Excellent UX that allows for excellent productivity
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Notion is its excellent UX that lets you focus on what you're writing. In addition, Notion has a ton of easily accessible functionality to build your pages, be it Kanban boards, Roadmaps, Databases, and tons of handy things. Honestly can't go back to my personal and professional writing without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, it still doesn't allow for the customizability that would take it to the next level. You should be able to change the fonts, background colour/palette of pages and build advanced dashboards (handy for team managers in tech organisations) - alas, this is not available yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion's ability to structure your pages into wiki-like sites makes it ideal for writing technical documentation for projects, internal company wikis and personal writing projects. Furthermore, the AI tools are quite handy - some of them need significant prompting work from the user to be useful, but the "Improve Writing" functionality is perfect to use on any text.
A Tool I cannot run my life and business without
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility of being able to design as you need, including tick boxes, databases and tags. ability to capture and source everything in one place in a way I need to see it at the time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still needs a better clippng tool or extension invented for web without having to use third party apps
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The writing assistant is life changing. It is solving life management issues assisting me to have a paperless office and spend more time on what I enjoy content and writing creating.
Amazing!!!

A comprehensive Review
What do you like best about the product?
It organized everything well, I can easily access to what I need in no time. And the notion AI is fantastic to help me do some summaries. It saves me a lot of time
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I am not satisfied is that notion AI do not have an automatic local backup option and encryption option. Nowadays, data is important that everything else. So I hope the notion team can add auto local backup and encryption option in the future
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me do some CRM, and continues help me summarize some long articles. It is also a very good database to storage all my knowledge and daily memos. It makes my life more convenient
A fantastic personal assistant!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has really helped me work flow and university organisation very effecitvely, being able to track and manage different tasks and files takes away a lot of the stress of doing every day activities.
Notion AI has been awesome at writing notes and summarising information and it has even helped plan my dissertation for my final year of university. It has a lot of features built in and it's 110% worth the asking price of $10 a month which is a steal

What do you dislike about the product?
Although Notion is incredibly powerful one of the biggest issues is it's performance, using Notion on mobile when you have a very large database or there are different widgets on screen can drastically decrease the performance which can impact work speed but it is not noticeable the majority of the time
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Planning and researching my assignments by giving me building blocks which help me understand what I need to talk about and how I talk about it, I've always been bad with managing my time and remembering so having a centralised system to store my ideas and though is super helpful
Planning made Accessible and Simplified
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is by far the most intuitive and best part of notion, unlike other websites and softwares where setting documents, tables, calendars, etc is tedious, Notion very simply allows you to craft a page according to how you see fit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the non flexibility in design. Though the design language is very nice, I feel as though parts of say the table implementation or spreadsheet implementation leaves much to be desired by way of customer input and customizability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By far the biggest problem Notion solves for me is laying out large projects in palatable manners. Research papers are far easier to monitor in terms of progress with simplified headings and to do list options, questions on what is included in the paper are answered simply through the AI, and more.
The best note taker and life organizer
What do you like best about the product?
Notion blends in with the aesthetic of its host OS so well. It's organized neatly and has several powerful tools for students and collaborators of varying project sizes.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downsides to using notion is that it can be slow to launch or some animations are very choppy with interacting with UI elements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion AI makes the busy work of writing notes or summarizing much easier.
The PKM I always envisioned but never knew existed
What do you like best about the product?
Love the multidimensional / granular data model and the flexibility to create custom information architectures.
What do you dislike about the product?
No dislikes per se, it just took some time to wrap by brain around the concept of standalone or sub pages vs. pages in a database.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Removing friction from the process of capturing information has allowed me to create a "second brain." I'm also evaluating for future enterprise use.
Really wonderful AI
What do you like best about the product?
I really loved all of the built in features. I loved the features like "make longer", "change the tone", "translate", and "summarize". These tools made my work a lot more efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the AI didn't exactly know what I was asking it to do. When I would ask the AI a question, sometimes it would spit back "this text is in English" and I was never sure if that meant the AI wasn't sure what I wanted to say.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is really helping me by summarizing long articles that I have to read for school. I'm assigned typically 50-100 pages of reading every week and notion helps me understand the concepts so I can be better prepared for class.
Using AI Writing Assistant in Notion
What do you like best about the product?
Notion translated the heat of GPT into we'll structures practice. Saving time to sort out the appropriate prompts, with integrated prompts that are designed by the Notion team. It is suitable for use in Notion so that most users will find it relevant to their daily tasks regardless they have used GPT or not somewhere else.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could further demonstrate why a user might use Notion AI instead of using ChatGPT. It is currently not possible to autocorrect the typos when writing prompts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It puts the abilities of GPT into real use cases and it is designed to facilitate Notion Users in the first place. These users will use Notion regardless of the AI feature, so introducing the AI feature is not aggressive and it is easier for users making sense of the abilities of AI in their personalized use cases.
