Notion became my default wiki/PM. Databases + relations + filtered views give me a lightweight CRM/roadmap without fighting a spreadsheet. Templates/AI and slash-commands make capture fast; embeds keep specs, Looms, and code snippets in one place. Downsides: performance on very large pages, granular permissions at scale, and offline still hit-or-miss. Versus Google Docs, Notion wins on structure; Obsidian wins on local-first speed. Four stars for flexibility with room to improve enterprise controls + offline.

I use it for everything—notes, to-dos, content planning, even managing my team. It’s super flexible, but still simple enough to not get in the way. What I love: • Pages inside pages inside pages (so clean). • Databases that actually make sense (to a non-technical person). • Easy to share with others and keep everyone on the same page. Downsides? Mobile’s still a bit clunky, and offline mode could be better. But honestly, it’s hard to beat for an all-in-one tool.

Notion provides a highly flexible and intuitive user experience, making it a powerful tool for note-taking, project management, and team collaboration. Its block-based system allows users to structure content freely, from simple to-do lists to complex databases. The minimalist design and seamless cross-device synchronization enhance productivity. However, the learning curve can be steep for new users, especially when setting up databases and formulas. Additionally, performance can lag with large workspaces. Overall, Notion is a great all-in-one productivity tool for both individuals and teams.

I love Notion, both because it is so easy to make high quality documents and notes with it, and because of its functionality across the board. That I can use it as a database that integrates nicely with Zapier lets me keep a todo list that covers all my todos across a whole stack of tools, and it works seamlessly for taking notes in Zettelkasten form.

Having leveraged Notion across several complex projects, I'm continually impressed by its power and flexibility. It has effectively become our team's single source of truth, seamlessly consolidating project roadmaps, task management, and technical documentation into one accessible workspace. The ability to create interconnected databases is a standout feature, allowing us to build custom workflows that traditional project management tools can't match. For any team looking to eliminate information silos and enhance productivity, Notion isn't just a recommendation—it's a necessity. Kudos to the makers for executing this vision so well.

Notion is my digital headquarters. It’s where every campaign idea, content calendar, and brand note lives before anything goes public. As a social media manager, it keeps my chaos beautifully organized; as a community manager, it helps me track conversations, assets, and collabs in one place. I love how flexible it is. You can build anything from a CRM to a content planner without touching code. What could be better? Honestly, the mobile app still feels a bit clunky when you’re updating things on the go. But for building structure in a fast-moving creative workflow, Notion is hands-down my favorite organized mess.

Notion is an incredibly well-crafted product — it blends flexibility, collaboration, and clean design in a way few tools do. From a technical perspective, I admire how they've abstracted a block-based editor to support everything from wikis to databases to project management, all with real-time collaboration. What stands out to me most is how extensible it feels without overwhelming the user — that balance is hard to get right. It’s a great example of how powerful a well-executed full-stack architecture can be, and it’s inspired a lot of the UX and component thinking in my own projects like DeployIt.

I've been using notion professionally and personally for a few years. As a new founder it was my choice for housing our teams primary execution and coordination environments. I love the intuitive interface, ease of use and the overall experience. I appreciate the notion continues to evolve in relevant and helpful ways. Cons: Spell check and formal documentation writing, notion has a ways to go here but looking forward to seeing how they evolve in this area specifically.

I've integrated Notion deeply into both my personal life and my Startup Studio's operations, making it the central hub for all my planning, organization, and team management. Its versatility shines through the way it adapts to both individual and collaborative needs, proving invaluable for task tracking and project planning. The real game-changer was developing an innovative assistant to create tasks from WhatsApp messages directly into Notion, streamlining communication and task assignment within my team. Notion isn't just a tool for me; it's the backbone of my daily operations and productivity, seamlessly blending life and work in one powerful platform.

Notion is one of those apps that makes productive work more fun and organized. It has everything you need — and that’s also part of the downside. Sometimes, it feels like it has too many features. I used it many times, but eventually had to stop because it took forever to open on my Android device — probably because my phone wasn’t very powerful. As a student, I didn’t really need most of its features anyway, so I just gave up on it. But still, it’s a great product overall.

My favorite note-taking app. It has tons of templates and is really easy to organize things. Adding pictures is super easy too but I wish that we had more freedom when moving and sizing the pictures. The sharing feature is awesome and very smart. It allowed you to share any page and share notes, while also allowing whoever you shared it with to add their own notes. There are so many uses beyond note taking in this app, like scheduling, to-do lists, etc. Overall great app.

I normally struggle with ADHD and especially organising my life and work. I used to have several apps for calendar, todo lists, work on projects, and would write reminders on another app, same for tasks etc. It was a mess and a massive source of anxiety. I have had Notion for a long time, but only recently decided to use it as my main workspace. It took me a bit of time to get used to it but now, all my previous notes, tasks and projects are neatly organised in Notion. I am not gonna lie, it was a bit of a challenge at first as i wouldnt stay focused long enough to use the platform correctly and it was difficult at first to find the right templates, move all my notes and get new habits (i still have much to do!). I am happy i continued trying as i can now find my projects easily, centralise all my tasks, share what i need to share, check one calendar only, etc. It helps me alleviate a lot of the stress and anxiety i used to feel because of my ADHD and how overwhelmed i would feel getting to my desk every morning trying to get organised! Thank you, i highly recommend it!

I use it for at least 5 years and since than theres been a lot of changes. But it’s been a while that the app gets stuck a lot, the AI just doesnt work sometimes because the app crashes. Sometimes it does work but it doesnt do what I’ve asked in the prompt which is so annoying that I put “FOLLOW THE EXACTLY WHATS IN THE PROMPT!!!!!! DO NOT CREATE SOMETHING DIFFERENT!!!!” In the prompts I saved because I used the most, it’s been working better since then, but still, I shouldn’t have to do this to make it work. I really wanted to change but all my life is there and honestly I really like Notion, it has everything I need, I just wish it wouldnt be so slow sometimes. And this happens with the app and web version, I deleted a lot of things so maybe it could get better, didnt worked.
