Notion aims to present users with an all-in-one workspace — for notes, tasks, wikis, and databases, from Notion Labs in San Francisco.
Notion provides the most organisation by way of being a "digital brain". The other softwares (i.e. OneNote, Google Drive, Milanote) aren't as robust in the organisation of these documents and the levels of managing files and pages. Notion feels like a communal digital notebook …
It does the job really well. They were one of the first on the scene and have continually improved overtime. It's crazy affordable, I'm always surprised when I see the $5 monthly charge compared to other apps I pay more for and use a lot less.
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 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.
I started using Fireflies.ai about 1.5 yrs ago. It was - and continues to be - extremely user friendly, very easy to adopt, very easy to navigate and learn.
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.
When we used Chorus.ai in our organization, I thought the Analytics were worthless. Beyond the point I made earlier about using the iOS app doesn't count towards your Engagement score, the only way calls are correctly counted is to the Rep who set up the call. I manage a team of Sales Engineers who support Sales Reps, who typically set up the Zoom session. Chorus.ai doesn't show any stats on my team. However, Fireflies.ai is a virtual assistant that helps you manage your business. It recognizes voice commands from the user and turns them into tasks.
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.
