"Notion Keeps Everything Organized in One Clean, Customizable Workspace"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I like how Notion brings everything together in one place. Rather than keeping notes, tasks, and project details scattered across different apps, I can organize it all within a single workspace. The interface feels clean, the pages are easy to customize, and it works well for both personal planning and collaborative group projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

It takes a bit of time to get comfortable with all the features, especially when you’re using it for the first time. Some of the more advanced options aren’t very easy to locate, and when working with larger pages, it can sometimes feel a little slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Minimalist UI and Flexible Databases That Streamlined Our Agency Workflow"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What do you like best about Notion?

Its minimalist UI/UX and flexible databases transformed our agency's workflow. The drag-and-drop interface and rich integrations (Slack, Google Drive) save us hours each week by centralizing brand assets, sprints, and client wikis into a single hub.

What do you dislike about Notion?

The steep learning curve can overwhelm new hires, and the higher-tier pricing for advanced AI features feels a bit steep for growing teams. Performance can also lag slightly when heavy image-rich design pages load simultaneously.

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

It eliminates app-switching and scattered files, streamlining our creative briefs and project tracking. The unexpected benefit is how seamlessly it preserves our agency's tribal knowledge, keeping remote teams aligned across time zones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

From an agency perspective, the lack of direct customer support when troubleshooting sudden permission locks or more complex formula errors can be frustrating. On top of that, onboarding new clients into shared workspaces often takes a lot of hand-holding, since they’re not as familiar with the system architecture and how everything is set up.

"A Flexible “Second Brain” with Powerful Databases and Contextual Notion AI"
4/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like best about Notion is its flexibility. I can bring projects, tasks, research, journals, content production, relationships, and long-term knowledge into one connected workspace, rather than spreading everything across separate tools.

I use Notion as a genuine “second brain”: capturing ideas quickly, organizing them through databases, and gradually turning them into projects, content, or concrete next steps. Notion AI has made this even more valuable by helping me find information across a large workspace, structure voice notes and meeting notes, develop ideas, and create workflows that understand the context of my work. The combination of flexible writing, connected databases, and contextual AI is what makes Notion unique for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

What I dislike most is that a powerful Notion workspace can become complex and difficult to maintain over time. As databases, relations, templates, dashboards, and automations grow, it becomes easy to create overlapping systems or lose track of where information belongs.

Performance can also slow down on complex pages and large databases. I would like more powerful native automations, better offline support, and clearer control over how Notion AI uses workspace context. Notion offers enormous flexibility, but getting the most out of it still requires considerable system design and regular maintenance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast, Simple Workspace with Killer AI and Integrations"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I like how fast and simple with easy to use the workspace and the AI features are killer for this app. It also supports many integrations, like issue trackers, spreadsheets, docs, GitHub, and more. For my use case, Notion provides a complete set of features at an affordable price. this app also give me easy setup, no need effort to use it and quick support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I’ve had some issues using the Notion desktop app on my MacBook likes heavy to load. When I first open it, sometimes the app takes too long to load. Other times, it only shows the skeleton menu, and I have to restart the app to solve the problems Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"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.
