Flexible and Personalized Campaign Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?

Customization and Shareability at Core, Search Needs Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I love Notion's customization and shareability. I enjoy building pages, using widgets, and different inputs to create something from nothing and being able to quickly replicate pages. The filtering function is very helpful for list building. Pages can be private, sharable, exported into landing pages, favorited, and grouped, which makes it very handy for creating external-facing deliverables.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe it’s just me but it can be flooded with a lot of things and hard to find specifics since various users are creating resources on Notion. Our HQ is in France, and a lot of the content/context is in French and has never been translated or converted. Because things are worded differently in English and French, it's hard to just search and find things I need. Things being hard to find is probably the biggest issue I've had. Smart search is helpful but maybe making it smarter based off language guidelines. Inputting some settings that allow things to show up or translate easier from one language to another in the search would help rather than trying to Google translate and play the guessing game.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is an easy-to-access platform that everyone can contribute to, offering layers of organization for various file types and needs. It aids in building pages with widgets, filtering lists, and sharing or exporting pages, making it handy for creating external-facing deliverables.
Flexible and User-Friendly, But Offline Mode Needs Work
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the flexibility of Notion when it comes to adding new things and changing the text type to any toggle or heading. This feature helps me maintain a proper document for my career as a software engineer, and it helps me a lot. The initial setup was very comfortable and easy to understand. The interface is very clear with a better UI/UX, making it kind of well put together and quite nice for my needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Notion doesn't perform well for its offline mode. It would be more helpful if there was an offline mode where we could store and work on documents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion to maintain proper product documentation, and its flexibility helps me organize and update my documents effectively, which is essential in my work as a software engineer.
Automation Powerhouse with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion to create policies, procedures, learning databases, and automatic tools that my team uses daily. I like the interconnectivity it offers and the automations. I'm able to set processes that end with sending out an email and track ticket completion efficiently. I also appreciate the variety of fields and tasks that can be performed in Notion. The initial setup was easy for my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I struggle with text formatting in Notion, and I'd like more options to build complex automations, like having multiple outcomes using the same automation box. Also, I wish there were more types of users and permissions because the current plans feel too restrictive.

I use Notion for creating policies, procedures, and automating processes. It solves email automation and project tracking issues, enhancing management and efficiency. The connectivity and versatility in handling various tasks are invaluable.
Powerful Collaboration, Needs Simpler Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I like the user interface and I love the databases in Notion.
What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps with centralized documentation, organization, and action item tracking.

Sometimes I feel like finding the right kind of format for my notes is a struggle, but for the most part I feel like that's a user issue not an app issue.

Streamlines Project Management with Ease

Easy Setup, Boosts Team Collaboration

I really appreciate how easy Notion is to use—it's very user-friendly and not rocket science. I love that it's visual, making it simple to get the needed information at a glance without having to dig into things. The collaborative nature of the platform is fantastic, allowing us to work together in the same place with real-time updates, so there's no need to find different documents or ask each other for updates. It really helps my team work transparently and in parallel, which is a big improvement over working in silos. We also found the setup process to be very easy because we used templates that were readily available.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really love Notion AI, but it's a bit annoying that you have to buy credits for it. It would be amazing if that just comes sort of included in the package.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves the problem of team visibility, reducing siloed work and enhancing collaboration. It provides a single place for project planning and document storage, helping us work collaboratively and efficiently.
Versatile Tool with Strong AI, Needs Better Task Templates
What do you like best about the product?
I find Notion AI very good for technical RFCs, and I especially like how quick it is to summarize or create flowcharts and other diagrams. The calendar is also helpful in organizing my tasks. Switching from Confluence, I appreciate Notion's ease of use. The initial setup for my team was pretty quick and straightforward.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel Notion's task management isn't as mature or organized as tools like Linear, especially in terms of simplicity and how it handles epics, tasks, subtasks, and milestones.
