Notion made me a better team leader
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to share pages with people. I also love how you can put something on the page as a reference, and if the person doesn't have access, they won't even know it's there.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside of Notion is you have to have an internet connection in order for it to work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me improve my own note taking, self thoughts, projects and managing people. It's helping my team build a better communication of our projects and clients. It makes working together as a team a little easier.
I use Notion for productivity journaling
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can put a to-do list - or any list - anywhere in my journal, then reference it elsewhere. That way, I don't have to search back through my journal or have a special place for the list.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dates and times I embed in my journal entry (with /date) always default to a 12-hour format, and I like them in a 24-hour format. I would like to see Notion remember my setting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a full-stack developer working on a large project, Notion helps me focus on one thing at a time until it's done to specifications - or just the way I like it.
I love Notion for how it helps me organize my life
What do you like best about the product?
Several things make Notion stand out for me. It has a lot of features, a stylish yet minimalistic design, is optimized, and it has good technical support. I can say that Notion is among the tools that help me organize my life the most. The recent Beta Notion AI also helped me improve university assignments and some emails. I have been using Notion for about three years now, and I love it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Paid Notion plans are quite expensive for people from countries less wealthy than the US.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Tracking and managing personal projects
- Saving personal notes
- Organizing notes
It helps me be significantly more organized and productive.

Near perfect note taking app
What do you like best about the product?
Notion lets you customize how you use it
You can have page with checklists, toggle list (expand/collapse), clean interface on desktop version, tables,filters. It does basically ecerything. And it syncs across your devices.

Clearing mental clutter, organizing ideas and tasks
Nothing short of a breakthrough in data organisation
What do you like best about the product?
The rich list of visual editing options and markdown for better readability. How text looks is the basis of any collaboration project or even plain idea storage.
Potent database engine for storing various types of data and representing different scopes.
A magnificent way of showing other people's edits for the page.

A magnificent way of showing other people's edits for the page.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have more options for the default look and behavior of pages, such as: pages in full width (togglable, but default us off), wrapping multiline content of a database cell in table view (on by default), but most of all, the Date fields are missing option to be filled relative to the date of page creation, when using Templates automation to create pages on schedule.
Oh, and I almost forgot... I have to admit that the learning curve for using advanced features is pretty steep. It was easy for me because of my significant experience with data processing and different sorts of software.
Not adding Russian, Ukranian and other languages. It's strange because Notion does not have many keywords to translate. You could first let people use the primary interface in their language and LATER add Help pages translated because help pages are not as essential as being able to use the interface in the language your friends and colleagues speak.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Notion helped me to organize my information. I know that the Wiki format (hierarchy of pages) has existed for a long time, but Notion made text editing and document creation very intuitive. It was effortless to start, and once you began to - it became even much easier to continue adding and adding more to your Notion.
The Notion does an excellent job for collaboration. The tool for sharing specific pages or "categories" is lightning fast, which always helps when you create new blocks of information that should be split by level of access. Comments are another great way, of course, but what makes Notion stand out is that the comment section is always on the TOP of the page, not on the bottom, which is how it often happens. If that's not enough, inline comments are to help.
Notification system, toggling subscription on/off for pages, custom templates, markdown and layout of text, handful of smart fields in database - the list of useful features is long.

Incredible

What do you dislike about the product?
The complexity of using advanced functions.

Having all the information to work online with different colleagues.
Notion is the best software that I discovered so far
What do you like best about the product?
The thing that I like the best about Notion is its possibility of customization. With Notion you can create an habit tracker or a CRM fully adapted to your business. I think it's really awesome for small businesses.
What do you dislike about the product?
I won't say that I dislike it but maybe we should have a starting guide with more advice, especially with databases.
Another thing that could be nice is to lock a filter like when you have a shared tasks list that comes from the same database (make that not everyone could see your tasks).
One more thing could be a roll-up filter (like rollup when XX).
And the last thing, a database view widget for iPhone to show your tasks for example.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion allows me to centralize all of my company activities and to create a link with the different department. Also as it is fully customizable I can really adapt it to my activity.
Just made everyday work EASY
What do you like best about the product?
The database management, along with fun elements of emojis
What do you dislike about the product?
I did use ClickUp as well, and I liked all the categories at one page. I think that can be here at Notion too
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeps all my database, notes, calendars, and timelines in one place. Making my daily communication easy
The Perfect Wiki
What do you like best about the product?
If you're looking to create a simple clean information-based website, you're not going to find a better solution. Additionally, the support team are extremely responsive should you run into trouble.
What do you dislike about the product?
I confused myself with the access permissions when trying to transfer ownership of a notion page (expecting the permissions to be exactly the same as Google Docs), there's a slight nuance between pages and workspaces which proves problematic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For us, Notion is a public repository which multiple team-members can easily updated. This allows us to present a highly functional website up-to-date.
Excelent tool for gathering information of any type
What do you like best about the product?
Notion allows you to customize as many pages as you want because it's completely modular. That means you can recreate any information structure and expand it as needed. You can link and connect everything in your workspace. Its main strength is the use of databases to have hubs of related information together. I think it's perfect to gather and collect complex information and present it to clients or teams to establish a flow of work.
I use it as my Personal Knowledge Management platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
Once you have a lot of content in your workspace, it becomes a bit slower when you start it because everything is stored in the cloud. This also means you can't access the information if you are not connected because no local copies are stored, which is the biggest downside.
Also, the use of databases can be a downside because it could lead you to force some things into a specific structure you previously created.
And finally, due to it's impressive search function (one the best I've seen), they claim they can't use ent to end encryption.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's been excellent for creating documents summarizing the client's needs for a project. The ability to create internal pages, different highlighting methods, and the links to other platforms (drive, youtube, lucidchart, github) allows you to have a compact page where you only see what you want and need to see. But you can still find any information related to that project, whether it's relevant bibliography, ideas, database with tasks for the project, or links to documents that update live. You can use Notion as a hub for all the information about the project without having to search in every platform individually.
