Versatile, expansive platform
What do you like best about the product?
The best and worst thing is that there are so many uses, it's hard to know what to prioritize - from Trello-like boards to calendars to document repositories, Notion does so many neat things that it keeps getting more useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
While the interface is incredibly intuitive, it can be daunting to use keyboard shortcuts for everything or know what you're missing out on. documentation/tutorials may be available for that purpose
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
team collaboration software is often point-solution heavy and requires heavy onboarding time - Notion didn't and has allowed our team to track projects, maintain documentation and keep a comprehensive calendar
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just do it - and spend time exploring the functionality, different types of templates and overall customizability that can best support you and your teams.

Excellent for Large Working Teams
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you are able to make your own templates on Notion. They have suggestions about how to organize pages, but they also let you create your own templates for a way that you feel most organized. It is a very easy software to use and it is easy for sharing with team members. We keep all of our documentation and schedules in notion for our whole team to see.
What do you dislike about the product?
You pay by the number of team members that are using the software which can be challenging. It can get pricey if your team is too large. I still think it is worth it though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping us to solve our accountability problems. You can set reminders for people and for yourself in the calendar mode. This is making everyone aware of when they are late on a project or deadline. It is very clear and upfront.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think it is an exceptional product for project managers. I am able to make sure that everyone is staying on task. I can also see what updates have been made to certain pages recently. It helps to not to continually bother teammates.
Great way to organize my life
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to create things and is methodological with its organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it were more capable, looking at Coda or Airtable for functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helped me put all my notes and todos in one place.
Google Docs + Google Drive + Sheets + Asana = Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I love how customizable Notion is. I use it for work and my personal life. Unlike other project management tools, Notion doubles as a really useful note keeper. This is something that I have struggled with while using other apps like Asana which are task oriented. To me, Notion is an all in one. My team uses it for project specific To-do's, storing relevant documents and materials, notes, design system documentation, and questions. I love how in the mobile app you can take a picture and insert it directly into your notes. I found this extremely useful at conferences when I'm taking notes a million miles a minute and taking pics of presentation slides at the same time. I am able to create a page for the conference and a sub-page for each session I attended to keep all of my notes organized and easily accessible. I also use for my personal life as a journal and planner.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike is the mobile app is very temperamental. It will randomly log me out and sometimes it is difficult to get logged back in. It also randomly shuts down sometimes. I started using the web app on my phone instead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing and organizing every aspect of a project in one place with a team in 2 different countries. A benefit we have realized is that we don't need a super sexy software with all the unnecessary bells and whistles. One of our most used pages in Notion is a super long ever growing page sectioned off with every flowchart, general overview, question, and link we need and we love it. Its so basic but we find everything we need exactly when we need it and that is all that matters. I use Notion and Asana daily for different roles at work and I prefer Notion over Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want asana + google docs + google drive + sheets use Notion
An Upgrade from Evernote
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Notion is that it allows for subpages. This lets me organize all of my work in a much more effective way than I could in Evernote. Everything was designed to make myself more efficient and it makes it worth the money for the time I save.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they would have a tab so you could easily return to pages you recently made changes too. Without this, it makes it hard to keep track of things you were working on then switched away from.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me keeping meeting notes in the same place as my personal and business to-do lists and lets me share them with my team.
Love this product - better than OneNote, Google Docs, or Trello!
What do you like best about the product?
Design: it’s just vastly simpler than the alternatives
Flexibility: offers what you can do in trello, OneNote, and Google Docs and more. It’s just lightyears better

What do you dislike about the product?
Tables still seem a little basic in terms of calculations. And there’s an occasional UI bug. Not much to dislike though tbh
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recording my entire life in notion, tracking software roadmap and daily updates, trip planning, expense reporting
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it out!
Great Multi Purpose Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Notion attempts to combine a lot of the tools that I use regularly into one - and it does a pretty good job at it! It's been exciting to have one go to place for all business communications and planning
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of all it can do, there was a bit of a learning curve for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this for to-do lists, for planning, sharing files and collaborating. This is not the first tool to offer these features, but one of the best to offer all of these features in one products
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They have a free option and it's worth giving it a shot
Great for keeping notes and records
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is very fast and the UI feels amazing. I love that I can jump into taking notes and organize it right away. Team sharing and shareable URLs are also amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Android app needs work, it takes at least 15 seconds for it to load every time I open it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There is now a place for everything, in one central location. Notion is great for organizing all of my team's documents for easy access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for free to see if it fits your workflow! Then you can consider upgrading to a paid plan.
Extremely Useful and User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
This program is great for personal organization as well as group collaboration. The interface is clean and simple and there's a lot of room for customization. You can get great use out of this just by using their existing templates or by getting deeper into the features and designing your own.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could do with a bit more of a tutorial to help those who want to use the more complicated features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
