Notion is evolving
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Notion has a variety of different ways to store and manage data. It's a well-rounded tool that has become a favourite for my team.
The new AI feature is pretty good. I have used it quite a bit to improve my writing over the last few weeks. It has been a nice addition to my everyday use of Notion.

What do you dislike about the product?
The AI does need some improvement. It is a little repetitive when I select 'try again.' It seems to only have a few options to choose from when I ask it to 'try again.'
The major area of Notion that requires improvement is the database.
The performance of the database feature needs to be improved. When there are a lot of columns or rows, it's extremely slow.
The databases also need more options to safely store and manage data. Things like being able to freeze rows, and lock columns would be very useful. We switched a large amount of data into Notion, and we spend quite a bit of time fixing accidental changes.
Alerts are also missing from the database. It would be great to complete task hand-offs seamlessly using Notion.
Another feature that we desperately need that is missing is the ability to combine dates from multiple databases into one.
New features seem to be rolling out frequently, which is good, but I wish some of the current features were improved first before jumping to the next item.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have switched the majority of information that we were managing in spreadsheets to Notion and created large databases that house tasks from multiple teams. Our data requires a lot of filtering and sorting, and Notion has been a step up from spreadsheets for these features.
Ease of use and excellent AI function
What do you like best about the product?
AI has been a game changer, and I like the different options Notion offers e.g., big heading, call out, and more. Using Notion has made organisation very easy and has made it easier for me as a busy student.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I will have to complain about is that Notion doesn't allow for automatic capitalisation when you start a new sentence. I cannot explain how frustrating this is when you are in a hurry/in general. Please introduce this option as a matter of urgency!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion allows me to get my thoughts on to paper, sometime it is hard to articulate what you want to say well and Notion is very helpful in this area. I think that fucntions like AI are incredibly useful especially with how fast paced the digital environment is, and the need to eradicate tedious tasks using AI makes everyone's lives that much easier.
Love Notion!
What do you like best about the product?
It acts like my second brain. I put almost everything in it and have definitely shared this both with my friends in my circles and people within my business community.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how much time I have to spend designing databases. I know there are a plethora of templates, but goodness, sometimes I spend more time designing a page than actually using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In business, I was trying to solve the issue of coming up with social media posts. Especially on times that Chat GPT was down and being really really slow. So Notion's AI really had helped me in a pinch.
I also really like the summary feature for my notes.

Near perfect
What do you like best about the product?
The free flowing, highly customisable platform. This provides a brilliant tool for collaboration and sharing information with people and partners. No other platform has given the flexibility to add the elements I can in notion.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notions export and printable formats are particularly bad. Which means the offline sharing (sending pdf's or printing for a meeting) fails to capture the quality of the platform. This needs improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is a personal note taking and summary assistant. It is the one stop shop for all personal and professional thought and note management and is a database for research and writing projects.
Notion complete review!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is very visually appealing, which is one of the best parts of the application. This said, I always tell my friends that the ability to embed other apps makes notion such a powerful application. The database function is easily the reason why I use notion. Another very helpful thing is the autonomy that is given to the user. This is much appreciated as a computer science student who is not a novice in technology because I feel I have more capabilities than in other programs.
What do you dislike about the product?
The major downside of notion is that it is not widely used. I think over time; this will change. Another thing is the lack of a social aspect. I believe that a messaging addition could be helpful. I have only used notion for personal use, so this may already exist. A way to link a calendar to google calendar would be amazing because that is what people commonly use for meetings etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It generates my daily to-do list. It stores all of my notes etc which is extremely helpful. I also have many virtual spaces I work in and notion unifies them. I do use notion as an ai tool. A chat tab would be helpful rather then just the in page use
Most organized I have ever been.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that I am able to create pages with my own style and flair. The ease of use in shortcuts is fantastic as well. Product also allows people with not a lot of time to get organized while also offering more complex ways for people to develop productivity systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have noticed that when I shortcut some thing with / such as changed the background color, my cursor goes away and I am not able to hit enter on my keyboard. I have to manually click the screen for the cursor to reappear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a master's CS student and notion is great for organizing my notes as well as my goals. I am able to track assignments and exams across all my courses with the calendar feature, and can overlay my general calendar with these details as well.
Game Changer!
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion to help me organize my school notes, thoughts, tasks, books I read, and various of other things. One notable feature is the new AI writing Assistant. I use this feature in my studies. For example... I'm learning to code in Python and like to keep a database of everything notable within my Python book. I'm currently going through the section of Python IF Statements: To speed up the process I ask Notion's AI Writing Assistant "You are a cybersecurity professional and need to explain IF Statements as it pertains to Python, please be descriptive and give examples". The writing assistant will generate a whole section of Python IF statements to include example code for your future reference. Put in the work and minimize the monotonous tasks = maximizing YOUR time. Did I mention it's fun. That's what Notion does, it puts the fun back into organization. As I said before, game changer!
What do you dislike about the product?
Although I do not really enjoy the yearly fee, I can appreciate that the quality and attention to detail that comes with this product is worth the cost, and I respect that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Through maximizing my time and having direct access to the databases I create, I am also able to provide this knowledge to other people. Notion also gives me the option to solve future problems more efficiently. As I continue to learn and explore the world of Notion, the number of possibilities seems to grow exponentially.
Notion Review from design school

What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have any cons at this time. I think Notion is great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping to organize all of our projects, meeting notes, and the AI functionality has been helpful in optimizing our workflow.
Awesome Product - Saves me hundreds of hours, literally
What do you like best about the product?
The AI feature is the powerhouse behind the #1 reason why I enjoy using this product. I can access anything I need straight from the User Interface. It makes life a little more than crystal clear.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don't like is that the User Interface is a little "touchy" when clicking around within the app. But other than that it's overall mostly upside.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It streamlines my creative process. I no longer need to spend hours daily looking for and organizing information. With Notion AI, I can have it all under one roof.
An amazing tool. I recommend to everyone!
What do you like best about the product?
As a marketing manager, it's the perfect tool for collaboration and centralising all our key tasks, projects, and resources. It's made a huge different to how we work and collaborate as a team.
What do you dislike about the product?
No much, but it would be great to see slightly improved commenting functionality, ability to create reocurring tasks, and better functionality with tables.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralises tasks and project management. It's note-taking capabilities are the key improvement over other platforms, which is great as a marketing team.
