Considered Both Products
Avaza
Chose Avaza
Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.
Chose Avaza
Avaza is the only solution that ties all of our needs together in one platform at a reasonable price.
Chose Avaza
Avaza's time tracking capabilities are much more detailed than Upwork's. Upwork focuses on simplicity, using a simple on/off button and a spot for taking notes about each project, but Avaza gives you more to work with, allowing you to add detailed notes and specify tasks.
Chose Avaza
I've used Trello before, but Avaza has way more features and is more applicable for cross-team collaboration. We selected Avaza for it's ability to not only project manage, but also for invoicing, expenses and it's ability to track time. We've gotten more accurate with estimate …
Chose Avaza
This is miles ahead of ActiveCollab. It has more features, the interface is easier to use and the invoicing is easier to use. Across the board better. We migrated from ActiveCollab, but that was just essentially a Fancier Wunderlist. If you just need one project and a few tasks …
Chose Avaza
I have not used any other products like Avaza.
Notion
Chose Notion
Google Drive is great for storing documents but having to go in and out of documents to view and find things like company policies or operating procedures isn't the best user experience. With Notion its easy to see the docs we have available, click into them, etc and search for …
Chose Notion
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 …
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'.
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.
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 …
Chose Notion
I like the Notion interface and possibilities.
Chose Notion
Notion brought the two together with features from each that we liked being put into one place.
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 …
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 …
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 …
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. …
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, …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Chose Notion
Notion's flexibility and extensive customization options make it the perfect tool for my personal organization. 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 …
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 …
Chose Notion
Notion has a powerful feature, and it is their templates within databases. They allow our operation to flow seamlessly and create new tasks with defined subtasks in seconds.
Chose Notion
not nearly as useful, it is just a file organiser tool but Notion has the functionality of creating many thing in one page, allowing to include more pages and link with other spaces. such as Miro, google drive, calendar, etc
Integration is part of what makes Notion the best …
Chose Notion
A lot more features for collaboration and sharing information.
Chose Notion
I think that Notion adds a better user experience which is more customisable. Some of these apps are really rigid and dont give youthe flexability that Notion does.
Chose Notion
I found that Notion offered the most versatility. In particular it allowed me to super easily format and reformat information depending on how I was using it. This has proven incredibly useful. And has allowed me to store various types of information all in the same place.
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 …

There are teams who work hard, and there are those who work smart. Avaza helps you be the latter--it's is a great tool for any team collaborating on several projects, especially multiple projects with a lot of simultaneously moving parts. It has just about everything you need - from team schedules to timesheets, down to the task and sub-task monitoring. The best part for me is that we can switch from List View to Kanban to Gantt charts!

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.

Pros
  • Helps keep track of time spent on each project
  • Helps employees break down their time spent throughout the day
  • Encourages better time management skills

  • 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.
Read full review
Cons
  • I wish sub-tasks could also have due dates
  • For really big projects, we hope there could be phases (aside from sections)
  • In the chatbox, it would be great if photo attachments could be displayed as screenshots (instead of downloading the file)

  • 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.

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.
