An amazing platform to manage your work and schedule
What do you like best about the product?
The notion is not just an ordinary note-taking platform. It has some incredible features that we want like scheduling tasks, email notifications, customizing and sharing pages, collaboration, etc. Notion has been keeping track of the requirements of its user and making sure they add them in their updates. It is best to note down everything you want, from simple note-taking to complex databases. You can build anything and everything and the ability to customize and share it with a collaborative touch makes it one of the best platforms for note taking.
What do you dislike about the product?
One major thing I believe notion should add is drawing on the pages. We cannot draw or annotate anything on the pages. It is just typing. You cannot customize the page much, there's no way to change the color of the page. Also, it would have been great if the web URL could have started with our username so that we could convert it to our website.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion has increased productivity and helped cut down time with its awesome features that help in note-taking. Also its integration with Slack and features like import and export make it easier to work with your content and manage it properly. Also, its price is decent and it is worth the features you get.
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.
A software which helps you to do multiple activities under one roof.
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is very useful for takeing meeting notes, create to-do lists, and plan my daily work on marketing projects. I think it's one of the wonderfully tidy and simple to use. I've only been using it for a week, but I already know I am going to be switching to paid vision. Notion is amazingly flexible to use. The best part is that I can share my notes and docs to anyone and I can also monitor what access they must have. For a missy people like me this tool is god saver as it maintain and organize everything at one place and the work which we do also looks need and clean. UI /UX design of the software is amazing, and the app and website version both work increbility amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
With notion I only dislike one thing which bothers me at the start and also sometimes know that is I find it challenging to navigate the tools and some amazing features it provide.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me to maintain numerous meeting notes in one place, it helps me to keep the track of the work have have to do, which I am doing and which I have already completed, It helps me to prepare organisation notes which I have to share with entire organisation, It helps me to prioritize my work and mentain the record which needs to be done first and which at last and its the main reason to use notion is that it not time consumpting it helps me to do things in 5-10 mins which is amazing compared to other software out their.
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.
Easy and useful
What do you like best about the product?
A fast learning curve, Its interface is intuitive and almost anyone can start creating personalized tools for personal use or team use. Once you understand how it works you can start building from a simple to-do list to a more complex system as a CRM, planning tool, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't really use relationships for its databases, so you always need to create many-to-many relations if you want to create more complex tools. Also, you can share views to specific users of your team or guests with a filter so they only can see what you want them to see from a certain database BUT you have to share also the full database so they can view it in their filtered view. This makes the filtered view useless because they will also be able to view the full database so they can see data that only certain users should be able to see. They need to fix this so the users only can see the views shared with each one without the need to give them access to the full database. Otherwise, you need to create a database or table for each user. This would be the weakest point of notion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me with controlling tasks for my co-workers with a full system I'm implementing. Since we need to organize the tasks by client, project, area, etc. It's almost perfect for the job.
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.
A Collaboration and Productivity Tool that meets all of my needs!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Notion is super customizable. There are tons of free templates for you to utilize to edit and make your own. I use Notion to not only track work tasks and my school work, but I also use it for my personal life. It's just an awesome tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to download the files and still be able to customize them or download them and edit them in something like Google Sheets as not everyone on my team uses the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to keep track of candidates in my pipeline as well as to track candidates I am coordinating interviews for that I am not the recruiter. I also use it to keep track of work, school, and personal tasks to get done. I like to keep personal metrics in there as well such as company hiring metrics and sourcing resources that help me on a daily.
Better than the rest, great for individuals, good for teams, developers love it
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has a great user experience for the individual user. It allows you to take notes in many different styles. The text formatting is intuitive and straightforward. The hotkeys/shortcuts are great for powerusers. Most of all it's built with use by engineers in mind. There are native code blocks and code formatting. I love the idea of "blocks", which limits the first cmd+A select to the block, then if you press it a few more times, it'll select the whole document. It has made my note-taking iteration so much faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some rough edges. Because of the unique block model, there can be frustrating experiences with it. Selecting multiple blocks with a cursor often seems to not work as expected. Formatting multiple blocks at a time doesn't work well.
Collaboration is the biggest aspect that I dislike and is worse than competing products. There are still many things that can be improved around commenting; navigating comments, dealing with resolved comments, etc.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For individuals, it is a note-taking management system. All the features make note-taking faster and more enjoyable to use. In the broader company, it is a knowledge base. The formatting and UX has made it easier to add, modify, and view documents. Since it's so dynamic, it's also easy to collaborate and iterate on the knowledge base.
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!
