It ingests text from forms, applies machine learning technology to identify keys and tables, and then outputs structured data that includes the relationships within the original file.

Azure AI Document Intelligence is mainly used in document data filling. If the template is the same, only the inside data content will be different. There, we use a text-based OCR process to fill the data in the same template with different, accurate data means the manual work will be reduced and time saved. And used in an image and text combined bot if the user query through text from the knowledge based document it brings the output which is used in information technology and services.

If you want a customizable solution that can be adapted for just about any scenario, I recommend using Notion. If you need a solution that's easy to share with people outside your organization, Notion is great and allows individual or team permission-setting. If you want a turnkey solution, Notion might not be the best since it requires a fair bit of set-up. There are templates that can be purchased to handle this, but I haven't found them very helpful.

  • 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.

Cons
Microsoft
  • Azure AI Document Intelligence should have used to store image based embedding for multiple languages
  • Images storing part is a different area in our case and only for a few images that part can be increased
  • Cost is high which should be reduced so more users will come and more technology through this will come

  • 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.

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

Azure AI Document Intelligence mainly meets our business requirements. Actually, what we need is image and text-based multimodal, and we store data in pgvector PostgreSQL vector embedding those data. For that, we need text and image combined embedding, which we can get from Azure AI Document Intelligence. Which is working good for us and improved accuracy not 100% but 70% accuracy we are getting at least through Azure AI Document Intelligence.

Very easy to use (I learned how to use everything on my own) and I was able to set up an entire ecosystem without any courses or other tools. I often say that Notion is like Lego for adults, because there we can use all the available tools to create a multitude of things, from funnels to projects with calculated deadlines and tags.

Azure AI Search, we used to bring image and text relevant to the user query, but it did not work properly, and the accuracy was very poor compared to Azure AI Document Intelligence. Azure Blob Storage we used to store images and bring in frontend there also accuracy low, so we went for embedding through Azure AI Document Intelligence. Azure AI Content Safety for text content, but it is very costly, so we went for Azure AI Document Intelligence.

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 Notion and Trello are nice tools and serves our needs.
