Great tool for organising the team

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion has massively helped organise all of the workload of my business. It is easy for everyone to use and adopt and very intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've not been able to build a good timeline template and I would like to be able to share pages with clients so they can see track our progress real-time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion ensures eveeryone in the company is clear what steps there are in each project and who is responsible for each task. The customisable pages make it easy to create top line reports for managers.

Useful organizational tool

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a great tool for solo use with detailed project tracking, or for team use. I like that you can create a work breakdown structure of complex initiatives and assign these to teammates.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a bit of a learning curve at the onset. It helps to have some time to fiddle around with it, and understand that the first way that you organize a project on it won't be the best way. It will go through iterations until it's most useful to you and your team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a useful repository of written knowledge through the project process. I often go thru notes from several months ago for important details. They're easily searchable for key terms.

I want to use it for everything, I use it for somethings

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Just works UI, has a variety of different widgets, and little overhead (compared to OneNote, which is very clunky). It means I can "just get stuff done". UI is clean and minimalist
What do you dislike about the product?
No ability to use it offline which means I can't rely on it to be there when I need. Image handling is poor — image upload takes a while and during upload the image is rotated 90 degrees. I can take directly take and insert a photo using my camera on the IOS app, but once I have done this, I cannot crop the image.,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A platform-independent solution for writing and organising notes. Suitable for journaling and organising ideas, todo lists and project concepts. I also use it to draft letters and emails.

Fantastic productivity tool

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is extremely flexible, allowing us to build custom workflows and link information together easily. It's quite intuitive, so it's great for notetaking through to record keeping
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally the UI appears to lose files, but when we refresh or contact support it gets fixed quickly
Calendar integration would be great (especially with webdav / caldav)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A central repository for information

It's great for school!

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
While organizing a college life, I use Notion to make sure that I'm on top of everything, including my assignments in school events. While it's not just for college students, it can be used in the workforce or personal use.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Notion is the lack of encryption and limited amount of creative widgets out there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Outlining the notes for school since ready I'm down on pen and paper is not beneficial for me anymore?

Apps useful for creating documents

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can create professional materials easily and for free. It has a higher design quality than PowerPoint and is easier to manage than WordPress. It is also rich in features, allowing you to embed YouTube videos and images. If you register for a paid plan, you can embed videos directly. I create materials to share with others, and Notion is well-received because it allows for detailed documentation.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pigment is generally light, so it's not suitable for creating impactful materials. If you increase the number of materials too much, it becomes difficult to manage and tends to get cluttered. The app is convenient but can also become quite heavy. Especially the smartphone version of the app is heavy and I haven't opened it. The two-factor authentication during login is a code sent via email, which is quite cumbersome. It also logs out automatically, making the login process a hassle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is useful for creating materials to share with project members. Notion allows you to create simple and easy-to-understand materials, so I prefer it over PowerPoint or Google Docs. It's easy to use and you can create well-designed materials without any coding, so I really like it. It is also highly rated by the members and is reputed to be easy to understand.

Notion experience

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion is fairly easy to use and has a simple design. There is a lot you can do with it including project management, creating a personal agenda, organizing company information, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like to see Notion add more creative options. As it stands, there are limited font and color options. It would be nice to change page backgrounds and fonts to match our company brand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is currently serving as our company intranet. Our teams have their own "teamspaces" whereby they store all of their important docs and other information in their individual wiki's. I use notion for my personal agenda/to-do list, and I also manage our company homepage where we list upcoming events and other pertinent information.

Notion is the best container for knowledge

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notion has done what no other project management, knowledge base, or task master software has been able to do before - it's made creating and updating pages fun.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve to become a daily power user is a little steep. When launched amongst a group, it feels like some users don't catch on as quick and miss out on the fun.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is allowing us to build a product across timezones without missing a beat. Knowledge is captured and shared easily. It is organized in a way that makes sense and is easy to navigate.

Great product with ultimate flexibility

  • February 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There's endless possibilities in Notion to adjust to exactly how you want to structure it. I love that I can create my own pages and organization while working within the parameters of a team.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems to run slower in the web app than the desktop app but the web app is easier to navigate through.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is the backbone of our company, we use it for everything from order management to a customer database. The integrations allow us to connect with most of our other platforms to create a one-stop shop for our users.
