Considered Both Products	figshare No answer on this topic	Notion Juliana Guzzo Bertolini Operations Assistant Chose Notion because Notion is more comprehensive and offers greater possibilities. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Notion is far superior to OneNote. OneNote is unnecessarily complex and quite constrained by 'old ways' of doing things. Notion is a more simplistic interface and just 'works'. Incentivized Helpful? Anushka Garg Senior Associate Chose Notion Needed something outside of Microsoft Office for overall deal and project tracking and collating our collective knowledge and learnings from different deals. We have not evaluated against anything else. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion I listed only the other tools we use. These are not necessarily competitors to Notion, nor we use them for the same things. For organising tasks and collaborative work we only use Notion. Slack is good for communication, Figma for design and development, while Miro for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion I like the Notion interface and possibilities. Incentivized Helpful? Julia Schaider Closer Chose Notion I tested Trello, which is great for visual tasks, but I missed something more complete. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Notion brought the two together with features from each that we liked being put into one place. Incentivized Helpful? Janesia Dcosta 🗓️ Freelancer Chose Notion I like Notion more than Trello and Google Sheets because it has the best parts of both. Trello is good for making lists of tasks, but it can’t do much else. Google Sheets is great for organizing data, but it can get messy. I chose Notion because I can make lists, tables, and … Incentivized Helpful? Larissa Bravim Furlan Operations Analist Chose Notion The first major difference is the ability to create formulas using other columns and even using other formulas. This increases the possibility of customization to another level. I couldn't do the same things using these other tools. The second is the infinite number of things … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion I think Miro also has it's downsides but in general there is more options to illustrate one's creative ideas and workflows etc. Notion is slightly more limiting in that sense. And due to two facor authentification I also tend to work more in google sheets and google docs and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Notion pretty much combines all the capabilities each one of these platforms have and just takes the most important ideas and concentrates on making them stand out. I can create a "Trello" type of timeline, and use a more traditional "Jira" or "Asana" type of waterfall view. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Notion goes beyond file storage, which are what the two selected above primarily offer. Also I have used Notion for personal use cases and projects and have found it to have a really amazing user experience and UI. Microsoft products tend to fail at having a good UX. Also, … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion The company uses both Notion and Trello within the company. Notion is more for North America employees while Trello is used between Operation team overseas and in North America. Sometimes it's a preference of how the tools look like for project management. I would say both … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Jira is a great tool, that is probably more robust than Notion and more scalable. But for a small company (under 50 people) the investment is hard to swallow without a significant revenue stream justifying it. Notion is a perfect low cost option that meets 80% of the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion We found Notion to be a lot easier to use than ClickUp. They offer a similar feature set, but ClickUp was a lot less user-friendly in my opinion. We also tried Trello and Todoist, but found they were just lacking the features we needed. We still use Trello for some internal … Incentivized Helpful?

I appreciate not being confined to a single format, and I find that the process of personalizing my workspace sparks creativity, which is a great asset for managing … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion Notion is the most in depth of all of the above applications. You can make a simple to-do list and share it with other people, or dive deep into formulas and page linking. I appreciate that it does not take a large time to set up like Monday.com, but it still offers a huge … Incentivized Helpful?

They allow our operation to flow seamlessly and create new tasks with defined subtasks in seconds. Incentivized Helpful?

Long Nguyen Vu Research Engineer Chose Notion Notion is less complicated than ClickUp and more user friendly, especially for those who prefer simplicity. I am aware that ClickUp does offer simple template and let us scale it but Notion is one step ahead because of the UI design is easier to use. I like Confluence at work … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion I've used Evernote in the past and currently use Asana alongside Notion, so I can compare them based on my experience. Notion is much more flexible than Evernote.

Verified User Anonymous Chose Notion We were using Nation for the whole company and it's amazing, however, for the CS team with the tech/ops we are using Trello.

User Testimonials
	figshare	Notion
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	At the company I work for, we use Notion as an organizational base for all sectors and projects. For example, we use it for the marketing team, customer support team, among others. And for each one, we can create pipelines, tasks, due dates, execution time, tags with different colors. It's something very versatile that helps with everything around here. We've even created a sales funnel in Notion. Incentivized Larissa Bravim Furlan Operations Analist Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	I love that you can create nested pages, allowing for separate sections to organize information as needed. I appreciate the convenience of effortlessly uploading images to any section. I appreciate that when adding links, you can embed them so the website displays directly on the page. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	I use Notion on my personal tablet, and unlike on the computer, I have a lot of difficulty editing backgrounds, GIFs, and page dividers. It's not as user-friendly, and often the elements end up cut off or misaligned, which is frustrating. While the current calendar feature is helpful, I'd love to see more customization options. The Google Calendar style isn't always ideal, especially for tasks without specific times or for ongoing projects that require daily maintenance. It would be fantastic to have more flexibility in customizing Notion pages. For example, I'd love to create planners with the freedom to add illustration boxes, stickers, or GIFs without being restricted to a fixed layout.

Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	We're too settled in the ecosystem and we have no major complaints with it. No reason to move unless you have a burning pain point Incentivized Mantra Manan Saraswat Product Manager Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Notion addresses most of our needs and help teams to organize their tasks, track their progresses and then archive for future reference. The company uses Notion to share announcement, holiday schedules, employee contact information and organizational structures. Everyone finds it useful and helpful. The notifications are instant. Reminders are on time. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	Notion is much more robust than Google Tasks, which I find very limited. Notion is far more customizable and affordable than Asana, which is more of a turnkey solution for teams that want to work within a pre-defined structure. Notion and ClickUp are comparable, in my opinion, in terms of task management and affordability, however Notion is the more customizable and expansive option whereas ClickUp is mostly just for task management.
