Notion: The epitome of software high performance
What do you like best about the product?
THE UI. It's sweet eye candy with the usability of a wizard. I have been writing PRDs and managing the product roadmap for more than six months now, and it feels effortless. There have been very few products apart from Apple which I can say that these "just works." Mostly it is so flexible that anything you want to imagine you can do. Be it embedding wireframes and mocks, managing roadmaps and teams. There are products that are built for a specific use case than there are products that empower the user to create any use case.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's quite slow and feels annoying sometimes. I particularly love the Spotlight-like feature in every product, be it Webflow or Superhuman, but sadly Notion lacks behind in this one, and the search is not up to the mark both in terms of functionality and in terms of speed as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I currently use Notion for:
1. Documentation
2. Managing the product roadmap
3. Managing the product team
It feels nice, and as I said, it just works, and I like the simplicity yet how robust the platform is. There are a ton of benefits that I can list, but I'll restrict to the best ones:
1. Ease of use
2. Almost zero learning curve
3. Flexibility

Just try it and see if you can get free credits under the startup program, you can get 1000$
Highly functional note-taking space
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Notion allows me to have a little bit of structure, but is also flexible enough for whatever I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be a little frustrating to use - like when I want to format text, it would be nice if when I highlighted text I saw options like Medium.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a great thinking space when I don't quite need Miro.

The best tool for productivity and organization, both professionally and personally!
What do you like best about the product?
I live how flexible and powerful Notion is. It allows for so many workflows like a Kanban board, tables, managing multiple databases of files for certain pages, sharing information internally with a team, and driving productivity. It also servers as a great way to take quick notes when on a call or organizing my own to-dos. As a team, this has really helped everyone work together on big projects and break things down into small, assignable chunks. We have used a main central template for bigger projects and assign smaller parts to functional areas and this has worked exceptionally well for us. Essentially a whole workflow process dedicated to way our company has chosen to work which is super valuable!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the flexibility across several users causes some confusion and doesn't have many guardrails in place to really keep everyone using Notion the same way. One issue we had ran into was several different users had their own opinions about how the layout should look and work, which then caused some teams to not be as organized as others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Notion for my product development process, including discovery, competitive analysis, conducting customer interviews, and writing requirements for the development team. It has been an essential part of my success and pairing with other functions like Design and Engineering!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Appointing someone as somewhat of an admin for Notion templates and workflows is super helpful in making sure you can handle a broad set of use cases, while not causing chaos with everyone creating pages and templates in one department.

Notion allows us to house Company Documentation Easily!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how intuitive the program is. It's so easy to create new documents and link documents together for an easy user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
When writing up a page or document, sometimes I find the formatting options a little bit limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We house all of our "tips and tricks", "useful resources", "basics" for each role, and so much more for each role and department via Notion.
The long-time search for a all-in-one workplace is over
What do you like best about the product?
Finally, there is an app, which You can use to organise all the stuff You've got with the necessary context. You can store content as pages, tables, boards and lists. You can use many of available templates or create Your own ones, which does it for You. No more separate apps for tasks, knowledge bits, reading lists or helpful URLs - in Notion You can do better!
What do you dislike about the product?
As it's still a relatively "new" app of course it has it drawbacks: sometimes it's not super-fast (especially if You have a lot of information in pages and tables), some things are sophisticated (not saying "complicated" on purpose, but some people may struggle with a few features) and as there is no "one pil for all" templates You may find Yourself lost in the number of templates procided and, later, even frustrated as You still don't know which one to use. A "learning curve" is the word and for Notion it really takes some quality time to know Your instrument.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I started using Notion for my work - I store and update information about my team, activities (projects, researches, presales and etc), log meeting notes and maintain knowledge base for myself and my colleagues. I used to do it all but in different apps (Things, SharePoint, Trello, JIRA, Confluence), but when You don't keep it connected sometimes You lose focus and context. Now that I have all bits of information connected I know anytime: who, where, what. The best thing for me - I started logging important decisions on Projects (how we prepare and conduct testing, how we prepare release, etc) and know I can easily shre this info with the project team and even appeal to these notes before client to support previous arrangements.

A1 Productivity tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Notion is easily the best productivity tool there is for a company - large or small. It's a one stop shop that teams can use to collaborate, delegate, and manage, keep everything organized and keep a track of their goals and tasks. It is very easy to use - one can create pages from scratch, color code them and even duplicate pages. It is also so simple to edit something in this. Above all, it makes working in a team so transparent and smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel it can offer a little more options in terms of fonts and colors. The interface can be bettered too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Notion to define, track and manage individual as well as team goals. We also use its 'public' feature to announce our event details. It just makes team collaboration really easy, transparent and healthy.
