Not our thing
What do you like best about the product?
- Like other applications, it can still help you perform project management duties
- There's a few ways to earn credit so you can ease the bill slightly
- Ability to create and customise templates

What do you dislike about the product?
- File size limit is 5MB
- Jira experience feels better, especially when you're using products from the same company (Confluence), and everything seems to just link to each other better. Because Notion is a separate application on its own, it obviously isn't easily integrated with other products you use.
- Not as visually appealing compared to Trello

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Monitoring/management of small projects - allows us to keep track of its status (however this isn't any different to what other alternative applications can do as well)
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.
Notion is the best tool to organize company docs, study notes and any kind of side project.
What do you like best about the product?
It's super easy and comfortable to structure your information with Notion's building blocks. Information ends up easy to read and easy to find, which is just what I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Perhaps the thing I dislike the most is the pdf export, since even though it works properly, it ends up quite ugly in my opinion. Still, a very minor thing that doesn't really change how awesome it is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly writing and maintaining business documentation. I started a business recently and I've used Notion to keep all of the information and ideas that I've gotten organized and stored.
The best and most easy to use organization software
What do you like best about the product?
This software has many helpful programming data types available for use, like inline databases and code blocks to mimic programming languages, and all of them are easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, the software will not be able to copy and paste some data across multiple pages or accounts if it's too big or complex, like databases or "in line" databases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This software is helping me organize all of my colleagues to-do lists, knowledge bases divided by sector, extensive software documentation and project management, making everyone more productive and resourceful.
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.
Notion - One size does fit all, if you're willing to dive in
What do you like best about the product?
What I love about Notion is that it allows me to store information in various ways and share it in a scalable, yet safe way with team members, clients, and relations. I also love the fact that databases can be manipulated to be used in different views, something I have to pay for when using Trello. The last thing I'd highlight is the flexibility Notion offers when it comes to organizing information. It can be in databases, text, stored in pages, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to draw in Notion, especially when making notes I miss the functionality of being able to make drawings. Additionally, I'd like a better way to link stuff, like OKRs. I've attempted this and spoke with Owais multiple times - great guy by the way, very considerate and helpful - but we kind of ended up at the borders of what Notion can do. I want to set Key Results and than link tasks and experiments, which I can then score as "useful/effective" so it shows which tasks and experiments have helped into achieving said Key Result. This is probably a bit confusing to read, but I'd be happy to elaborate on a call.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps me store information about my business - what we do, investment processes, deal memo's - and share it with my team, clients, and network. Additionally, it helps me keep track of what I'm doing and should be doing on a daily basis. Especially the latter gives me structure. Although I need to admit that I have an on-and-off relationship with the task list that I've created. I can attest that this has something to do with focus and discipline.
Great tool for asynchronous collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is simple and intuitive to use having previously come from using Atlassians confluence it is a breath of fresh air to use something that just makes communication easy
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the api was better as there is so much more notion could be used for but lacks api feature or plugins. Hopefully this will be addressed in the future. Notifications could be better would be good to have them in a central place
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion has helped to solve the problem of how we do asynchronous communication within a remote based engineering team. Which has allowed the team greater visibility across projects.
Game-changing tool to sync a business
What do you like best about the product?
An incredible resource to create a "source of truth" within an organization. The learning curve is minimal (got non-tech-savvy people to use it within a week) and the power, immense. How to replace in a second an infernal excel file for a neat, clean, readable Notion space for a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far, its a really really well crafted tool. Documentation could be a bit better (self-reference DB in a template is a must-have and not that obvious to use).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is creating a single point of truth that is easy to navigate and easy to iterate on. It facilitates communication between departments, and we can create "smart brief" that beautifully displays all key information. We've increased visibility on existing and upcoming projects.
It's nice to be using a smart, customisable and highly usable product everyday
What do you like best about the product?
I find it incredibly useful as a knowledge base. It's easy to embed documents from various sources, create databases for storing valuable information or running projects. The whole blocks aspect is quite nice as well, it gives Notion an edge in terms of usability compared to other note-taking tools out there.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tables - I have gotten pretty frustrated in the past because of the /table not working as I thought it should. I find it hard to copy paste data from other tabular data sources, moving things around is painful, the whole experience is just quite rough. Databases are one way to go about it but if youre just wanting to drop down a few numbers in a table they often feel overkill.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use notion as a knowledge base, we keep company wide information, team specific information and I personally run my todo lists off it too. It's a very covenient way of having all the information that you need through a comapany in one place.

Notion is the OS for company knowledge
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is fast and flexible, and the Notion team is rapidly innovating the product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited functionality with basic tables. Copy and paste for tables is also terrible. This makes it very hard to get information from Google Sheets to Notion and vice-versa.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the problem of scattered information. Instead of having information and insights across documents, spreadsheets, presentations, notes and more, we have everything in Notion.
