The best note-taking tool I use on a regular basis
What do you like best about the product?
Just to name a few of the incredible features of this app that I use on a daily basis, it's awesome to be able to ideate in the moment and document my thoughts and ideas in real-time through typing and dictation. It's also wonderful to be able to link to other pages, podcasts, and videos as well as upload photographs and access an image library.
What do you dislike about the product?
I currently lack the option to conduct word searches within the uploaded notes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
very customizable, with a variety of commands and formats. There are templates available, and setup is simple. I use this to keep track of notes for each of my clients, save login links, and access my favourite Google Docs. I could decide which folders I wanted to share with my team and which I wanted to keep private.
The most customisable CRM there is!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is a fully customisable platform, like a spreadsheet & Word Doc combined, with additional functionality. My agency runs in different ways between project-based tasks, and retainer-based repeatable tasks and finding a Project Management system that works for both has always been difficult. Notion is by far the best system to suit all ways of operating. It is also a great CRM, so I have been able to move everything into 1 platform, streamlining everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont dislike anything about Notion. I suppose the hard part is the fact that there is so much freedom, you really need to think about what you want when building it out, which can be a bit time-consuming, but still well worth it for the flexibility.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the problem of multiple different working methodologies, with its flexibility, you can set it up to suit any workflow. It is now easier to manage the workflow from every department and every management level.
The most amazing all in one app I´ve ever used
What do you like best about the product?
For several years I was using a bunch of tools to do different personal and work-related stuff such as project management, to-do list, keeping notes, etc. I used evernote, trello, Monday, one Note, you name it and I probably used it. That´s when I casually discover Notion while browsing a Q&A site for another app. Its simplicity made me curious and force me to dive deeper.
I felt in love with Notion because all of a sudden I was able to do all the things in just one app, so I immediately changed and started to learn more and more about it.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I really miss and would love to have in Notion is Mind Mapping. I can use some tricks and twists to achieve something similar, but I still prefer the look and feel of traditional mind mapping tools. If they can think of a way to make mind mapping efficient in Notion without losing its simplicity, that would be awesome!! 🤩
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It became my center of command for all my personal and work related stuff. It is my note taking tool, my project management tool, my processes and procedures repository. It is everything.
My Mind, Very Much Organized: Thanks to Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I am a fan of notion for their clean, minimalistic and user friendly nature that it offers. But now with their new ai features it got powerful (wanna see how their build feature will evolve). Also the way i can integrate my google calendar data, managing some of my clients meeting got super simplified. Also while making plans, the use of ai in the same platform makes it easier to write content and get data from. Also a few shortcuts that i can create using their automation tool simplified my boring and time consuming simple tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion's new AI features have amazed me, i regularly use the ask feature and it works flawlessly. But i would ask Notion to work on their research and build AI features as the are not on to the point. Also would ask Notion to integrate Microsoft teams to manage effectively the meetings along with already integrated google calendar. Also a few more ai features focusing on simplifying techies life and improving productivity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping by organizing my work on to a single platform. Now with their ai features, I'm able to ideate, plan, gather data, manage my meetings, design databases and finally create simple automation to put my life on auto pilot and improve myt productivity. Also i can see improved effectiveness in my work because of these new features from Notion.
STRUCTURED AND UNSTRUCTURED CONTENT IN ONE
What do you like best about the product?
NOTION OFFERS YOU THE BLANK PAGE, READY TO BE FILLED EASILY - NO WORRIES ABOUT ORDERING YOUR CONTENT, AS THAT CAN EASILY HAPPEN AFTERWARDS: REORDER YOUR BLOCKS OF TEXT, YOUR PAGES, CHANGE THE NATURE OF YOUR BLOCKS, OR MAKE THEM ITEMS IN DATABASES - IT'S ABOUT THE SPEED OF CREATING CONTENT. ONCE YOU HAVE DISCOVERED REPEATING PATTERNS, USE THESE IN TEMPLATES TO HAVE YOUR CONTENT FORMED IN PREDEFINED STRUCTURES. EASILY COLLABORATE WITH TEAM MEMBERS, AND EASILY INVOLVE PEOPLE FROM OUTSIDE THROUGH SHARING ONLY THIS PAGE TO THEM.
What do you dislike about the product?
THE NOTION WORKPLACE IS HIGHLY DYNAMIC - YOU NEED TO GET USED TO THAT. AND FURTHER TO THAT: OF COURSE YOU BUMP INTO THINGS THAT SHOULD BE DESIGNED BETTER, BUT THEN YOU ARE QUITE OFTEN SURPRISED BY HOW FAST NOTION EVOLVES AND ADDS NEW FEATURES AND BETTER ERGONOMICS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
NOTION HELPS TEAMS TO EASILY COLLABORATE THROUGH EXISTING AND NEWLY TO BE MADE CONTENT; IT OFFERS A REALM OF PREDEFINED STRUCTURES TO DO THIS. TEAM KNOWLEDGE WORK IS ALL ABOUT 'DESIGNING' INFORMATION -- THAT'S NOTION'S NATURE.
As the AI assistant has been added since begin 2023, it really got some superpowers. It helps me translating, documenting, writing letters, summarizing, explaining...
I even use it as a kind of coach and co-sensemaker!

Best internal documentation I've tried so far!
What do you like best about the product?
What I really like in Notion is the ability to create very quickly and easily nice and collaborative wiki pages. All our company data and knowledge is centralized in Notion and accessible for each team.
The database/view feature is also great and allows us to display one source of truth in different pages with different layout/presentations.

What do you dislike about the product?
On my opinion, the only missing thing within Notion is an internal analytics dashboard.
It would be very great to see which pages/sections are the most viewed or modified.
Also we cannot create a graph from a database, but some third-party (paying) plugins offer this feature.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem we had before Notion was that our internal documentation and data were spread around multiple places (Dropbox, Google Drive, Confluence..), with no central access/directory.
Notion replaced all these apps we were using and now centralizes all our company knowledge and data in one place. Easily accessible/searchable for every team and with a simple access control feature.

Notion for work and for play
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility and ease. I use a lot of applications for planning, tracking, scheduling, and completion of projects for home and work. I wanted a platform solution that was all in one, and while Notion is not there yet I do believe we are on track for me to offboard almost all of the other systems I use to monitor my life and work tasks, activities, and inventory. I love Notion so much, I quit Airtable and Clickup and have no intention of rejoining those platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to use formulas that are more complex and create recurring task lists and to reference other databases. This capability is not yet available, there are some discussions on future abilities and integrations I am excited to see where the app goes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Specifically for work, it holds the documents for project managing, how-to guides etc. I use it to track the progress of my teams through implementation and keep track of any issues and lessons I learn along the way.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing about Notion that i dislike, just there are a few minor issues which are worth noticing & i believe the amazing team at notion will work on them:
- Live Collaboration and Pages Synchronization can be improved as updates made offile sometimes donot get synced properly.
- Live Collaboration and Pages Synchronization can be improved as updates made offile sometimes donot get synced properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The notion is solving our workflow problems right from managing databases to managing content to even creating customer/Investor decks, We use the notion on daily basis for more than dozens of routine tasks. Instead of using multiple saas tools like Jira for managing tasks/logs of engineering team, CRM for sales & marketing team, We prefer to manage our most of the work on Notion by using various freely avialble templates.
Notion has changed the way I organise my life, personal and professional alike
What do you like best about the product?
What I love about Notion is how flexible it is to every single need of mine. Do I need to create a database of tasks? Check. Do I need to create a list to keep track of the books I'd like to read? Check. Do I simply need a place where I can dump information and notes for future reference? Notion does that too.
It's empowered me to centralise all my information and create a hub that I can use to manage my entire life. There's simply nothing like it.

What do you dislike about the product?
Notion is amazing for managing projects and for its flexibility, but there are a few things that I've encountered as a Team plan user. The learning curve is a bit steep for new users; it takes a lot of time to set up, even with templates; and the lack of recurring tasks is a great downside to anyone managing a repeated set of tasks over a long period of time. Database templates are a good workaround, but they're not perfect themselves.
While I think the former two items are a matter of personal taste and commitment, and I don't necessarily suffer because of those, I would really love to see recurring tasks sooner rather than later! It would change the way I use Notion completely, both at work and in my personal life.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me optimise my workflow and get rid of repeated information across my WFH workspace. Being remote means that there's a lot of data that needs to be accessed all the time, and coordinating a team can become cumbersome. Notion is helping me and my colleagues get rid of all that, by making information easy to access and more streamlined across a range of different micro-teams. It's basically helping remove silos!
Notion has helped me organise my school, work, and life – all while making it more enjoyable!
What do you like best about the product?
I like best the way Notion works at the core, so just blank pages. The amount of flexibility that comes with that is inspiring and I use lots of custom pages daily which reflect that. Also, the support that Notion employees gave me when I had a bug report or product request was simply astonishing.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no downsides to using Notion. Over time the updates have reduced all kinks related to speed as my larger pages became a bit slower. At this time, there is nothing to add in my opinion, although I am sure they will think of ways to improve nonetheless!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is solving the problem that all types of information is stored in different places. Also it has no restrictions to what you can input, which makes it much better than other tools. No need to save / remember, its flawless and automatic!
