Notion is a flexible, powerful tool (and AI makes it more so)

  • May 03, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is incredible at giving you the flexibility you need to create whatever you need—from a simple notes library to reminders to project management. Over my two years of using it I've developed systems that help me in my day-to-day tasks both as a business owner, creative freelancer, and even a father of 4 kids. All of my notes and projects live inside Notion and I use it daily.
What do you dislike about the product?
While a selling point of Notion is its powerful tools, the complexitiy is also a downside. It took me several tries to understand it, and I gave up just as many times until it finally clicked. Notion does a decent job of helping you learn, but it's almost like trying to teach someone Adobe Photoshop. There are so many tools that you kind of need to dive in and explore in order to learn them all. That itself is a barrier of entry for the person who isn't technically inclined.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage anywhere from 3-5 projects at a time, all with their own assets, tasks, and deadline. Notion is flexible enough that I'm able to build a project management software tuned to my specific needs and desires. It also is a ready repository for all my notes, spanning from family to books I read to work notes. With all of my notes and projects living inside of Notion, the AI features are able to search my own personal notes. Just this morning I asked the AI assistant, "in what note did I write about looking for clients with a 500k budget?" It was able to search the my whole database and link to my precise note. Having AI plugged directly into the knowledge database I'm building is awesome.

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is an incredible helpful tool for many different aspects of your life. With the easy to use templates, you can create personalized pages for business, personal, and everything in between. What is great about Notion is it's ability to apply itself to many different types of users - students, CEOs, key stakehoders, and more.
Getting started on the platform is very easy and they have a ton of helpful resources for you.

Notion's new AI feature has been a game changer, and something that seriously impacts your ability to check things off quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limiting features within the in-line functionality available. For example, formatting some of the tables or calendars can be a bit limiting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AI writing assistant is a great way to cut down on my action items. I can pop in a phrase, and it will give me an excellently written paragraph based on the prompt.
You can also have AI writing assistant summarize notes/agenda items for you as well.

My primary use for Notion is project management. The personalized approach you can have with Notion makes it such a great management tool.

Awesome Tool

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is super handy for notetaking and organization. I especially the AI Writing Assistant for note taking in a fast-paced class requiring more attention on keeping up with the dialogue than pausing to take notes. Simply type a keyword and notion AI can fill in the rest!

I've also used it for collaborative team planning, and know classmates who have utilized the AI brainstorming feature with success.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a learning curve like with anything, but I don't have any noteworthy complaints!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Intuitive and flexible note organization with AI writing to fill in the blanks or flesh out descriptions helps me spend more time listening and less time documenting.

Organization hacks for ADHD

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's like my own personal assistant! When I discovered the app, I was in my second semester of grad school while working 2 jobs and I felt like I was drowning. I joined before the AI assistant and notion helped me gain control over my life, which completely shifted my work life balance. Once the AI assistant came in (I've taken to calling mine Nancy), it was a game changer I didn't know I needed! I'm able to organize my thoughts, outline papers, and set a foundation for my tasks much faster and much better.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be overwhelming to begin - a white page is overwhelming for me, and the initial templates weren't what I needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When my task list is too long, Notion AI helps me to sort out my tasks based on priority and time.

Indispensable Tool

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has made a tremendous impact in my ability to manage my own life and my business. It keeps the information I need very accessible and organized. I nearly always have Notion up on my computer and use it daily on my phone as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a great backend for documentation and wiki's, and it's awesome that I can publish pages directly to the web - it would be nice if I could connect my domain directly through Notion for web publishing and have greater control over public permissions and access, but that is a shift in scope from it's current focus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can keep my personal and business life organized well in Notion, and with the AI feature, I can quickly ask questions and let the AI give me an answer from my own information.

Superpowering your copywriting

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am always aware of the power of Notion, the blank canvas that can evolved into any kind of document your require.

As someone that isn't the most disciplined planner, I may not take advantage of all the feature on offer from Notion, but the AI assist has been a huge ally in my day to day work.

Notions 'Ask AI' has become a standard part of the daily workflow, often drafting then having the AI recommend improvements to the copy before I send, especially when communicating with customers or the Senior Leadership team.

When compared to the output of other tools like ChatGPT, the recommendations are often subtle, more mindful of the tone of voice, less abstract that what other tools offer.

The investment in Notions AI add-on is a no brainer, and the ROI is much higher than the outlay.

Would recommend
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not a lot to dislike here. Using it to make copy longer, shorter, simple grammar checks or wholesale rewrites or tonal changes. It's all great
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me with my commmunication, as I'm not the strongest writer in the world and it's helping me make sense of my own thoughts as well as those I wish to relay to others with greater accuracy

What do you like best about the product?
easy to keep organised, I love that I can use it organise loads of files and notes and data in a really intuitive way and the ai writing assistant is SO helpful. I use it for so many things.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tables and data in tables isn't a good replacement for many things in excel I find. There are times when I just link through to a google doc rather than keep in notion because of that reason.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organising all my client files and working docs, some project management too.

I do all my working and notes in notion and then move over to a presentation when it's ready to be presented to client.

Game-changing Product for a Self Employed Musician

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Being able to easily implement Second Brain systems.

Ability to link my Reader, Browser, etc into Notion is incredibly helpful for organizing my work, research, business, and school life.
What do you dislike about the product?
The barrier of entry is steep at first, and I still feel like I'm learning the program as I go, but the potential is massive!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm a self employed professional musician that runs my own teaching studio while also playing for a living. I'm also currently in school finishing my second master's degree. The amount of general admin work as well as organization that's required for me to be at the right place at the right time while staying ontop of my school and administrative work is difficult - Notion helps me organize my life so I don't have to think about my day-to-day as much.

One tool that smoothed out my life's rough edges

  • May 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I kept seeing Notion being mentioned here and there for a few years and finally had what it takes to take up a new software a few years ago. Even though it took me 2 tries to fully integrate Notion into my life, I finally have THE dashboard I can go to for anything in my life - if I need to make a to-do list, a reminder, keep notes about my hobbies or use a template to evaluate the prioties in my wishlists, and now even draft my work emails (thanks to the new AI feature). Speaking of AI, while I'm usually a big sceptic, the intergation has been seemless for me and I've enjoyed it specifically for getting suggestions on how I can paraphrase or shorten my messages before I send them off. Notion has a great balance of customization freedom vs established systems and templates that one can use as a jumping off point or just to have a quick start on whatever task you're up to. I also appreciate Notion staying an approachable and FREE software beyond words - it makes it so easy to reccommend to friends and family.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really wish Notion had features for zooming into areas of my pages - I constantly try to do it with my trackpad but forget I still can't. I also find that the apps can sometimes be glitchy with how often I get logged out (it happens irregularly too).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love having Notion as the one-stop-shop for my home life, hobbies, work, or even journaling my thoughts. It's been the best platform for compiling my brainstorming as well as drafting anything I need for my job or personal life.
