A helpful tool for my needs
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is a good base platform for all of my projects. It's highly customizable, allowing me to make my system look nice and be useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like if there was a "randomize" option for formulas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have a very hard time organizing my thoughts in relation to my projects and keeping it all in one place. Notion is an incredible base for building upon and customizing for my needs. It also makes the process of organizing more enjoyable, as I get to make my pages pretty.
Comprehensive Tool with Room for UI Improvements
What do you like best about the product?
I like synced blocks a lot in Notion; that's the biggest highlight for me. It's decent as a knowledge management system. The initial setup was easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Moving blocks around in Notion is a pain. Editing in general is just meh. The version history isn't as good as Google Docs. You have to select the line instead of the full text on the line to drag and drop it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion provides a single source of info for everything I need, from project management and knowledge management to inter-team communication and updates across the organization.
Effortless Note-Taking and Planning with Notion
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion for managing all my notes, important stuff, and plans. It's so convenient because I can use it everywhere, even on my mobile. I appreciate that there are many templates available; they really help me plan and document everything. What I like most is its simplicity in design. The note-taking capability is amazing because there are lots of functions to customize my text. I can decide how I want my text to appear, like code, quotation, callout, headings, paragraphs, and much more. I love that it has links to other pages, which makes a lot of work easier. Overall, I find it to be an excellent app with no major dislikes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for managing notes, plans, and everything. It solves the problem of accessibility by being usable everywhere, even on mobile. Notion's templates help organize and document everything efficiently.
Versatile All-In-One Tool with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I use Notion for keeping notes, framing goals and plans, and as a to-do list. It helps me add images, videos, calendars, and other graphical tools to make my notes more creative and comprehensive. It serves as a one-stop solution for organizing my day-to-day life, so I don't need to store passwords separately or use other apps for calendars, to-do lists, or notes. Notion does it all. I love its versatility compared to other apps and the flexibility of experimenting with different ways of representing information. Its easy features let me customize and add widgets, bullet points, and embed images and videos and even publish on the web to share. In general, it's faster than other document editors out there according to me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes sync takes a lot of time. Tables as a widget could definitely be improved. Imagine if Notion had enhanced capability like a spreadsheet, you could literally add a budget sheet within a document with formulae, etc., and while Notion has that capability to some extent, I believe that needs improvement. The learning curve is a bit steep to be honest, but the product managers have done a good job in guiding beginners these days. For me, when I started using it 3-4 years back, it was pretty tough to get around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion as a one-stop solution for organizing my day-to-day life, eliminating the need for separate apps for passwords, calendar, to-do lists, or notes. It streamlines everything and enhances creativity with graphical tools.
Efficient Onboarding and Intuitive UI with Notion AI
What do you like best about the product?
I love using Notion for its clean and easy-to-use UI, which makes navigating the platform effortless. Notion AI is an incredible time saver since it can write docs for me. It's also a big help for onboarding, as it quickly and efficiently finds answers to my questions by sourcing information from the internet and our company docs and Slack conversations. I appreciate how Notion AI links these sources, allowing me to verify information and ensure the context is correct. The initial setup of Notion was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
When you open a link in Notion AI, it doesn't open a new tab, it just redirects. This makes it difficult to navigate back to the conversation. In addition, the older conversations in Notion AI are kind of hidden. I looked for them on the side bar similar to ChatGPT but you have to go to the dropdown and then select. This is a little bit hidden.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion AI helps me find answers quickly by sourcing from company docs and Slack, linking them for verification. It saves time by writing docs and makes onboarding efficient.
A Game-Changer for Organizational Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Notion is very organized and the templates are beautiful to get you started. They help the person creating the document to do it in the most functional way for all viewers and collaborators. It also helps with AI and everything to do proper documentation. The templates are visually enhancing, and it's a good way of communicating as you don't have to think it up yourself. The AI feature is great; I can talk or write a simple explanation, and Notion turns it into something better. I also love that it helped us centralize our communication and documentation, which we didn't have before. Now we do, and it's been a game changer. Notion has made it accessible to everyone in our organization with certain documents locked to individuals or groups, but many are available to the whole organization - so its great for security and hierarchy needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think at one point, I did try and use a template, and it gave me the wrong one. However, you can always just go back and redo it and it's not an issue. I just think that sometimes you have to do a little tweaking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion solves our lack of documentation by providing a centralized repository for all our policies and procedures. It's accessible and visually appealing, especially with its templates.
Notion is great but your AI is dogshit
What do you like best about the product?
easy to compile ideas, organise data, brilliant UI + highly customisable
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion AI is the biggest pile of horseshit I’ve ever used (slow, inaccurate) unless I switch to one of the outsourced models (e.g. GPT-5) and even then it can be buggy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps keep my life in order as a busy, chronically-ill, and extremely forgetful college student
Streamlined Product Management with a Few Quirks
What do you like best about the product?
I like Notion's design, which supports my project and product management tasks effectively. I also use and value its databases and pages. Additionally, the initial setup was easy, making it straightforward to get started.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how copying from ChatGPT and exporting to slides sometimes doesn't work smoothly. The integration with ChatGPT works only sometimes, which can be frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for writing product requirements in project and product management.
Powerful AIAssistant & Tool for Productivity & Knowledge Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can see different views of my data in a list, calendar, table, etcetera, which gives me a lot of options for formatting. The AI features are very powerful and have allowed me to move a lot faster by rebuilding the database in Notion using prompts, instead of doing it manually or in Excel. It makes it really easy to organize all of my projects in one place and keep track of tasks, which has been really helpful. I appreciate the pre-established templates because they make it easy for someone new to set up different workspaces, and I like that I can customize them instead of starting from scratch.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the filtering could be improved because there are so many controls, which makes it difficult. Once you understand the base feature set and shortcuts, it goes a lot faster, so some kind of training would be appreciated. I was also confused when my data disappeared because I had the wrong filter set that wasn't showing it, but the prompt helped me figure that out and reset it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion makes it easy to organize my projects in one place, track tasks, and speed up documentation with the AI assistant. It offers multiple data views, helping me move faster than Excel. It's great for setting up job trackers, research repositories, and team calendars.
Outstanding Meeting Transcriptions and AI Summaries
What do you like best about the product?
Meeting transcriptions, AI summaries, organising random notes and thoughts. Super easy to implement and integrate with other tools and platforms. I use it every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Absolutely nothing to report in terms of downsides yet. All good so far!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Meeting notes is a big win for us. The way in which Notion captures and summarises lengthy meetings for us has been a game-changer.
