Great Wiki for both personal and professional
What do you like best about the product?
Mostly full autonomy on stylizing and formatting without the huge learning curve associated with teams at scale (as well as the ease of collaboration!)
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the functionalities for tables/charts can be a bit limiting. Personally, the emojis can also be a bit distracting
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With full autonomy comes a bit of issues with updating across teams. Luckily though, there is an activity log to view revisions.
What Evernote & G-Drive Should Been
What do you like best about the product?
OH MY GOD, THE PRICE. Notion should be charging way more for the value it provides. + the Fluidity of the platform and ease of rearranging information, pages, sections, and relating/connecting documents and pages. Goodbye to the nightmare of hyperlinking everything
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functionality is limited, i.e. PLEASE ADD CRM INTEGRATIONS WITH SALESFORCE EVEN IF ITS LIMITED. Additionally, if I have an excel sheet with data that needs to be added to an already existing table, I can download the notion table and merge it with the CSV but I CANNOT upload my CSV to the notion table it nor copy and paste the entire data set to it. I have to add the data field by field/one at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing customer research and simplified ability to collect, organize and gather the information that excel does not allow for.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Literally, Notion will eliminate this scenario: 'that series of documents' held together by hyperlinks that you keep trying to get your team to refer back to because they 'forgot about the info in them' or 'don't know where x info can be found'
Great tool to gather all your important notes and work in one place
What do you like best about the product?
It's simple to use. It's a bundle of different tools at a very reasonable price. I think that's one of the best solutions when you're freelancer. You can use use it professionally as well as for the personal organization.
What I like in Notion in the freedom you have to create what you want the way you want. I use it for my OKR (work) as well as for my next christmas wishlist (personal).
One of the most important Notion features is a powerful note-taking. You can add a list, plain text, videos, sound, code snippets
You can personalize it by adding nice images.
You have nice templates you can use such as meeting notes, personal CRM, or project management.

What do you dislike about the product?
You really need your other colleagues to dive into Notion if you want to get the full potential of the tool. If some other colleagues prefer using tools like Trello, Google Agenda, or Confluence, you lose some benefits of the system.
I think the price gets a bit high when a whole team is onboarded into Notion. There should be a more reasonable price when there is big group of people.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps you get organized. You can easily create agendas, to-do lists and organize your documents. You can link it to other tools such as Google Drive.
You gather everything in one place. I still using Google Agenda and Google Drive but it makes the hub between all my tools. You can link or import Google sheets or Google Docs as well as Trello projects.
The best feature I use is Projet Management for my personal blog. I write a lot and contrary to Google Docs, Notion helps me to gather all my notes, images and links in a clean and proper way. Combined with the project management system, I know what I need to write next, or what articles need to be reviewed.

Best collaboration software!
What do you like best about the product?
Very helpful to keep everything you need in one place.You can keep track of all your work in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
The load time of Notion is quite slow both in mobile and desktop application. It will almost take 30 seconds for the mobile app to load which is very frustrating. Faster app load time would make the user experience very smooth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing of day to day activities is very helpful using Notion features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Notion is the best application for managing, organising, planning all your activities. Don't think twice. Give it a try.
Great if you use it properly!
What do you like best about the product?
With Notion’s minimalist approach, Notion takes home the win. In Notion, you can change your database to view the gallery, list, table and board view, even calendar view! They're all easy to read and fully customizable. Notion can fill in tons of gaps in your team’s organization. Where other platforms fall short, Notion has come up with a solution.
When it comes to collecting documents on Notion for further use, you have almost no limitations as to what type of document you can use. For notes and docs, you can upload documents from your Evernote, Word, Google Docs or Dropbox Paper, which means that you no longer will have to worry about scouring these programs individually to find a certain piece of information.
It doesn’t stop there though—you can embed tons of information from a wide rather of apps and programs, like Google Maps, Twitter, Typeform and Codepen, right into your Notion docs. Your team revolves around tasks and projects, so Notion has a great solution for integrating your other project management programs to help keep everything in one place.
For example, you can import your Trello boards or Asana’s team management tools into Notion to organize and manage all from one spot.
By integrating other powerful tools, you can fully harness Notion to manage, monitor and communicate with your team.
However, if you’re not already using a workflow or project management tool, Notion has its own unique system of creating and managing workflows. It can become the project management tool you always knew you needed.

What do you dislike about the product?
I’d recommend people do their research into what features are the most suitable and whether Notion meets those needs. Whilst Notion can be used as a Trello, Todoist and Evernote replacement, it isn’t going to fulfill all the needs you and with these applications.
From my own opinions, it replaces Trello - due to the board nature and databases - but not fully Evernote and Todoist right now. To fully replace Evernote it does need a little more focus on note-taking, and with Todoist it needs a LOT more.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For tasks and projects, you can choose from list-style templates like to-dos, checklists, and workflows, but you can also select templates with varying formattings like the calendar template or the roadmap template, which are both designed to help you organize and visualize upcoming tasks and projects.
Collaborate on policies with Notion!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Notion handles security and version control. I can tag a specific set of people and whenever there are changes, I am alerted via email that one of the people has edited the document.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how it's hard to track your documents over the months and years. I've written several things that have been lost in obscurity. It would be useful if there was a directory.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is our knowledge base throughout the company for policies and procedures.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend Notion. I do not know of any other software out there that is like it and that can be used on a company wide basis.
A do-anything text based organiser
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to use the keyboard to generate all kinds of items from simple notes and lists, to To-Dos, toggles, reminders, up to full fledged database type entries.
What do you dislike about the product?
As with anything this powerful there is a learning curve. However, there is also plenty of contextual help. You can encounter most possibilities just by typing slash/.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has replaced Evernote for me as a daily organiser, note taking and work planning app.
It's not a complete replacement for Evernote (which kicks ass btw) by any means, however it excels in this important aspect.

Great tool totally free for students
What do you like best about the product?
Notion has a very clean and slick look and feel to it. It is easy and intuitive to use and lets you work in a personal workspace as well as in separate work workspaces.
I used it heavily for planning and writing my thesis. The minimalist style made it easy to focus while writing and editing.

What do you dislike about the product?
When I last used the desktop app is had some issues that prevented my from using it (this was around a year ago though so it may have been fixed). The web based version works great and is what I have been using
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Random note taking, thought organization, to do lists, editing. It is an all in one work system for small teams or individuals
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Simple and slick
New to Notion, but loving it!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion definitely helps in keeping conversations organized and keeping track of projects. The dashboard is very easy to follow and shows you all of your overall projects in one trackable place.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, we haven't run into much trouble
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have seen that it is very easy to use, that all teams pick it up quickly and it gives you a good quick overview of the progress of all projects. It also integrates with slack, so all updates can be included in a specific channel so teams know what is happening at all times.
Notion - Life Organized
What do you like best about the product?
I like the pages and the integration of spreadsheets with the calendar view
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was further options for the size of text and boxes. I tend to like to see everything in one view without scrolling, and being able to shrink the text further would allow that
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Personal and work organization. I like being able to check the to-do lists off and then re-categorizing points as completed or whichever label I decide. This allows me to keep track of what I'm working on while keeping track of what I've already completed
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for software that integrates seamlessly through your desktop computer, Chrome browser, phone app, and more, this is the one to do it. You are able to upload existing spreadsheets and create pages using the data. Then you're able to extract and filter the data as you please and turn the form into a calendar or a to-do list.
