Notion has helped me so much as a student and programmer
What do you like best about the product?
I'm a student who has just heard of notion a year ago and I have been using it a lot for keeping notes, tasks, classes organized. I also love the incorporated AI assistant and suggested prompts that it gives. When I started learning programming, I had no prior experiences. The AI assistant has helped me so much with writing documentations.
What do you dislike about the product?
I want to say that while Notion is basic, it's definitely not easy to use or customize which can definitely be overwhelming for new users.

The AI assistant has helped so much in writing program documentations and explaining terms.

I had a notion and Notion scratched the itch
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is flexible and then some.

What do you dislike about the product?
Notion's weakness? If there is one it might be that it can do so much. Secondly, sometimes it feels as though one can get lost in the formatting.

It is an intuitive tool for managing projects.
It is a wonderful tool for logging ideas on a systematic way.

Notion is a very flexible, versatile application - with some updates it could be more powerful
What do you like best about the product?
Customization
- ability to create custom and reusable modules/blocks/templates (i.e. toggles, lists, tables, columns, etc.)
- ability to create folders and subpages
AI tools
- Notion AI is also useful for completing tedious tasks. For example, if I am working on submitting a grant application in an online portal, and it doesn't use rich-text formatting, I may need to use different cases in order to refer to film titles (as opposed to italics). With AI, i can tell it something like "change all italicized text to uppercase text instead." The standard ctrl+F/replace all tool in Google docs or Word does not apply to formatting, so having AI help with this has made certain processes more efficient.
- Having AI embedded into the app/platform also makes it easier/faster to work on things, as opposed to going to an AI platform on a separate browser.

What do you dislike about the product?
- Notion's desktop app seems to slow my computer down, so now I only use the browser version
- For some reason, the AI tool doesn't work properly when you are in the new-page pop-up window -- it only works once you are in the main page after the new page was created
- AI doesn't yet process large amounts of information -- maybe have clearer parameters so I know what it is capable of and what it isn't capable of
- For some reason, there are certain table templates that have embedded icons in the records that I cannot remove. One of Notion's strong points is its rich customizability, so this should be factored into the templates as well -- users should be able to modify most components of a pre-created template if they want to
- Consider adding subgrouping levels to the tables
- Consider allowing users to re-order automations

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- AI helps with tedious tasks that would take longer to do manually
- Easy to create to-do list items, collapse them, delete them, select multiple at once and apply changes/edits
