About Notion

Notion is a project and workflow management solution that helps businesses streamline operations related to goal setting, status tracking, lead management, and more on a centralized platform. It enables users to utilize the drag-and-drop interface to organize, rearrange, and develop ideas, thoughts or plans.

Notion allows businesses to build and maintain a knowledge base for multiple topics such as task instructions, coding guidelines, HR workflows, and more. With the built-in calendar and kanban boards, users can create roadmaps and monitor tasks based on completion status, category, priority, or assigned team members. In order to enhance collaboration, team members can add comments on tasks and projects in order to start discussions.

Notion comes with an application programming interface (API), which enables businesses to integrate the system with several third-party solutions including Slack, Figma, and InVision. It enables users to create to-do lists, prepare meeting notes, and set up weekly agendas on a unified platform.

Push Through the Learning Curve

Now that I am more familiar with Notion, I find it a very useful site.

Pros

I like the look of this platform. Very customizable. I specifically like that I can add a video into the specific template. I can press record and give instructions to my team. It's time-saving.

Cons

There was a bit of a learning process with this one. I prefer when I don't have to ask too many "tech dummy" questions. I navigate towards software that is more "dummy friendly" but after figuring out the features, I really like it.

It was ok overall. Great place to store info to share amounts your team but it would be hard to continue to update it if you forget.

Pros

I was able to build a wiki and a landing page for both internal and external stalkholders

Cons

It was hard to use at the beginning. The UI was mostly black/white and not very to ease. It was easy to break the page too if you add in other info from another format.

Alternatives Considered

Microsoft OneNote, Coda, and Airtable

Reasons for Switching to Notion

It was a trend in the market. A lot of people were using it.

For me it is not a professional tool because it is very slow as I said before and the support is very bad.

I have actually a big bug which exist since 2 years and Notion support don't help me about it.

My bug is:

I have 2 databases and 1 column to make some "Relation" between them. It was working perfectly before but some day Notion made some update and since this day, In my "Relation" column, it does not suggest anymore the datas that I have in another table.

I reported this issue and the support team ignores this.

Notion has a lot of limited features for FREE accounts like automations, file upload limit or inviting some family member.

Pros

The ability to create databases quickly to store informations instead of using Excel for example.

Cons

Notion is EXTREMELY slow if you are using it to store a lot of data like 2000+ pages

The support, it is very very very VERY difficult to get some one AND it is EXTREMELY difficult to report a bug.

Each time we report a bug or something like this, the support is like a robot, they ask ALWAYS the same questions like "What is your device please?" even if I precise it before and I say it is the same issue on each device

I was an Apple Notes guy for a long time. However, there were two features that I didn't like about it. One, I couldn't link my notes together and two, it was cumbersome to share my notes with others, especially non-iphone users. Notion solved both these problems and provides an excellent user interface.

Pros

Notion is the superior notes taking app. A few of my favorite features are the ability to organize withing projects and tasks, the ability to have different kind of notes (one type for personal notes, and another to track tasks), the ability to publish notes to the web without needing a specific domain, and the ability to share notes with others on your team and have them update easily.

Cons

Notion does take a little while to learn, but once you understand how the system works, it's excellent. I use it for my personal notes as well as project tracking with my team.

Trello

Reasons for Switching to Notion

We tried Trello for a while, but Notion gives way more flexibility in the ability to take notes and add documents. It also does not make you upgrade in order to set deadlines on tasks.
