"Centralizes Tasks with Sleek Customization"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I appreciate how Notion helps me centralize all tasks in our calendar task list and projects, which allows my team to see everything clearly. The sleek design of Notion stands out to me, along with its color palette, which I find very good. The platform's ability to customize things makes my work pretty efficient. For example, I can use a palette of colors for different tasks to show their status. The ability to create different types of layouts like sheets or lists is pretty cool, and it makes working with the calendar much more efficient. I value how it allows me to centralize everything in one app and customize it, giving me more control over projects and lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I think synchronizing with email that isn't linked to Google would be a great improvement. Also, I wish we could create recurring tasks that pop up before the day comes, like reminders for bill payments. With Notion, I have to wait until the specific date to see the recurring task, and unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to make it show beforehand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile and Intuitive for Team Management"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I love that Notion is able to connect databases, templates, and AI-assisted workflows. It helps me turn scattered information into clearer systems, assign ownership, track decisions, and ensure important work doesn't depend on memory or just one person. Databases are especially helpful as they allow me to create structured systems instead of keeping information in disconnected pages. I can track projects, ownership, review dates, decisions, documents, and operational signals all in one place, with different views for different needs. I also found that Notion is flexible and intuitive enough to start using quickly without tech knowledge, making the initial setup for basic pages and simple databases fairly easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I think it's how to make complex databases and automations easier to build and maintain. As systems grow, formulas, or permissions, and views can become difficult to fix or troubleshoot, and it's not always clear why something is not behaving as expected. I would also love stronger native integrations and reliable AI workflows. Notion AI is useful, but greater control over sources and audit trails would make it much more practical for operational work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One Workspace for Notes, Tasks, and Collaboration"
4/5
What do you like best about Notion?

Notion is a cloud-based productivity and collaboration platform developed by Notion Labs Inc. It combines note-taking, document creation, task management, databases, calendars, and project management into a single workspace. The goal of Notion is to help individuals, students, and organizations organize information and work more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Today, I would like to speak about something I don't like, which is procrastination. Procrastination means delaying important work until the last moment. I don't like it because it wastes time, creates stress, and reduces the quality of our work.

"Clean, Customizable Workspace with Smooth Performance and Helpful Notion AI"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

Over the past few months, my experience with Notion has remained consistently positive. I especially like how reliable and fast it feels, even with larger workspaces. Notion AI has become more useful for summarizing notes, brainstorming ideas, and improving writing. I also appreciate how easy it is to organize projects with databases, templates, and linked pages. The clean interface and seamless collaboration features continue to make it my go-to productivity tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

My overall experience has stayed the same, but there are still a few areas that could be improved. The learning curve for advanced databases, formulas, and automations can be challenging for new users. Mobile performance could be smoother when working with larger pages, and offline support could be more reliable. I would also like to see faster loading times for very large workspaces and more customization options for dashboards. Overall, these are minor improvements, and they don't affect my positive experience with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One, Customizable Workspace That Keeps Everything Organized and very easily interactive"
4/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like most about Notion is that it brings everything together in one place. Rather than jumping between separate apps for notes, tasks, documentation, and project planning, I can keep it all organised in a single, flexible workspace. I also really value how customizable it is—it works just as well for personal knowledge management as it does for team collaboration. That balance of simplicity and powerful features makes it easy to take ideas and shape them into structured, actionable work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

One thing I don’t like about Notion is that it can feel overwhelming at first because it’s so flexible. With so many different ways to organize information, it can take a while to figure out and build a system that actually works well. In larger workspaces, performance can also slow down from time to time. Still, I see these as trade-offs that come with having such a powerful, customizable platform, and once I have a solid structure in place, the benefits usually outweigh the drawbacks.

"Powerful All-in-One Workspace for Productivity"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like most about Notion is how it combines note-taking, task management, project planning, databases, and collaboration in one workspace that’s still easy to use. Because it’s so flexible, I can customise pages, dashboards, and workflows to match the way I work, which makes it equally helpful for personal use and professional projects. I also appreciate the clean interface, the strong selection of templates, and the seamless syncing across devices, all of which help me stay organised and productive.

The biggest drawback is the learning curve, especially for new users, and it can take time to build a workspace that feels truly well structured. I’ve also noticed it can slow down when I’m working with very large databases or more complex pages, and some of the more advanced features are locked behind a paid plan. Overall, it’s a powerful, versatile productivity tool, and it keeps getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

One area where Notion could improve is performance in large or complex workspaces, since pages and databases can sometimes load slowly. It also comes with a noticeable learning curve for new users, largely due to the many customisation options available. Although the free plan is generous, some advanced collaboration and AI features still require a paid subscription. Better offline functionality, along with a simpler initial setup experience, would make the platform even stronger and more accessible for a wider range of users.

"Everything centralized and highly customizable for any need"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

Having the possibility to do everything on it, in a very customized way for my needs, regardless of the niche. And having everything centralized, without needing to use more than one platform for each thing I need, especially after the updates that have been occurring and that even allow for creating simple presentations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

It's not that I don't like it, but since I'm already very familiar with it and can do very advanced things, when I implement it in one of my teams and they encounter the multitude of possibilities there, they hold back and are afraid of "breaking" the system. And then it turns out that the adoption ends up being slower and less beneficial, requiring my constant encouragement and insistence for adoption. And since there isn't more direct support for any user to contact for questions, it ends up increasing the dependency on me. And the price to use AI is also expensive, but it is minimally justified.

"Effortless to Start, Minimalist Design That Feels Instantly User-Friendly"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like best is how easy it is to get started. There's no instruction manual required. You can pick it up and start using it right away. The minimalist, elegant design makes the whole experience genuinely user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

This is a tricky one, because I like most things about it. If I had to pick one, it's that the sheer number of options and choices can be overwhelming. Sometimes I'm not sure what I should or shouldn't use. As a result, I probably only use about 30% of what's available and stick to the few features I know well and feel comfortable with. Ironically, having so many options makes me narrow my focus rather than explore, especially when I'm busy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing tool for productivity and creative projects! (with a couple restrictions)"
4/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I enjoy that Notion is really customizable and offers a ton of ways to organize my ideas while also keeping everything cohesive and readable. I especially like the databases feature which allows me to see large datasets of information neatly. Since Notion AI came out, I have been using it here and there and it is truly an impressive feature! Because it knows my workspace so well, it has been able to save me so much time by building pages just from prompting it. Best of all, Notion was so easy to use straight out of the box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Notion suffers a couple flaws, primarily its strict block quota. There have been times where I have had databases between 30-40 files and me reaching the free limit. Doing this limits my work and I do wish that free tier users had more opportunity to create more before the stricter implementation of blocks came around. Pricing is also a bit stingy in terms of what you get for Plus. Even after purchasing Notion Plus for 5 months, I still worked with the trial version of Notion AI which to say the least, not enough and lacked popular connectors like Github. I would unfortunately need to upgrade to the Notion Business subscription if I wanted to take full advantage of Notion AI (which as a single user, would not be worth it). Nonetheless, the chat quota and features were still okay for the price I was paying. Performance wise, Notion works smoothly most of the time, however it can get laggy if you have a lot of content or images on a single page. I would say that if anyone was using the Free or Plus tier, they would not get the full experience of Notion without the Business plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Notion: our wiki and living repository for projects and commercial pipeline"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I use Notion for everything related to project control and management within the company. Gradually, we have been incorporating the tool into the daily work of the projects, increasingly as a source of knowledge and a repository of files and documentation for the projects within the consultancy where I work. Over time, I have been building a system for recording, managing, and controlling both project management and the tracking of the sales pipeline: proposals, commercial resources, and other elements. In this sense, it serves a dual function: on one hand, it acts as a wiki; on the other, as a living version to control and keep the commercial pipeline updated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Sometimes it is very complex to understand everything or it feels like the system can "break" for those who do not feel so comfortable using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
