Everyday note-taking, organization and brainstorming tool
So far it has been a great experience for me and my team. Notion has turned into an app that is always open on the computer, just like the email client.
Pros
In our case as a digital assets and marketing company, we need to keep track of many clients and projects. The database feature in Notion allows us to create custom databases where we can filter, search, update and share easily with our clients.
Cons
Maybe it's because of our business type, we don't use Notion for our own project management tasks. However, we discuss and collaborate every day in Notion to deploy our project management tasks in another tool.

A vital tool
The initial learning curve* is sooooooo worth it; I now manage just about everything through Notion. For me, it's the '2nd brain' that the likes of Tiago Forte bang on about (and with good reason) - I'm more organised, more productive and less stressed.
*Only to use it more extensively; if you just want an Evernote or OneNote alternative, it's as easy as they are)
Pros
Enables me to record, note and plan things in whatever way works best at the time, and then find it again, instantly!
Cons
As a new user, it takes a little planning to maximise some of its benefits; I needed to rethink the structure behind many things that had previously existed purely as notes.

A great too for organization
It was fun at first. The way you can make it look how you want it is good but I think it is better for tablet users. Laptop users can get bored. It happened to me.
Pros
Free software that allows you to keep in track many tasks, assignments, hobbies, priorities, etc. The interface grants you the option to costumize which is fun and flexible for anyone.
Cons
You have to constantly change it. Everything you do is manual so for those that aren't that orginzed will lose interest.

Best tool I use on a daily basis to ideate and take notes
The best app I use on a daily basis and couldn't live with out it
Pros
The ability to ideate in the moment and document my thoughts and ideas in real-time through typing and dictation is amazing and being able to link to other pages and podcasts and videos as well as upload images and access an image library, just to mention a small number of the amazing features of this app that I use on a daily basis
Cons
At this point I don't have the ability to search words in my uploaded handwritten paper notes
Reasons for Choosing Notion
Evernote was not developing their features as quickly as Notion and Notion offered features and functionality that Evernote didn't have at the timeSwitched From

Best Free Multi-Function Note Taking App
I have tried too many note-taking apps, but Notion is unique, it allows me to manage my entire life, and it provides me a value that some other paid apps can not provide, I use it on a daily basis.
Pros
The content and database management features are awesome, the way you can structure the page is totally flexible, sharing notes and templates can not be easier, and there are no limits on ideas that you can make for managing your database.
Cons
the phone app is not so powerful, there are a lot of features that may be overwhelming to you, the security for this software is not %100 great, and sometimes when I use a long text page it some lags happen.
