Essential items for organizing and sharing work!
What do you like best about the product?
I have the advantage of being able to write, organize, and edit at will.
It is an essential solution that can be quickly expanded to work as simple contents initially written are organized.

What do you dislike about the product?
For first-time users, it may be difficult to expand and use various functions. It takes time to get used to. But once you get used to it, it is an indispensable item.

Organize and share. Organize and share is the key to all work. In particular, well-organized content has the advantage of being able to quickly remember and check the next time you find it.
Greater with Notion!
What do you like best about the product?
I have enjoyed very much to be able to customize the features to fit my needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I still find it difficult to understand the logic behind the databases. I understood you can have a master and then link this to other pages but I still encounter problems when I do this.
Not related but I dislike the error uploading the screenshot on this review.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management however the scale of it becomes so much easier when you can have everything in one place. I find this ideal not just for business purposes and teams communicating better but for personal project too.
Great tool for documentation
What do you like best about the product?
The customizability of documentation, and the ability to nest and link pages to each other.
Simultaneously editing makes it easy to collaborate with other team members remotely.

What do you dislike about the product?
When Guests who own pages on notion leave the workspace, pages become inaccessible to members.
Sharing pages with guests after recent updates may accidentally add them as members of the workspace due to the UI changes

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are keeping documentation up to date and adding interactive elements to keep members engaged while reading lengthy documents.
Keeps our documentation organized instead of a folder of word docs.

Great tool for internal documentation
What do you like best about the product?
There's a lot to like about Notion compared to most wikis I've dealt with:
* Great typography
* Easy to understand the version history
* Block formatting
* Solid media handling (especially like the SVG support)

What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest pet peeve: You can easily nest pages inside each other, creating self-explanatory hierarchies, but there's no way to have it expand the sidebar to show where your current location.
I don't fully understand their data model, and sometimes it seems you need to. For example, you'll find you cannot delete a column from a table. I guess the tables are implemented as a database, and it picked that field as the primary identifer which you cannot delete. So you have to swap things around to get your actual identifer in that column and then delete the other column.
I wish they had a clear pattern for user-specific pages. For example, I can create a private page and manually add people to it, but it would be nice if each user had a page by default and could create children for specific topics.
There's some kind of glitchy behavior around the auto conversion from Markdown, especially if you paste in sections with code formatting. It tries to turn code blocks into inline code and makes a bit of mess.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team uses it for almost all of our architecture and planning docs. We can easily include screen shots, videos and architectural diagrams. The commenting features make it easy to discuss specific bits.
I'm not an active promoter but Notion is a really worthwhile app
What do you like best about the product?
It's a MS Word on steroids. I can use Notion to create fancy pages for others to read: instructions, post mortems, rules, plans, lessons, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it messes up with Grammarly or other text browser extensions.
It also didn't work as a project management tool for our team. We use the Linear instead.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Notion, content creation became insanely fast. I use it for instructions for other people: team members or students.
It's the easiest way to focus on what matters
What do you like best about the product?
Thanks to the power of its databases, Notion allows me to quickly find any information, even if it's from a long time ago. This gives me peace of mind and allows me to move forward in other areas of my work without stress.
What do you dislike about the product?
Databases are currently very powerful, and having so many options can be overwhelming. It would be good if they could be simplified a bit without losing power and customization capabilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion saves my time when i need to search any important document of my company, also search personals documents, help me to organize my projects.
Also help me to manage inventory of products, manage important payments of services and be creative, increase the speed when writing my ideas.

Great
What do you like best about the product?
I can manage all things I need for work and for my personal life. We have almost all our company data in notion, for example, managing all tasks, backlogs, data about products, and customer support data (we collect it there, because then it goes in backlog).
What do you dislike about the product?
It usually falls down if I have opened a few pages of notion in the browser (chrome). For example, I need to plan tasks for a week for developers, and in one page, I open weekly planning, and on another kanban desk to orientate. And then one of them is freezing, and nothing helps.
Also, it became not handy to create kanban desks for four and more columns, I need to open settings and properties, and then I don't even remember, I have to open the answer video from your support.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything for my team in one place. Don't need to switch to different places to work. And it's easy to use. Don't need to pay for many services either. And also I can see everuthing my team does, because all pages are opened for everyone. Everybody knows everything what's going on
Makes sharing documents and ideas very easy
What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the ease of sharing documents and getting a doc in shape with minimal effort. Since, I am a coder and the people that I share documents with are also coders, working with Notion feels very intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the way tables works in Notion. They look very nice and easy to use to but at the same time it feels like being stuck inside a walled garden. The tables are not flexible if you want to use them for some specific tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I did not like Google Docs and Word because there is a significant overhead associated with creating a new document and then formatting and everything. Notion provides very limited number of options in terms of formatting and the UI is overall nice so it's much easy to share your ideas with other people.
Strong Product Management/Intranet Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is powerful, easy to use once you learn the / system, and can accomplish most tasks you might want to use it for
What do you dislike about the product?
Notion could use more call outs in the platform to educate people on how to use the different features. Note taking could be cleaner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion helps our team keep documents & Projects organized - it helps us by providing a simple, searchable system to hold important information.
