Use can use those features simply by clicking/symbol and typing the feature as you want while taking notes.
I love it!

What do you dislike about the product?
It was a completely new platform for me. So I struggled a little at the beginning to get used to it. But this platform provides you with different tutorials, examples, ready to use templates so you can easily adapt your project and start using it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it's very easy to create, edit, and share internal documents with the team. You can also create database tables and put links to those files. It's an excellent feature to see all documents in one place and reach them with one click.
Best product for personal productivity
What do you like best about the product?
I cannot think of a better tool for productivity. Often in my work I see people misusing different tools such as Presentations to share detailed lists of tasks, or Text Sheets to enter tables and numbers. Notion succeeds in being a flexible tool for every marketing activity we want to do, from strategy considerations to to-do lists.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer to have simpler sharing options for those who do not have an account in Notion and simplified file export for sending documents by email. So far we found some work around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I always had my to do list in an unintuitive and flexible excel file.
Notion allows me to keep my to do list updated according to individual tasks and according to deadlines with the calendar option. Notion for my team is a terrific tool for sharing and storing documentation on our projects and OKRs

What do you dislike about the product?
Missing workflow components (described in more detail recently also via chat in Notion to customer support)
- missing email, mailing list (can have web page but not email or mailing list), also with own domain - e.g. if coming with own domain as website - as most Notion account types are offering unlimited storage
- missing chat, webinar features (text, audio, video chat) with recording feature, also Gravatar support - basically similar feature set as in Telegram
- missing proper calendar app

- searching information

Highly Interactive and easy to share with team
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has a structured interface that helps to sort things quickly in different headers and has always been consistent over the previous updates. No major changes and ease pf use
What do you dislike about the product?
It is somewhat difficult to share a note with people who don't use notion as the web version lags way too much and they have to download notion for a seamless experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps to jot down the points in a structured way and helps to create business plans effectively and easily interpretably. It is not complex and can be handed over to an intern to work upon.
Notion: The Swiss Army Knife of Business Applications
What do you like best about the product?
The blank-slate canvas that notion provides is both very intimidating and promising. It has the ability to create databases that can be connected to other databases. It has very rich note-taking capabilities that even alow for a LaTex-like language as well as support for many programming languages.
Overall, I would highly recommend this tool especially if you hate using things like spreadsheets and wikis to document and track things.

What do you dislike about the product?
It is not the most out-of-the-box intuitive application. You can't just open it and know what you're doing. It requires either watching videos or spending a lot of time exploring. I would not recommend using it without going through those steps first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- A robust note-taking application for different math and development courses that I take.
- Keeping track of different personal or work projects that don't require interactions with developers.
- Managing personal databases of things that I want to keep track of like restaurants that I usually go to, or home renovation projects that I'm working on.

Useful, but could improve dramatically
What do you like best about the product?
I like the elements you can add, and the interface seems excellent - the History is super helpful, and the ability to soft delete is essential. To add a new element is easy and fast, never fails, and section subdivisions & drag-and-drop features work pretty well! I like the ability to create different record types in Databases (multi-select "tags", links and so on), and the table capabilities are pretty extensive. The Icons can be added anywhere, and that's another blamazing feature. Love all the toggle types (with the H1 and normal text and so on)
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish adding the HTML elements into the notes would be more extensive and/or granular: I miss multi-font documents (like disclaimers in a smaller or different font), colors for text and in general, the granularity you have in classic HTML. Confluence does a better job in that. I totally dislike the absence of "last edited" with the date and "by" with the Author in first line, because I need to click to see the history if I wanna know if a file is old or not. I think the pages should have the lock ability also as a button rather than 2-clicks. The databases should maybe just be tables (with DB under the hood, they are a tad confusing when compared with normal tables - none is perfect). The folder stucture of the menu should also be hierarchical rather than a plain unstructured list. I wish elements should have different names when I search, because if I look for "collapsible" or for "toggle" I mean the same thing and we all know that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organising notes, keeping track (with date) of events, tagging elements (in tables or databases), but in general manipulating unstructured text to look structured (with fonts, bold, colors, sections, collapsible elements).
Notion is the place to organize and document your work or even life
What do you like best about the product?
Everything is linkable with @ tags you can reference any document, create reminders or tag teammate's
Beyond powerful no code workspace building and document editing notion ties everything together making it easy to search information across the organization, it even has a Omni search bar

What do you dislike about the product?
Notion could improve its document editing capabilities to better match excel , word and PowerPoint .
There are still times the office package is necessary for external presentation, complex spreadsheet databases or word documents

Notion is the HQ and hearth of a company.
You find all you need to get onboarded , it's your knowledge hub on projects, teams, and the org.
For smaller companies it can even be used for task management susbstituting a range of tools like the atlasian suite

Notion is theone-stop shop for team coordination and creativity.
What do you like best about the product?
Full cross-departmental and cross-project integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would love to see Notion implement Google drive connectivity without Zapier or plugins.
We have a lot of databases that live in Google drive, it would be grand to be able to simply point to source data.
Additionally, would love to see the MERGE CSV functionality be able to remove duplicate entries.
All of the above apply.
Would also like to see AI as a native function rather than an upgrade.

Notion is by far the best organizational tool in my life.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create different pages. I have so my on my plate, but it's easy for me to separate my personal and work life using Notion. I stay organized when all of this information is out of my head. I can think much more clearly and stay pretty calm without worrying if I am missing something.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not anything I dislike about Notion. However, one suggestion that I have is adding significantly more templates. Sometimes I get overwhelmed by the idea of creating a new list or page. I'm not ever sure what the best way to go about it is. But using the templates, I find it easy and convenient just to plug in my info. So if there were more templates, I feel like I that would enhance my experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It keeps everyone in the company on the same page. While making calls, we can input a lot of information into Notion so that there is minimal need for back and forth, giving us more time to be productive.
I started using Notion and it changed me and those around me.
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the design of the Notion product itself.
It is easy to write things down about myself and my work, organize my mind, and clarify what I need to do now.
Each person who uses Notion has his or her own Notion, and it is a wonderful tool that also allows people to show each other their Notion screens and share their enjoyment.

What do you dislike about the product?
I have no complaints about the tool itself. In fact, I rave about it.
However, it is a tool that is strongly unsuitable for beginners.
One thing I would like to see Notion do better is to create a "tutorial" for new users.
While Notion is multifunctional and can do just about anything, those who are just starting out will find themselves in a state of "I don't know what to touch," and in the worst case scenario, they will dislike it and stop using it. This can be seen in the reactions on Twitter in Japan.
I would also like to see notifications in the tool when new features are updated.
The update information is very helpful for Notion users, but it is very confusing. At the very least, it would be nice if there was a pop-up window in the lower right corner of the Notion screen with the update information. on the bottom right of the Notion screen.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion has the advantage of helping you organize your mind and clarify what to do next.
In terms of work, it clarifies tasks that need to be done.
It also allows for manual creation and sharing, so you can write down what you want to write down and share your work.
It also has an embedding function, which is useful for embedding images - Google Map and all other aspects.
I think the advantage of Notion is that these can be done easily.
