Notion: The epitome of software high performance
What do you like best about the product?
THE UI. It's sweet eye candy with the usability of a wizard. I have been writing PRDs and managing the product roadmap for more than six months now, and it feels effortless. There have been very few products apart from Apple which I can say that these "just works." Mostly it is so flexible that anything you want to imagine you can do. Be it embedding wireframes and mocks, managing roadmaps and teams. There are products that are built for a specific use case than there are products that empower the user to create any use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's quite slow and feels annoying sometimes. I particularly love the Spotlight-like feature in every product, be it Webflow or Superhuman, but sadly Notion lacks behind in this one, and the search is not up to the mark both in terms of functionality and in terms of speed as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I currently use Notion for:
1. Documentation
2. Managing the product roadmap
3. Managing the product team
It feels nice, and as I said, it just works, and I like the simplicity yet how robust the platform is. There are a ton of benefits that I can list, but I'll restrict to the best ones:
1. Ease of use
2. Almost zero learning curve
3. Flexibility

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it and see if you can get free credits under the startup program, you can get 1000$
Highly functional note-taking space
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Notion allows me to have a little bit of structure, but is also flexible enough for whatever I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be a little frustrating to use - like when I want to format text, it would be nice if when I highlighted text I saw options like Medium.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a great thinking space when I don't quite need Miro.
Amazing to keep all my resources in one place!

A1 Productivity tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is easily the best productivity tool there is for a company - large or small. It's a one stop shop that teams can use to collaborate, delegate, and manage, keep everything organized and keep a track of their goals and tasks. It is very easy to use - one can create pages from scratch, color code them and even duplicate pages. It is also so simple to edit something in this. Above all, it makes working in a team so transparent and smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel it can offer a little more options in terms of fonts and colors. The interface can be bettered too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Notion to define, track and manage individual as well as team goals. We also use its 'public' feature to announce our event details. It just makes team collaboration really easy, transparent and healthy.
The best software for startups and productivity
What do you like best about the product?
The software can be used for a wide range of purposes, including taking notes, creating to-do lists, managing projects, and organizing information. This flexibility makes it a great tool for a variety of different users, including students, professionals, and teams.Notion offers strong collaboration and sharing capabilities, which can be useful for teams or individuals working with others on projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
otion has limited integration with other software or systems. While the software has some integration capabilities, it may not be as comprehensive as other productivity tools. This can be an issue for users who rely heavily on integration with other tools or systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I struggle with keeping track of my work, tasks, and ideas; at times, I may have to use various tools and systems to manage this information. The notion is designed to bring all of these elements together in one place, which can help users to streamline their workflow and improve productivity.
Customizability at its best, a rich community and constant innovation
What do you like best about the product?
Notion lives up to its claims of an all-in-one productivity workspace. From maintaining lecture notes that can be structured based on customized templates, to keeping track of class attendances, top questions and points to discuss in class using calendars, to using timeline views to manage schedules, Notion has helped me and my tech-starved colleagues to take to the fully online mode of instruction very aptly.
Access sharing is easy, pages can be exported to PDF/CSV to be sent to administrative staff, and stuff is way more organized in the hierarchical structure than it was with the Google Docs-Google Drive combo that we used earlier.

What do you dislike about the product?
The mobile app could use some responsive improvement. A lot of the times, moving around tasks and delegating them to other departments needs to happen when one is not in contact of a physical machine, and it's a pain to do it on the mobile app. Integration support with GCal has also been a long time coming, and having to make do with community driven third party tools works, but isn't good enough as a native integration
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems being solved :
- Attendance management
- Lecture notes
- Class schedules
- Theses planning
- Seminar flow planning
Benefits
- Single document store to house variety of use cases and artifacts in a hierarchical fashion
- Extremely customizable, meaning that it tweaks to our requirement, not the other way round
- Appealing to the eye - we actually feel like using it, rather than looking at it with the same dread with which we open our emails

Feature Management Solution
What do you like best about the product?
You can format each "feature" or project however you want - add questions, link to other cards, tag people, etc. Because we are using to capture development, design and marketing teams this flexibility is mandatory and helps so much. It helps every team understand the roadmap as well as capture the source of truth for discussions, details, etc. It is ideal that the tool exists outside of each team's separate company software (Teams, Slack, etc.) so everyone has the same access.
What do you dislike about the product?
The desktop app never works on PC, which is frustrating. It would be easier to utilize the desktop app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We did not previously have a unified view of our product's roadmap. Notion helps provide that view and allows for the flexibility of prioritizing work and changing those priorities if needed. We are also able to more easily break down features into MVP, and then link multiple different features together.
Great tool to organize a team
What do you like best about the product?
Easy and intuitive customization. Easy to create a system that can scale with your team, and tailored exactly to our needs at the time.
What do you dislike about the product?
We often find ourselves wishing that the inline tables could be left-aligned on pages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using notion to organize the operations of each department of the business. It replaces what would have been multiple subscriptions to multiple tools.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get familiar with the / hotkey. When you first create your account, play around with the different templates to see what process you like. Make sure you utilize the different views available for each workspace.

Has improved my workflow, but hard to use on iPad or mobile
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to create structured notes, wikis for the company and maintain them rather than a lost archive of hundreds of notes.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very hard to use on iPad and Android mobile apps. Basic things like selecting multiple lines and copying content are missing unlike the web app desktop experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better note-taking, remote collaboration across the company for wikis, projects etc.
