“An All-in-One Workspace That Boosts My Productivity”
What do you like best about the product?
“I like how Notion combines note-taking, task management, and knowledge sharing in one flexible platform. The AI Writing Assistant helps me write and organize content faster, the Knowledge Management tools make it easy to store and access important information, and the Enterprise Search saves me time by quickly finding what I need. The interface is intuitive, and the ability to customize pages and databases makes it suitable for both personal and team projects.”
What do you dislike about the product?
“While Notion is extremely versatile, it can feel a bit slow when loading large pages or databases, especially with many embedded files. The learning curve for setting up advanced features can also be steep for new users, and offline functionality is still limited compared to some other tools.”
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps centralize all my work documents, project plans, and meeting notes in one place, which significantly reduces the time spent searching for information. It also streamlines team collaboration by allowing real-time updates and shared databases, improving transparency and productivity across projects.
Notion is a gamechanger for ADHD
What do you like best about the product?
My mind is a mess and in the busyness of my work day I will often forget or overlook tasks, especially ones that are within a bigger task. Notion helps organise it in a way that works for my brain. the linked databases are so good.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I signed up, setting up the workspace was pretty overwhelming. However, I have since seen the introduction of AI to address that
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping to keep my thoughts and ideas organised. It has helped me curate a knowledge bank for my role which previously didn't exists and is easily searchable with natural language. It saves me hours
Big fan of Notion
What do you like best about the product?
As a project manager for 7+ research projects, it's incredibly hard to keep track of everything going on and what's left to do for each project. I've found Notion's pre-made templates really helpful for tracking team member tasks, managing budgets, and planning timelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the interface is not the easiest to use, especially with the already made templates. There are certain things I find easier to do on Canva or Excel, where I feel like I have a little more control over the formatting and creativity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They really helped me with tracking all of my team members' tasks for this research project. We have 5 members, and I'm in charge of keeping them on track with their respective duties, which can be very demanding and confusing. Luckily, the Task Tracker template helped me a lot, and I've shared it with my team, and they use it now too!
Notion AI is a game-changer!
What do you like best about the product?
I previously used Dashworks, but since Notion AI was released, it's helped immensely! I felt that prior to Notion AI, the keyword search lacked, so this has been a major enhancement.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to comment. The search functionality was improved by Notion AI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work for a completely remote company. We are a low meeting, high documentation culture so async collaboration tools are critical. I can collaborate on several different job functions with my team seamlessly.
Notion is critical to my role as a CSM.
What do you like best about the product?
It would be near impossible to do my job without Notion as a documentation resource. Creation of articles is really easy and straightforward
What do you dislike about the product?
Something like Scribe is really appealing for documentation of processes. I see a niche for both tools however, so maybe an integration would make more sense if it doesn't already exist.
Sometimes the search functionality doesn't quite take me where I am hoping it can be hard to find content. Notion, to some degree, is as good as the org you work for is able to have designed it. If nobody directly "owns" Notion things can just proliferate without great organization.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documentation of processes and resources. Gives me less that I have to remember or keep track of on my own and allows me to engage with and respond to clients more quickly. Allows me to more easily move from reaction to action.
Detailed workspace communications
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to format and set up new pages of information, choosing the settings and privacy
What do you dislike about the product?
When archiving old pages- the new or replacement pages of information are not easily linked. It can be difficult to search for or find specific pages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is our internal intraweb. I can find all internal policy documents, as well as product information. It also is used for ticket management with certain teams, like legal.
Versatile Project Management with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate Notion's role as a comprehensive project management software that keeps all projects up-to-date, especially during client calls. The AI transfer feature is invaluable for asking questions and retrieving call notes quickly. The Notion AI transcription feature is particularly beneficial for maintaining clear communication and overview during calls. I find the Mac and phone apps incredibly helpful and easy to use. Notion's visual capabilities, including different views and linked databases, make managing personal projects both efficient and visually appealing. The integration with tools like Google Drive enhances data organization and connectivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the challenges with exporting databases to CSV or Google Sheets format, which limits my ability to use data with tools like ChatGPT. Additionally, embedding Google Sheets and managing live links doesn't always function as intended.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for project management, client interaction, and note-taking. It keeps projects up-to-date, enhances client calls with AI transcription, and allows easy retrieval of information, integrating well with tools like Slack, Zoom, and Google Meet.
Great organization tool
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how easy it is to organize information and use templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion AI is lacking and cannot input criteria into specific parts of my pages (e.g. inputting information into a database, correcting and replacing information in a template).
I would like to be able to customize the colors I use on my page, by using a color wheel/hex code numbers.

Notion allows me to keep track of notes, make trackers, and make databases.
Powerful, Versatile, though a Bit Overwhelming at First
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is an incredibly powerful and flexible platform that I use daily. Its wide range of features makes it an exceptional project management tool, capable of handling everything from simple task lists to complex multi-database systems. The ability to integrate with other tools and customize workflows means it can fit seamlessly into almost any operational setup. Despite its depth, I’ve found it surprisingly easy to implement once the structure is set, and the organization it provides is unmatched. The platform’s versatility makes it ideal for both personal and team use, and customer support has been responsive and helpful when I’ve needed guidance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main drawback is the steep learning curve—its vast functionality can be overwhelming at first. For new users, it takes time to figure out how to structure pages and databases in a way that feels intuitive. While Notion AI is a great addition, it could be better at prioritizing the most recent and relevant information in responses. For those willing to invest the time, the payoff in productivity and organization is significant, but it’s worth noting the initial ramp-up period.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion centralizes all of my project management, documentation, and knowledge-sharing in one place, eliminating the need to juggle multiple tools. It allows me to create structured, linked databases that make tracking tasks, processes, and historical reference material seamless. This consolidation has reduced the time spent searching for information, improved team alignment, and given me a single source of truth for projects—especially when collaborating across departments. The flexibility to customize workflows means I can adapt it to different needs without losing efficiency, and its integrations ensure that it fits smoothly into my daily operations.
