Amazing
What do you like best about the product?
I absolutely love notion! I use it for keeping all my work notes organized. I love being able to access all my notes in one place while also managing different types of data into one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can have a bit of a learning curve when you first get started, but after watching a few tutorials videos, following the tutorials from Notion, & looking into templates offered by others, I was able to adapt and edit to my liking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves having multiple platforms to keep different types of documents. I love that I can access and edit so many different types of document in order to keep everything together. Overall, it's helped me be better at my job, and keeps me organized for day to day life!
Workflow calendar and progress for multiple Team and multiple tasks at one place
What do you like best about the product?
Notion helped by making it convenient to plan and track tasks. We used Notion to create a plan, a calendar. We assigned tasks and monitored workflow across several timezones.
It cut down our meetings by 2/3rds.

What do you dislike about the product?
While most of the dashboard was intuitive, there is some learning curve. You can create databases in Notion, but I have not yet been able to figure out importing current databases into notion. However, they do provide the ability to link to any file.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to cut down our meetings by more than half because Notion allows you to create detailed steps and assign work. Our productivity and turnaround times have increased because we started using their templated for tracking progress.
An excellent software for technical documentation
What do you like best about the product?
Notion helps me and my team organize our daily tasks and monthly projects speedily and efficiently, with many options to choose from regarding data in subpages.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very rarely, the software will disconnect all of the accounts that are logged in, set the theme white and enable spell check again; for some reason. It isn't enjoyable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The software is helping my team to share knowledge very fast and create a vast knowledge base for us to consult every day, accelerating our performance every time we have problems that were already fixed and documented.
Super Flexible note taking
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to nest notes as pages and the flexibility to treat everything as a block. The Kanban borad function is super helpful as well, I use it all the time to track my todo list
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a steep learning curve. I find my teamates who aren't familiar with it have a harder time using it. It would be nice if there was some sort of tutorial
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At home, it helps me keep track of things in my homelab, keeps commands I need to remeber in order and allows me to visualize things much better. At work, I can keep track of projects as we are doing them so we can see what needs to be done yet and it does a great job keeping my to-do list in order and lets me hop into an individual page for each item if I want to go into more detail on a task.
Notion is really fun, easy and a complex tool to use and I love it
What do you like best about the product?
Using Notion, is for me, as fun as using WordPress to build a site. There are so many simple areas to use and some little pickles to figure out too. I love that there is awesome support available and a ton of videos on the tube. Building with Notion is a bit like a playground and I really love it.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be awesome if one day, more solid and supported integrations were available, but even still, I love this platform! There are some integrations that I'd really like to use. I can use them and link them to Notion. It's just that, if I need support for them, I can't get help from Notion and I have to go directly to the source. I know that Notion is awesome and super helpful, but I can't say that for other connecting platforms out there. Having all integrations, under one roof and managed & supported by Notion would be awesome. Having said that, I really love Notion and learning about how to make it work just the way I want it to. It really is lots of fun!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Notion is great for me because it means that I am able to create client portals for all of my individual clients to use. So that all important videos and documents and revisions can be safely stored in one place. Having this stuff stored in other ways can be messy and can be hard to find things at times. But using Notion really helps to keep everything super crisp and uber organised.
The only tool I swear by!
What do you like best about the product?
The databases are probably the coolest thing about Notion - it's easy to link it with other team members, track progress week on week, and a super time-effective way of managing projects and a team. I've used other tools like Asana before but nothing has compared to Notion.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be difficult to edit a database and often it deletes / wipes out blocks for others when one person edits. It can also be slightly limiting when trying to creative databases and scale them to different timelines or across months (eg: recurring time sheets linked to task sheets automatically changing every month).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing a team is seamless with Notion and has reduced our overall meeting time by 50%. It helps us complete tasks more efficiently and save time in the process.
Notion and its use of databases are superb for organizing and sharing information
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to start using. It is a superb solution for organizing work information for personal productivity and sharing it with teams. It connects to third-party apps such as Google Docs. You can organize and embed individual files in Google Docs, making it easy to share and locate files to support your workflow. It is very versatile and can be used for document management, task management, project management, and product management, to name a few applications. There are lots of documentation, tutorials and templates to get you started. Notion is a database management platform. When you create a database in Notion (no coding required), there are numerous ways to organize and view the data: relational data, view calendars, Gantt charts and a kanban board. You can include most types of files and code in Notion.
Notion is constantly updating the product. If there is a missing feature, wait, it may get added soon.

What do you dislike about the product?
Notion is deceptively powerful. This "dislike" is not a criticism. You can use Notion quickly; however, there is a steep learning curve to use its best features, such as databases, effectively. Notion has lots of helpful documentation and video to help you learn. There is a lot of control over the look and feel, but I would like more. You have three fonts to choose from, but it would be great to have more. These are nits. There isn't anything I seriously dislike about Notion. But I know what I'm using it for. If you want to organize personal notes, there may be better options. If you are in a shared/team workspace, Notion is in a class by itself to create wikis, databases, tasks, and notes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing information with a team. Sharing information securely. We can include information created using Notion and add documents from other sources, including Google Workspace files, images, web links, videos, web pages, notes, meeting notes, contracts, document forms and more. The developers can create their workspaces, add code and connect to Jira and GitHub. We can also connect pages to Slack
We no longer use separate apps for project management, product management or notes.
Other benefits are fewer meetings, everyone is updated, communication is better, and we are completing projects more efficiently.

Notion is a fabulous tool. It's highly personalised, scalable and helps create transparency
What do you like best about the product?
It's highly personalisable. It's like IKEA for productivity. A 'do it yourself (DIY) productivity tool. It gives me a sense of satisfaction working on Notion cause I can tailor to my way of working.
What do you dislike about the product?
The number of features being added is getting too much, and this might hinder increase complexity. Also, focus on improving the amount of integration would be better primarily slack and other startup digital tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is solving the problem of giving the user the power to solve their workspace problem proactively by letting them 100% control over UX design. No two users have the same Notion.
Great app for productivity management
What do you like best about the product?
The interface allows nesting of pages in multiple views (table, list, boards etc.) making for a streamlined way to save and organize data. Unlike some note organization apps where data feels scattered and cluttered, you can move information around in the most aesthetically pleasing way that works for your design and productivity sensibilities and preferences. It's a great app for work and life management.
What do you dislike about the product?
The app is sometimes slow to load and sometimes it looks as if some of your data has been lost. This happens rarely and only with small portions of data, but when it does, Notion customer service is great at helping to solve and recover anything lost, in my experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is solving the problems that come with the information age, an overload of data that seems overwhelming to organize and keep straight as you try to get work completed. By offering a simple and sleek interface to put in any type of data and the ability to sort it to your liking, you receive some relief from this excess.
The Best Productivity System
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create an unlimited number of databases and link them together. Using this allows me to use Notion not only for work but also for personal purposes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I hope Notion could add a more visible time management system, as many other applications do, as well as the option to create notes using the Apple pencil. The ability to choose custom colors for text coloring and highlighting will be an added bonus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a note-taking system, infinite calendars, unlimited databases, and endless levels of pages/databases. Having sophisticated filtering options also helps a lot in creating a clean and organized system.
