The thing I like the most about Notion is its ability to use things like tables, spreadsheets, and embedded documents in its note/document. Before Notion, I would need to rely on pasting in links from sources like Google Spreadsheet or direct to another document. With Notion, I can easily access all these within a Notion Doc, and the best thing of them all? They load almost instantaneously.
I explored using it as the go-to knowledge center for my current team, but the pricing is on the steeper end. I am still evaluating the app when it comes to this regard.
The ability to use multiple types of note-taking in Notion saves me a lot of time. Instead of jumping between multiple applications, I can now access most of the things I need in Notion.
It is beautifully designed, making it pleasant to use. It is easily configurable to suit your needs. And when well configured, there is no better tool for collaboration and institutional memory.
Notion has a steep learning curve. To get the most out of Notion requires intentional upskilling and learning.
The AI Writing Assistant is the first time that I've added generative AI to my everyday workflow. It is an incredible copilot for summarizing and copy editing. It increases the value of the first draft by helping you make quick revisions.
Versatile and Customizable Workspace - NotionAI offers a highly customizable workspace that adapts to the unique needs of users. Its modular structure allows for the creation of databases, notes, to-do lists, calendars, and more, making it suitable for various purposes, from project management to personal note-taking.

It analyzes your notes and suggests related content, helping you discover connections and ideas you might have missed otherwise. This feature significantly enhances creativity and productivity. Collaboration and Sharing - NotionAI excels in facilitating collaboration among teams. It allows real-time co-editing, commenting, and task assignment, making it an ideal tool for remote and distributed teams. The ability to share specific pages or databases with external collaborators is a significant advantage. Cross-Platform Accessibility - NotionAI is available on various platforms, including web, desktop, and mobile applications. This ensures that users can access and update their information seamlessly, regardless of the device they're using. Robust Integration Ecosystem - NotionAI supports numerous integrations with third-party apps and services, enhancing its functionality and extending its use cases. This flexibility makes it adaptable to various workflows and preferences.
Learning Curve- While NotionAI's versatility is a strength, it can also be a drawback for new users. The learning curve can be steep, and some users may find it challenging to harness the full potential of the tool without comprehensive tutorials or guidance. Pricing - NotionAI offers a free plan with limited features, but the pricing for premium plans may be prohibitive for some users, particularly for small teams or individuals. A more flexible pricing structure or additional features in lower-tier plans could address this concern. Offline Functionality - NotionAI's dependence on an internet connection can be a limitation, especially for users who need to access their data offline. Improved offline functionality would be beneficial for users in such scenarios.Search and Organization - While NotionAI has search capabilities, some users have reported that it can be challenging to find specific information within a large workspace. Enhancements to the search functionality and organization features would be welcomed.

Artificial intelligence supported note-taking, document - information sharing, collaboration, data organisation,
The fee is high for a student. Inability to update individual interface
I can categorise and store my data in an organised way. I can create it with the headings I want. I use artificial intelligence support where I want support. I can invite teammates and work together.
Holy smokes...I've used Notion in the past on and off and am skeptical about apps that charge subscription fees for AI when I already subscribe to GPT Plus. The integration makes a huge difference in Notion.ai and the beta feature for Q&A is outstanding, a chatbot trained on your data? This is a gamechanger, not because it's the only app that can do it, but it's ease of use and seamless integration are amazing. I've been a longtime Roam Research believer, but they've fallen far behind and AI is an afterthought, whereas it's fully integrated with Notion.
Notion does have some complexity compared to other note-taking apps and it's not the only one with AI. Mem and others are also good, but I think in terms of sheer versatility, Notion.ai is a gamechanger for me.
It's hard to give Notion a single job. Many people refer to it as the operating system for their life. It's certainly capable of that (with some configuration) and what Notion can be is largely limited by your imagination. I'm using it to track projects, act as a knowledge base and manage projects.
For a fraction of the cost, you are able to "hire" an assistant, a social media, a ghostwriter, a researcher, etc. Once you get the hang of putting in your requests, it is quick and easy to get what you need. I use notion regularly for my podcast and social media planning and executing.
The learning curve is a bit steep, but once you understand how to use it, you quickly get on with your work.
Writing podcast episode descriptions. I create social media posts for every aspect of my business, including text, hashtags, image suggestions and the best times to post.
Very customizable, enjoyable experience. Wish Notion Ai was more accessible with cheaper pricing. I use it a lot for organizing school work.
Notion Ai is great, but costly. The features are good, but can be confusing sometimes.
It is helping me organize school work.
For work, what I like the most is that I can have all the information I need in one place, also the visibility it's a plus. It's very easy to organise and find things. I can also have separate pages and can share some of the pages with other users. Working in collaboration is great when you need specific tasks to be done or followed up, adding comments or adding reminders it's great to make sure you keep things on track. I have used the AI tool to improve writing or change the tone, and to help writting processes and policies. I find a bit expensive if you are already paying subscriptions so I hope it gets more affordable with time. For personal life, I use to organise information for personal development, like short course links, notes and to add anything relevant. I also use as a tool to organise my CV and writing down emails and cover letters. I have been using the AI tool for that and it's great.
There is nothing that I dislike about Notion, overall it's a great tool that I've been using for the long time. It might be a bit tricky to get used for the first time but, after awhile you see the value and how makes things way more easier to get organised and done. It's nice when you are in the stage of automating bottoms or adding databases, etc. I still have a long way to go in the usage and knowledge of Notion but, I don't see a reason to stop using it.
Keeping information in one place: I can collade all the information I need in one page and organise it the way I want Easy to find: The search box is great and the way that you can add things on pages makes intuitive and easy to see what you have stored Writing emails; documents; policies and having the help of AI Working in collaboration with my team: Visibilitiy and flow of tasks make easy to get the job done, getting notifications when someone has added an update or add a reminder or a comment helps to have the context and understanding of the tasks
