Review on Notion

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Ai has been great for giving me a starting point on writing prompts, emails, etc. I also appreciate the customization of pages.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have too many complaints, but to nitpick, it would be great to allow custom database columns (such as google maps location and then being able to see the map in a different db view).

Additionally, sometimes it is hard to completely delete notion pages as it's good to have them for historical purposes. Perhaps there could be a good way of archiving content or a way to exclude these pages from being searched/indexed. The main problem I have with keeping old pages up is that when I try to use Notion Search, it's littered with references to old pages which I specifically do not need to look through.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me stay sane by making it pretty easy to stay organized. The main benefit is also being able to share and collaborate with others.

Notion is great!

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Notion is its flexibility while being aesthetically pleasing. As someone with a short attention span, Notion allows me to make my work fun while pushing the limits of my creativity and skills.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I love many of the integration capabilities Notion has now, they can be improved and expanded on because I had to turn into a mini coder just to figure out some of these integrations that aren't provided (ex. notion/Zotero)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem it has solved is creating a space for my academic writing and task management, and it has also made my work projects easier to keep track of where I can make a workspace for each project.

AI is a game changer

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion itself is a great organiser. My current tool of choice. It's simple yet powerful. With addiction of AI Assitant it became even better. I already can't imagine writing texts without it.
What do you dislike about the product?
AI assistant features sometimes are a bit clunky to activate. You need to select the text and only then can choose what you want to do with it. Also, I lack text stats such as number of words, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use notion to plan my personal tasks as well as work streams. Nothing beats Notion in terms of simplicity and intuitiveness. I use AI heavily to help me write better texts, emails, narratives.

Precious help

  • March 28, 2023

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is an app with a lot of functionality in one place. Very useful to keep information and to get organized. Being able to create pages within pages is something that helps a lot!
What do you dislike about the product?
Spreadsheet functionality should be simplified. Spreadsheets are complicated to create. Notion could take inspiration from Google Sheet to make its spreadsheets more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visually, it is easy to organize your business.
AI helps a lot in preparing answers to send to its different collaborators. The translation and sentence tone tool has become indispensable to me.

Very good, but will undoubtedly be great.

What do you like best about the product?
The AI feature is a real gamechanger. It has been profoundly helpful, but seems to be built on an older version of GPT. As it continues to grow, it will clearly be even more helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search functionality is getting much better but is still not quite where I would like it to be in order to fully replace Evernote. There is also a step and sometimes complicated learning curve that makes basic takes a little more complicated then they need to be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am primarily using Notion for research purposes. I combine Notion with Readwise to keep a database of my Kindle notes and my degree notes. The AI function has been really helpful in providing writing prompts and possible ideas for blog posts, social media content, and of course, ideas for writing papers.

Great product overall - AI is useful, but not a must-have

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is great for managing several projects and mind mapping. It's easier to use and more intuitive than the alternatives. The Mac and mobile apps are also very clean and super responsive. The added AI feature is very handy, but not a must-have for most users. For $10 a month, however, it's much easier to have it included and use it to help improve writing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using it as a collaboration tool could use some improvements. Sometimes finding things can be difficult given the hierarchy setup of the platform. Would like some more features when it comes to linking other pages and tying pages together.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of all projects, such as workflow and project management. Sorting and analyzing thoughts. Writing and editing are much easier than with the other alternatives.

Notion Review is Great

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the way that notion is able to act in so many different parts, not just as a planner but also as a tracker for all the day-to-day needs. It keeps of everything in my life and can also be used as a storage space.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there is a hard initial learning curve to actually become good at notion, it took sometime for me at the beginning to really understand what I wanted and what I needed notion to do. It has a lot of different pathways to be used, so I get that it is hard to start into, but there should be a more detailed template or tutorial built in to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving a few problems, it allows me to put everything into one working space that is a database where I can search for information. It also allows me to organize different aspects of my life and keep accurate trackers of what needs to be completed as well. With the addition of Notion AI, it has helped me to be even more productive by giving me idea and also helping me to solve problems.

Notion is my second brain

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how flexible and valuable Notion is. It allows me to design all the productivity systems I need without coding experience. I use Notion for all my professional and personal note-taking, as well as a tool for storing information about people I know and accounts I hold.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside to Notion is that there is no offline option. I wish I could sync my data to my devices locally so that I can use the app offline and easily back up my data. I've left Notion before for this reason and continue to search for alternatives that offer this feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is solving my need for a centralized note-taking system to act as my 'second brain' for all personal and professional information that I need to keep track of.

Great Tool for Students looking to take note taking to the next level.

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of use and the organization tools, as well as the AI implementation within the Notion app.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside that I see is the cost of the AI, which is understandable. The AI is also not as powerful as a service like Chat GPT, but is sufficient enough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is helping me to keep my notes organized, while their AI allows me to gain insight into topics that are discussed that I need further clarification on.

Writing feedback regarding Notion AI

  • March 28, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Templates feature on Notion has been a game-changer for me. It saves me so much time and helps me work more efficiently, which is especially important when I have a lot of different projects going on at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when I alt+tab into notion, it takes a lot of time to respond, which is why on windows, the notion app tends to be a bit slow. Maybe if the app was made faster, I would not have anything ti dislike about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps divide content easily into different pages of the same sub category. Which helps in knowing where all my work is being kept at.
