Best note taking app for students
What do you like best about the product?
Easy and straightforward to use, allowing me to easily take down my university notes cleanly and understandably, while also being able to reference pages to other pages
What do you dislike about the product?
Now, this is a hard question as so far I have not found any downsides to using Notion at all. It is straightforward and simple to use maybe a even larger selection of templates could be cool but otherwise nothing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me keep track of all my study and university notes, while automatically making a bibliography for all the work I am currently writing, helping me stay organized and ready to start my thesis
My operational brain
What do you like best about the product?
linking databases and notes in one place. Flexibility of me designing my own system.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. cluttered search. Since more pages are created, I would like to have - un-search in this page as a function. For example, I have Archive, where I can move my older projects.
2. When I onboard a team member - it takes some time ( a lot of time) to explain the notion and our operational principles

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing, sorting, and linking information of my operational brain.
Notion is great
What do you like best about the product?
Powerful linked databases with different views, filters, sorts and hidden columns.
What do you dislike about the product?
1) Guest access should improve: I don't like it that anyone can see the list of names and emails of people with access to a shared page.
2) Custom domains should improve: I would like to use a full custom domain, and not.notion.so/

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Single source of truth for company knowledge and project organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I strongly recommend it.
Best tables for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The new simple way to store thousands of artifacts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe not so obvious working with notifications. And work with permissions could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tons of information is now in one Wiki, a lot of colleagues
The tool that changed my life
What do you like best about the product?
I've used a lot of tools in this space, and none of them were very easy to find things, customize, etc. With Notion, you can make it your own. I love how easy it is to create templates. It has saved us tons of times. When it comes to content on pages, you can literally make them whatever you want with the various content block types that exist. If you change your mind, it's also very easy to change one content block type to another or move pages or content around. With one tool, I can do everything I need to...capture meeting notes, create project plans, create guides and deliverables, keep track of statuses of various things, even create our product roadmap. I have been able to do everything I've needed. Anytime I have questions, support is quick to respond.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is big. If you understand databases, I feel like Notion is the most powerful tool in the world. If you're used to working more in code or technical systems, it's a breeze. But if you're a person that is used to working in Microsoft Word or teams for everything, it's not very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication across the organization - we have a single source of truth. This saves time and energy that used to be wasted tracking down answers or setting people straight on things.
Project planning - I'm able to manage all projects in Notion, which means I don't have to work in a project management system and then move to something else to get other information out.
Strategic planning - We're able to do our strategic planning for our business here, which provides instant visibility to leaders and staff.
Meeting management - No longer do I have to send out meeting notes after a meeting. I can share an agenda ahead of time, people can add items to discuss real time, we can have a database of to-dos and a place for notes. In real-time everyone can see things, and it's easy to follow-up after.

Intuitive, user-friendly, and fun!
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Notion offers a great interface to collaborate with peers. It is easy to create pages that have a lot of content and peers can be tagged so that they may view information and comment directly. It's also more practical to use Notion when there is a lot of information as it is more readable and the load time is faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main issue with Notion is that it can quickly become a never ending suite of Notion pages that are embedded into each other. This makes navigating Notion a bit overwhelming at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps us have all documents in the same place and is easy to navigate. In addition, it is a great tool to share a great quantity of information with other teams as you can put an almost unlimited amount of info.
It’s a super versatile tool.
What do you like best about the product?
Having a place for everything and being and being able to organise it all in a more editorial way.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's quite expensive. If it was cheaper to add clients to pages, I would use it in more circumstances.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowledge management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Getting several tutorials.
Notion is not only fun to use but quite user friendly!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to create templates
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of anything I dislike at all
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows easier communication between our trams and creates a space where we can share thoughts and ideas between our different spaces
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would say that you should most certainly consider it if you would like a program that connects your whole company and brings everyone together on one platform! it's amazing!

What do you dislike about the product?
The blank page when we begin with Notion, even if with templates, it can be quickly handled
The impossibility to create recurring tasks without using the API and a third-party tool like Make or Zapier

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is basically an extension of my brain today. All my life, business, knowledge, projects are written and organized in Notion so I can focus on what my brain do best : thinking
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a tool to centralize all your ideas, notes, tasks, go for it !
I full-on drunk the Koolaid
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that Notion is so versatile.
I've found that it is an excellent collaborative tool for working with clients because it helps me present a paradigm that they're already familiar with and can just start working inside of without emailing a bunch of things back and forth or having to do as much teaching. At the end of the day, everything being a "page" is a good thing.

What do you dislike about the product?
I do find that there are much fewer odd quirks than when I started my Notion journey, but that said there are some growing pains that I fully believe will be resolved over time. It's easier now than it has ever been to create a better high-level project management space. I'd like to see more native integrations, searchable comments, but they're very responsive and actively improving. I have little to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I run my entire business out of Notion.
It gives me the ability to create what I need for a given purpose. Project management - check, onboarding workspace - check, client communication - check, check, check.
