Product Description

Notion is a unified workspace for teams. Notion is a connected workspace where your team can create docs, take notes, manage tasks, and organize your work – all in one place. And now, with Notion AI, you can augment your capabilities in new and unexpected ways. Leverage the power of AI right inside Notion, across all your notes and docs, without the need to jump between your work and a separate AI-powered tool.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Notion is different in two ways: It brings all work together in one place, and it's so customizable that it can be modified to support any workflow.

Most productivity tool makers focus on solving one problem with one product. Notion's design lets you mold your workspace to serve a limitless variety of uses all in one spot. You can use it to build a product roadmap, wiki, and collaborative docs for your company in one central location. Or as an individual, to keep your notes, tasks, and journal handy and accessible at all times. You can start with a template, or build from scratch to personalize the way you work — at your job and in your life.

Notion blends your everyday work tools into one. Product roadmap? Company wiki? Meeting notes? With Notion, they're all in one place, and totally customizable to meet the needs of any workflow. It's the all-in-one workspace for you, your team, and your whole company. We humans are toolmakers by nature, but most of us can't build or modify the software we use every day — arguably our most powerful tool. Our team at Notion is on a mission to make it possible for everyone to shape the tools that shape their lives.

It did take a little to figure out how everything works and it was overwhelming to start but once I figured it out, everything is so easy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

An online system to take notes on clients in my group, social media managing and helping me keep track of what I need to do when i am launching new projects. I also love that it is multilingual and can help me improve writing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

What I like best about Notion is its modern interface that feels intuitive and easy to use. The customization options are great, especially the ability to personalize pages with emojis, making workspaces both functional and fun. It’s a flexible tool that adapts perfectly to different workflows and styles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

What I really don't like is the idea that the document or a page is very editable, for instance, I don't like to go to a Notion document to get some information and when I hover the mouse, it seems like I am trying to edit something, sometimes we just want to be the reader and get info not add it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

I believe Notion helps in managins very distinct data into a single page, making it easier to gather a table sheet for example, along with some links to other sites or documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

I love how I can keep everything in one program rather than have to use multiple programs. As I have used this from university to my working like, it has allowed me to keep track of readings, assignments, work documents and content creation and a range of other things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Sometimes, the formulas don't work, despite it being used previously on another page. And creating a new space from scratch can be time consuming to ensure that everything I need is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has allowed me to keep track of content that I have created for my work all in one place. It allows me to easily see what content I have scheduled and if necessary can easily change to a different date. It also helps to have all the relevant notes for each piece of content together. Plus, Notion AI has helped with rewording captions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

I really appreciate the endless possibilities for customization that Notion offers. It allows me to organize multiple areas of my life—professional, academic, and personal—all in one place. I find it very useful and rely on it daily for my tasks and projects. It has a wide range of tools and features that make it versatile and adaptable to different needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

While Notion offers a lot, I do find it difficult to integrate it smoothly with other tools, like Google Calendar. Additionally, the learning curve can be steep, especially when trying to set up complex systems. I feel that the platform could benefit from better support to help users get the most out of its features. The process can also become challenging for more advanced tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Notion is helping me save a lot of time by providing ready-to-use templates for new clients, activities, tasks, and projects. This allows me to focus more on the creative aspects of my work, which, as a designer, is the most important part of my business. With Notion, I can keep track of all ongoing projects and prioritize the tasks that need attention daily. Having everything organized in one place also reduces my stress; I no longer have to search in multiple locations for client or project information, which makes my workflow much smoother and more efficient.

What do you like best about Notion?

I love how customizable the space is for what you need. I use it for many freelance writing areas, such as compiling and organizing projects. I love all the features that have been added, especially the AI and the calendar, which can sync through the space. The AI assistant helps me search and organize my information while also being able to write what I need professionally when sending clients emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

At this time, I think the exporting options are limited. I would love to be able to customize exports (especially for printing) at a grander scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

Very easy to use, especially in terms of format.

The chatbot for searching the documentation works very well.

Notion A.I is extremely powerful for improving writing.

I find that the pages load very quickly; if I compare it to Sharepoint, for example, there is an enormous difference in loading speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I find it paradoxically complicated to share content. If I want to share a page with a colleague or friend, I have to authorize them to the page, there is an access request, I don't know. Everything is possible but there is often an "extra-step" and I think this aspect should be made easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's my note-taking tool, so I keep all my notes on it. If I need to work on a separate project and write, I put everything on it. I constantly use A.I. to improve my writing or to translate since I don't work in my native language. My big problem is with sharing via the web, I'm afraid of scrapers and potentially sharing "confidential" information with the entire web. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

its applications, especially it' templates are incredibly sueful and the AI capabilities are impressive. Super helpful for when I'm trying to find docs my team have made, or when I'm moving to a different area which happened a few weeks ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I find that there are simple things that it doesn't get right. one example is when I create a table but change my mind, there's no undo button or delete button for a table, I shouldn't have to restore a previous version, especially if I created a table and then created some other content but changed my mind. Othertimes I've had to jjust copy and paste everything other than the table and create a new page and delete the old page, shuoldn't have to do that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Locating resources is really difficult so it helps solve that problem really well, also the integreation into slack is helpful too. Also helping to organise a huge teams projects with templates is very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

I just started in a new company, all of their knowledge base lives in notion. Notion AI Writing Assistant is really a game changer. I can just ask notion AI about a topic and it would give the a complete answer that I can just copy and paste to send my customer. It would also give you the links to the documents in case I need to double check, and even look for conversations with the keywords on slack! Knowledge management couldn't be easier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I have no complaints, I had used notion before at other jobs and the hardest thing was to find what you needed, now that is as simple as an ai Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a new customer success member on my company, it makes it super easy to search for whatever I need. The fact that it can also search slack conversations is amazing, as it would provide me up to date answers to whatever question I ask Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

I use Notion frequently, from managing work initiatives to planning my vacation trips. I always recommend it to friends and acquaintances because of its ease of use and the freedom to have information in a simple and clear way. I'm a big Notion evangelist at work, and today it's even used as an official tool. It's a great achievement for a Notion addict like me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I find the date filters a bit confusing, and I often get lost when trying to define certain periods. I would also like the PDF export of a page to match exactly what I see in Notion; in some cases, it ends up breaking or changing elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Notion allows me to have a history of initiatives, keep track of what is being done by team colleagues, and most importantly, it contributes to more valuable notes and insights, which, when using AI, extract the maximum content from the information I present Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Notion?

Notion helps you organize your notes, and offers a collaborative workspace to share documents with other coworkers. The AI is helpful, if sometimes a little intrusive - I've used it to summarize meetings, and help me draft up documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Because everything is on the cloud, notion loads documents with more latency than I prefer. It's a similar problem to Google docs, when every document seems to take a while to load. Working collaboratively on the same document also poses challenges - the syncing is slower than Google docs, so you may not see changes made by someone else reflect on your screen until you refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Notion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Notion is helping me manage projects and documents. I frequently write project documentation and instructions in notion. I've noticed that the collaborative aspects of Notion have greatly improved since the last time I've left a review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
