A tool to scale team organization & engagement
What do you like best about the product?
Notion's UI offers a sandbox for any organization to build upon. Our team was able to leverage the easy-to-use UI to rollout a shared library of knowledge docs, team information, and HR materials. Notion has enabled us to improve team, organization and client communications. It serves as our company's "homebase," making it easy for us to share announcements, manage onboarding, create a community, and keep track of deadlines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting started with Notion is super easy but after you get your workspace built, there are some challenges in scaling. As an advanced user, there's fewer resources on how to maximize your instance to leverage database details or other features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion is providing a "homebase" for our organization. We had no location to centrally hold announcements, onboarding materials, SOPs, etc. before we got Notion. Now the entire team has access to the documents they need to be successful.
A fantastic and versatile note taking and organisation app
What do you like best about the product?
Can be tailored to any function that you choose - from note taking, organisation and planning, to even mind map ideas... It is suitable for anyone, not only students
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a steep learning curve, taking a couple hours to grasp the hang of different blocks and functionalities which Notion is capable of. On iPads using touch is difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Notion combines organisation and note taking into one - I struggled to find an app to suit me because I wanted a specific layout for my notes and To- Do list that I could design myself
Notion has completely changed the way I work
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the tool is super flexible. I can create so many different types of content within one page, pages within pages, spreadsheets, etc. - and organise it all in a way better way than any other tool that I have ever used.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cant customise the font, and colours are limited. You can't comment on cells on a database, and the text formatting is difficult in cells in a database (no bullets for example).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for knowledge management, project management, planning (etc.) and everyone in my team can collaborate on it. I like it because my engineer, my CEO, my community manager etc. can all use it with ease and there is a very small learning curve.
Tremendously useful for product and cross-functional teams
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive, easy to learn and really powerful
What do you dislike about the product?
The size of the margins on the pages not being an editable option
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Implementations of new features with JIRA
Best internal documentation I've tried so far!
What do you like best about the product?
What I really like in Notion is the ability to create very quickly and easily nice and collaborative wiki pages. All our company data and knowledge is centralized in Notion and accessible for each team.
The database/view feature is also great and allows us to display one source of truth in different pages with different layout/presentations.

What do you dislike about the product?
On my opinion, the only missing thing within Notion is an internal analytics dashboard.
It would be very great to see which pages/sections are the most viewed or modified.
Also we cannot create a graph from a database, but some third-party (paying) plugins offer this feature.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem we had before Notion was that our internal documentation and data were spread around multiple places (Dropbox, Google Drive, Confluence..), with no central access/directory.
Notion replaced all these apps we were using and now centralizes all our company knowledge and data in one place. Easily accessible/searchable for every team and with a simple access control feature.

Easy to use, many capabilities, and good looking
What do you like best about the product?
Streamlined experience and customization
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacking some basic features such as recurring tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bring content, data, and people together in one place - consolidating process and tools
Very flexible, great for sharing information. Ideal for startups.
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to share content and materials with the entire team or parts of the team with a single click. The flexibility of so many content types and ways to present them makes it so useful as the go-to point for all users in the company.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a little time to get accustomed to using Notion. It's not exactly intuitive but there is quite a lot of learning material and there are useful templates available to assist on the learning journey.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Notion as our internal web. It's enabling us to rapidly put together documentation, processes and share information in a collaborative way, so that everyone can contribute to its creation and be comfortable finding the material whenever they need access. It is more effective, in my experience than SharePoint for this purpose and more flexible than Google Drive.
Notion for work and for play
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility and ease. I use a lot of applications for planning, tracking, scheduling, and completion of projects for home and work. I wanted a platform solution that was all in one, and while Notion is not there yet I do believe we are on track for me to offboard almost all of the other systems I use to monitor my life and work tasks, activities, and inventory. I love Notion so much, I quit Airtable and Clickup and have no intention of rejoining those platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to use formulas that are more complex and create recurring task lists and to reference other databases. This capability is not yet available, there are some discussions on future abilities and integrations I am excited to see where the app goes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Specifically for work, it holds the documents for project managing, how-to guides etc. I use it to track the progress of my teams through implementation and keep track of any issues and lessons I learn along the way.
Great work product with some limitations
What do you like best about the product?
I like how cohesive of a product it is - I can remain within my work ecosystem for every part of my job. It's a very smooth tool and the user experience has one of the best I've worked with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm unable to integrate Gmail or Google Sheets / Docs as easily as I would like. Also the iPhone functionality is way worse of a product experience than the desktop version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with a remote team is challenging, especially when dealing with databases. Notion allows for everyone to work together on a task at the same time. Without Notion it's hard to imagine that we'd be as productive as we are.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing about Notion that i dislike, just there are a few minor issues which are worth noticing & i believe the amazing team at notion will work on them:
- Live Collaboration and Pages Synchronization can be improved as updates made offile sometimes donot get synced properly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The notion is solving our workflow problems right from managing databases to managing content to even creating customer/Investor decks, We use the notion on daily basis for more than dozens of routine tasks. Instead of using multiple saas tools like Jira for managing tasks/logs of engineering team, CRM for sales & marketing team, We prefer to manage our most of the work on Notion by using various freely avialble templates.
