Notion Reviews & Product Details

The ability to fully customize it, the different views for databases, being able to share pages to collaborate with your colleagues, being able to search your entire workspace!!! For me personally the biggest game changer is the relation property. Being able to link tasks to projects is really amazing.

literally nothing. It would be nice if I could search under specific pages intead of under all of the workspace, but without losing the ability to search the workspace, which is one of the most powerful tools in my opinion.

It is making all of my notes and literature review fully searchable and allows me to work in the same platform. Also useful to work in the cloud and be able to collaborate with others in such a customizable environment, very much outdos any other platform.

Notion has replaced my planner, my idea notebook and my content management system.

There's lots of features and quite a learning curve!

Before using Notion, my work was spread out all over the place. I have never before been as organized as I am now using Notion.

Notion can be as simple as a repository of notes that can be enhanced with a number of 'block types', from weblink previews to code blocks to PDF embeds. Or it can be as complex as several relational databases that can be used with filters and sorts to only give you the context-specific content you want to see. The pace of development recently has been great to see, with lots of little quality-of-life improvements but also some major improvements to how data can be handled and viewed.

There could be a steep learning curve to setting up Notion, but that's mostly on the user since it can be as simple as you want it to be for the most part. Lack of offline access is annoying at times and a dealbreaker for some, and when databases get too large performance takes a hit. Exporting options aren't the best.

I mainly use Notion to manage my PhD, using a Notes database to dump anything from lab notes, reminders, meeting notes, resources, etc. that can then be categorised and filtered according to actionability and category. I also have a Projects database to keep track of all the different projects I have going on, which is linked to the Notes database. It removes the worry of "where do I put this", "where DID I put this", and gives me all content related to whatever I'm working on in one place. I also use Notion for my personal life to manage the hundreds of articles and general content I read, to organise them into areas and resources that I can get back to when they're needed, and use them to start projects without the fear of a blank slate.

Notion makes it possible to organize your work in a way that is unique to your needs. I use it for managing products, as a knowledgeable, and as a place to jot down notes and ideas.

The learning curve can be steep. Also, it is easy to try to do too much in notion, which can result in a messy space. Lastly, the search feature could be so much better than it is today.

Notion helps me manage products from ideation stage to launch.

Team collaboration is the best aspect of Notion. Being able to give my developers tasks and have a good overview of task progression is something I really need in my company.

I don't quite know, I think everything works more or less flawlessly.

Notion is solving many problems for our team, most notable ones being that everyone is able to follow up on certain tasks. I prefer it more than JIRA or any other PM tool.

I like the simplicity of the dashboard and the ability to take notes and keep tasks on track. Sometimes I stop using these tools because I get tired and bored. But Notes has been working pretty neatly for me so far. I am not that organized, but I like Notion is there for me, helping me to remember things and warning me about others. For the moment, this is what I need. Also, it has decent support, and it's much appreciated.

I feel that the browser extension lacks some functionalities, or at least it doesn't work correctly. The extension has no updates. Images not captured. Database missing.

It helps me manage my time more efficiently. Helps me organize my days but primarily for taking notes about my day-to-day activities. It also helps me to manage my calendar events in a better way. I can insert a variety of elements that I show/share them with my team.

I've been using Notion for over a year now and I'm completely hooked. I can manage my personal and professional life so efficiently. Among Notion's highlights are the wide variety of templates available and the ease of integrating the account into different operating systems and browsers.

I cannot identify negative points in Notion. Tecently I had to contact customer support and the response was quick and accurate. Definitely one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had.

Notion is helping me keep my personal and professional life organized. I can create and manage my projects anytime from anywhere in the world just using my cell phone. Notion helps me conquer time and freedom.

Easy to use Easy to improve Easy to develop new

In french would be a great step forward !!!

Develop and share easily project management tools Teach basic database magement Have fun Simplify my teaching activities

The formatting flexibility and the fantastic power of databases have really leveled up our documentation/internal wiki.

Sometimes, the flexibility is overwhelming, specifically with databases. We end up having some colleagues who create new database properties or options - it would be great if we could lock specific properties or page sections vs the entire page or database.

Source of truth, open form note taking, replacing the madness of google drives.

The flexibility of the app itself and in how much different ways it could support and improve your daily work. It also perfectly fits for private coordinate and planning like I use it for example for my wedding planning.

There is not really something I dislike, but maybe only some issue we had with features that are deprecated now. But there we maybe also misused notion and it's features concerned rollup of a rollup.

Project status tracking is done with notion and as well documentation of requirements or customer information, functionalities etc. We also use it for monthly revenue planning and starting controlling with it.

Notion has helped me organize everything, from school, to to-do lists to tracking expenses or wish list items. It is the best way to keep everything organized together, compared to other apps where you might need a combination of apple notes, to-do list apps, and other tracking apps. With notion, you can keep track of everything in one app, in a tidy, and aesthetic way.

The only downside of using notion is that at the beginning, it looks a little overwhelming, but as long as you follow tutorials, or just copy templates and customize them to yourself, it is easy to get started. Once you understand the basics, it is very easy to build pages for yourself for whatever you need.

Notions helps me keep track of homework that is continuous, not just a database. It changes every day and is easy to add/subtract new tasks. It also allows me to sort things into different groups, or filter out specific info, when I am keeping track of notes or information.

Notion is a versatile productivity tool that offers several features, and what I like best about it is its flexibility. The timeline feature helps me keep track of my projects, and the table management feature makes it easy to organize my data. Additionally, the various views, such as calendar and board views, allow me to visualize my tasks in different ways. What's great about Notion is that it can be as easy or advanced to use as needed by its user, depending on their comfort level. It is a perfect tool for personal use, team collaboration, and project management. Overall, Notion is a powerful tool that can simplify your work and help you stay organized.

While Notion offers a lot of useful features, one of the things that I dislike about it is that it can become slow and less responsive at times, particularly when working with larger databases or more complex pages. However, it's worth noting that the Notion support team is usually quick to respond and fix any issues that arise.

Notion is a powerful productivity tool that solves several problems, making it an excellent choice for individuals and teams looking to stay organized and productive. One of the biggest problems Notion solves is the issue of scattered information, as it allows users to consolidate all their data into one place, making it easy to access and manage. Notion also offers a wide range of templates and tools, making it an ideal choice for everything from project management to marketing research. As someone who uses Notion regularly, I have found that the benefits it provides are numerous. For example, the ability to organize my work and collaborate with others has helped me be more productive and efficient. Additionally, Notion's marketing research templates have been incredibly useful in helping me organize and analyze data related to market trends and customer behavior. Notion's benefits aren't limited to individual use either; the platform's team collaboration features have been incredibly useful in product launches, helping everyone involved stay on track and aware of the project's progress. Furthermore, the ability to create press releases and share them with the team has streamlined the process of launching new products and features, making it easy to communicate important updates to both internal and external stakeholders. Overall, Notion is a powerful tool that solves several common productivity problems and offers numerous benefits to individuals and teams alike. Its range of templates, tools, and features make it a valuable addition to any workflow, and its emphasis on organization and collaboration makes it an essential tool for anyone looking to stay on top of their work.

I ignored Notion for a long time despite some good friends, who I trust, recommending it. I just didn't see what the fuss was. Turns out I was wrong (not for the first or last time). Its initial simplicity hides a lot of features - but at the same time, it's this same simplicity that makes it very easy to use. Like all great tools, it can do a lot more than most people use it for, but there aren't hundreds of options cluttering the interface and making you scared to use it. And when you need more advanced features, there are likely to be there and easily accessible. Clearly, a lot of thought has gone into Notion's UI/UX.

Not a great deal to dislike. There could do with adding webhooks (there is an API which is useful for many, me included, but it doesn't do everything and webhooks would really make it superb).

It solves the problem of having data all over the place (as much as any tool can). You can put almost any data into Notion. Whether you want to is up to you, but even when you put data in other applications, there's a huge range of embeddable options so you can probably display it in Notion. It's my goto store for data. From complicated projects to simple note taking. No more hundreds of text editor/notepad files left open with forgotten but important notes.

Notion is the perfect framework to build the precise tool you need, whatever your level of skill. And whatever you build now, you can improve and omptimise later on. I literally couldn't do my job if I didn't have the ability to reference any and every material I've created -- and it's all in one place.

Notion has its own learning curve -- nothing too scary. If anything, once you learn the basics you're more likely to overcomplicate things. So, remember: just becase you can do it doesn't mean you should!

I'm a freelance teacher. I need to keep my books, create lesson plans, create homework materials (which should be reusable and thus referenceable), organise schedules, keep track of student information, etc. Notion allows me to focus on work, rather than juggling 5+ pieces of software.

The way it centralises information from all areas. Makes it easy to find documents and information while maintaining a level of professionalism. Can also be personalised

The database system can be very clunky I find personally, and I also think that there are not enough options for data categories. Daya feels very trapped in the strict boundaries of database

It keeps a journal and ledger of all activities of employees. Each employee finds it easy to use and has picked it up very easily, even the older ones who are mid technophobe!

It's the best personal organization tool there is. No competition gets close. It's neat, simple to start using, yet complete in features. I like how everything can be connected, searched for, mentioned etc. The hierarchy structure is awesome too. One of the latest features I liked the most was the sub-item and parent-item in databases.

1) Slow to load. It's getting better, but I'm used to faster apps on Windows and Android. 2) No offline access: there's no way to choose pages to keep offline on your phone. It's also getting better, but many apps already allow offline editing, saving, etc. 3) No automations. The first automation came very recently, with the recurring templates. But some IFs and THENs would be a great addition to the databases. In Trello that is very easy to do. ClickUp has been showing off that feature on their ads too. I think it's time for Notion to catch up with the features of its competitors. 4) Sometimes I experience bugs when writing fast on Android. I think Notion tries to sync everything in real time and then I experience some lagging issues. The last words disappear for no reason.

I use Notion for everything in my life. Everything is there. Personal projects, notes, references, task list, documentation, catalogs... It has solved every organization problem I had. Now I put all my notes in Notion and can easily find them. I can mention them in other pages, structure them in a database etc. Every planning I have to do I do in Notion too. Sometimes I need to use Google Sheets and Forms too, so I embed them in Notion, so I don't have to leave the platform at all.

I love how versatile it is. Allows me to put tables, graphs, embed links for video etc... it is perfect for reports such as the monthly shareholder report. 😊🙏

Honestly nothing. I love it. I guess it has so many features that could feel a bit overwhelming, but it is ok once you learn how to use it.

I send a report to shareholders every month. I use notion to do that in a way that´s structured and consistent. It also helps for accountability to keep all pervious reports in the same plece.

Notion helps me manage my tasks and projects. I can see everything I'm working on at a glance. I like that it allows me to build my own custom workspace. I've recommend it to every organization I work with.

I can't say there's anything I dislike about Notion. If I'm to think hard about it, I'd say probably the fact that Notion AI sometimes produces non-factual output.

Notion helps me stay organized and consolidates the major features of all the tools I used in the past into a single workspace. I used to have a problem with people I manage being unorganized. Now I simply create a templete for them so they can handle my work in an organized manner.

There's a variety of different ways to store information all in one place. The creativity allowed and the versatility of Notion is very impressive. I haven't found another solution that can do so much in one place.

Occasionally I wish that more advanced features were easier to find. But the external community around Notion helps fill those gaps.

Notion houses our knowledge bases, general documents, and some light project management. Having all of those in one place reduces friction and helps us communicate faster and more effectively.

The minimalistic approach to everything. Reusable blocks. Speed. Everything is just amazing. Plus, the ability to quickly share the documents is on another level.

The only thing I do not like about Notion is not being able to use my own domain name for sharing. It has to be with notion.so prefix which is annoying because I have to share these links to my enterprise customers.

Every process is our company is being documented on Notion. Our SOPs are all aligned and team is super productive while following these procedures. Plus, the whole team is on the same organization.
