"Flexible All-in-One Workspace That Boosts Productivity and Teamwork"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I've been using Notion to organize projects, manage knowledge, and keep track of tasks across my studies and work. What stands out most is how flexible it is

I can create everything from simple notes to project trackers and documentation in one place.

The AI features are useful for summarizing content, brainstorming ideas, and improving productivity, while the search function makes it easy to find information quickly. Being able to collaborate with others in real time has also helped streamline teamwork. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

While Notion is extremely flexible, that flexibility also creates a steeper learning curve for new users. Setting up databases, templates, and workflows can take time before you get the most value from the platform.

Performance can also slow down in larger workspaces with lots of databases and content. The offline experience has improved but still isn't as seamless as some dedicated note-taking apps, and advanced project management features aren't as comprehensive as tools built specifically for software development or enterprise project management.

"Organizational Wizard with AI Magic"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I use Notion to organize my day-to-day work. I love that everything is in one place and accessible with any of my devices. I appreciate the ability to record meetings at any moment. I really like the integration with ChatGPT and Notion AI, which allows me to elaborate on ideas and create solid documentation, and then structure anything with a database—it feels like magic. I find the initial setup way too easy, and as an advanced certified user, I truly love Notion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I want the integrations to be better. For example, I'd like to be able to retrieve information from Outlook. Also, I want to be able to do calculations with tables. I made a Notion expense tracking file, but it never sums how much I spent because Notion isn’t able to give a total. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Notion: A Seamless Centralized Workspace for Planning and Technical Documentation"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like best about Notion is how seamlessly it acts as a centralized workspace for both high-level planning and technical documentation. Its block-based flexibility makes it effortless to map out system architectures, outline project specs, and compile clean notes, while the straightforward sharing features keep technical and non-technical team members perfectly aligned without any unnecessary complexity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

As workspaces grow and pages become heavy with complex databases, nested toggles, or embedded media, loading speeds can noticeably drag compared to native text editors or plain Markdown files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clean UI, Easy Onboarding, and Generous Access to Multiple AI Models"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

- love the separation of AI chat and notes

- Love the variety of AI models, and the generous limit to use them

- Onboarding is quite easy, guided by the tutorials in the beginning

- Pricing is fair, considering the services offered in return especially AI chat

- The amount of connectors and MCP servers are quite nice and basically cover most services

- During chat, the page gets a bit laggy until the chat answer is complete

- UI is quite clean and nice, would have been better if model settings did not change while changing the AI mode (to research for example) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

The performance gets shaky while AI is answering questions.

The model selection is annoying when it resets when I change the AI mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Organization with Pages and Subpages"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

One of my favorite things about Notion is how easy it is to organize everything with pages and subpages. The natural hierarchy this creates helps keep even large projects tidy, structured, and easy to navigate.

One feature I’d really like to see is a more flexible way to reuse and reference the same page structures across different workspaces, without having to duplicate the content each time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

One thing I dislike is how hard it can be to edit the same page when multiple people are working on it at the same time. Real-time collaboration often feels clunky, especially when others are typing or reorganizing content. It’s easy to lose your place, accidentally overwrite something, or end up interrupting each other’s work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Visually Appealing But Lacks Seamless Integration"
3/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I like the design of Notion, especially how it looks modular and lets me add photos, making it similar to designing a website interface. This design makes it more attractive to me and gets me excited about setting up new pages. The initial setup of Notion was also easy and enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I haven't been able to get my daily habit tracker to integrate with my calendar as well as I would have liked. As such, I spent some time setting it up but never really stuck to using it. Another time, I tried to import Google Sheets using the AI feature to make a better literature review tracker. That also didn't work very well, so I kept on using my original Google Sheets. I wanted to make it possible to put check boxes on my calendar (as in, my Notion calendar), but that didn't work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Customizable, Easy-to-Use Notion with Helpful AI Meeting Recording"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

What I like most about Notion is how customizable and flexible it is. I can integrate it with different platforms and keep all the information my team and I need in one place. The interface is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate.

The new AI meeting notes feature has been especially helpful. It lets me record meetings, quickly review the key discussion points, and turn them into actionable tasks right after each call. This saves me time and makes it easier to stay organized and follow up on important items.

Onboarding and setup were very straightforward. My team and I were able to learn the platform and start using it effectively within the first few days.

One area that could be improved is performance. Because I use Notion on a corporate device, it can sometimes be resource-intensive, particularly when I’m recording a meeting. A few times my computer has started to freeze and I’ve had to close the application. That said, this issue usually only happens while recording calls.

Overall, Notion has been a valuable tool for our team. It has improved how we organize information, collaborate, and manage our daily tasks, and what we paid for it has been worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I think Notion could provide a simpler way to organize notes. Rather than relying so heavily on pages nested inside other pages, it would be really helpful to have a more traditional folder-and-subfolder structure. That kind of setup would make it easier to locate information quickly and keep larger workspaces from feeling cluttered.

Another drawback is that the app can sometimes feel slow or consume a lot of system resources, especially when recording meetings. On corporate devices, this can occasionally impact overall performance and, in some cases, even cause the computer to freeze.

Even with these issues, Notion has been a valuable tool for my team, and what we paid for it was worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Notion: Highly Customizable and Easy to Use for All Levels"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I like Notion because it is highly customizable. Both beginners and power users can use the tool and extract value from it relatively easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Notion manages to gather many tools at the same time, which ends up being a hindrance when people want something simpler and more straightforward. The price should also be adjusted by country, because here in Brazil it is unfeasible to pay the amount in dollars. In this sense, Notion is at an impasse: either it stops selling to users like me, who cannot pay the full price, or it offers some discount to Brazilians and still manages to make a profit.

Moreover, Notion should consider optimizing performance better. I have been using it for several years and have thousands of pages, and this ends up weighing on my computer and making the experience slower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Notion AI Turns Dictated Tasks Into the Right To-Do or Calendar"
5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

My favorite feature is being able to dictate tasks, projects, and commitments and then have Notion AI place them into the correct to-do list or calendar. As a bomb technician, C‑STAD founder, TRT Deputy Director, DHS instructor, and board member, that capture-and-sort workflow saves me a huge amount of time and helps me keep everything actionable in one workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

Not much to critique—I’m a huge fan. The main gap for me is native mind-map generation and stronger visual relationship mapping. I also wish multi-calendar synthesis into a single daily operating view went deeper and felt more fully integrated. Adding those capabilities would make an already excellent workspace even stronger, especially for complex public-safety and multi-program work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Tool with a Steep Learning Curve"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Notion?

I love how Notion allows me to turn scattered information into a connected system. I can combine many different elements for various purposes, like project and progress tracking, and perform actions such as collaboration and publishing like a professional webpage. The flexibility is a big plus for me because I have specific needs and I enjoy having the freedom to customize. It's handy for personal tracking and resume publishing too. I also appreciate the feature that lets me link and connect different notes and plans easily, so I only need to update a master document, and it reflects everywhere. Plus, I can produce statistics and get visualization straight away, which is something I haven't found on other platforms that focus only on note-taking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Notion?

I find the learning curve slightly higher at the beginning, but with more practice and tutorials, I can overcome it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
