, which aids different needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion's downside for me is its edit mode. Who has edit access just clicks and edits like in a document and this can sometimes create some mess.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enterprise Wiki: Its full range of templates make it easy for you to make the necessary company documentation.
Ideal note application
What do you like best about the product?
Honestly, notion works like a charm. In my company we use Notion to build documentations easily with their default styles. It's really fast and collaborative.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dark mode is frustrating to enable and quite regularly it changes back to the white screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We create documentation, project notes, quick notes and almost everything within the team. We also use Google Drive embedding feature and also Trello importing.
One of my favorite apps
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is an incredibly user-centric app that is very intuitive to use. I love the toggle option and the tables especially, but it is generally just one of the best apps I have used for day-to-day work and organization. Also, the customer service is really excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly there is nothing that I particularly dislike about this app. Every time I think of a new feature that would be useful they come out with it a few months later. I am confident that the longer the app is around the better it will continue to become.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enables me to keep track of everything I'm doing, and actually do the work all in one place. It's very easy to collaborate too, which is wonderful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Getting started with notion can have a slight learning curve, but once you learn the basics, getting the most out of Notion is quite intuitive. It will save you so much time and effort in the future!
Notion is amazing for internal wiki & notes
What do you like best about the product?
I love that notion is so customizable & easy to use once you get the hang of it. It’s like my second brain and I store everything I can into it so that I don’t have to remember it in my head. Highly recommend you check it out!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more 3rd party integrations that I could connect & integrate with Notion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management. Note taking. Internal wiki. SOP’s. The benefits are endless. Notion is my second brain and I store everything in there from business to personal items
Notion can be whatever you want it to be!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is incredibly versatile. Which style of productivity app do you like best: kanban style, spreadsheet, old fashioned checklist? Notion can do them all--at the same time! The best thing about Notion is that you configure it yourself so you get exactly what you want. There are plenty of useful templates available so you don't have to start from nothing, unless you want to build it all yourself.
There's a bit of a learning curve. But there is plenty of help available. It can be suited to any industry. It's fairly simple to use.

What do you dislike about the product?
Ok, the tricky part is getting started. There are plenty of tutorials and videos to help you out. But, when you first log in to Notion, it's a clean slate. So there is some set up time involved. But I think it's worth it because you get exactly what you want. And you can always use one of the templates provided.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for everything. It's a task master with a big kanban style project manager dashboard. I wear a lot of hats and by using one master board with several other project focused boards I can keep track of what needs to be done. I also use it as a content calendar. I keep important documents embedded in it so I have easy access to them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Stick with it. After the initial time investment, it's worth it. Use the templates provided. They cover most scenarios. You only have to put in your parameters and labels and you're good to go!
Project Management is easy because of Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I love all the tables and charts that I can make on Notion. It is easy as well as makes it better for me to manage my content.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not so much of dislike but there are a lot of short cuts that are difficult to remember. More drop-down menu might help with that better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project Management and content management. It helps me stay organized and stay up to date.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great tool for content management for an organization.
