Reviewers largely see Notion as a flexible hub that brings notes, docs, tasks, databases, and team planning into one place, often becoming a “second brain” or single source of truth. Users praise its customizable blocks, templates, and collaborative workflows for everything from research and roadmaps to content calendars and onboarding. Makers of

echo that it centralizes team knowledge well. The main complaints are familiar: a steep learning curve, slow performance on large pages or databases, weak offline support, and some friction around mobile, permissions, search, and AI.

I use it for taking structured notes of all the course content that i'm consuming, planning my projects, creating daily to-do lists and also for creating a repositories of important questions for my interview prep. Although it's great for centralization, I find it tedious to use on phone. To-do lists are inaccessible unless within apps. The in-app integrations are great, tho.

Notion for me is a mixed experience. On the one hand this is one of the best note taking apps, because it allows for creating complex pages and databases. Ont the other hand its hosted nature and inability to work offline in the app makes it less trustable than a solution like Obsidian, which works fully offline and just syncs the changes when online. That's why I use Notion only for notes I need to share with other people or for creating very simple websites.

As an illustrator, managing projects, ideas, and resources can sometimes be a challenge. Notion has been instrumental in streamlining my workflow and keeping everything organized. Notion's all-in-one workspace is where its strength lies. I can create notes and documents, manage tasks with reminders, create databases for my illustration resources, and even use it as a content calendar for my freelance projects or personal art prompts. The flexibility and customization options are almost limitless, which allows me to tailor it to my specific needs. I also appreciate the clean, distraction-free interface of Notion. It's aesthetically pleasing and keeps me focused on my tasks, whether that's brainstorming for a new illustration project, tracking my work progress, or organizing my resources and references. One of Notion's features I found surprisingly useful is the ability to embed various file types right into my workspace. This means I can have sketches, mood boards, and final works all in one place, which has been a game-changer for my project organization. However, as a creation tool, Notion isn't designed for creating illustrations, but rather organizing the process around it. You can't draw or design within the app, so illustrators will still need a dedicated software for that purpose. In conclusion, Notion has been a beneficial tool in terms of project management, task organization, and content planning. It's helped me keep my illustration projects organized and has improved my productivity. While it doesn't replace a dedicated drawing or design software, I would recommend Notion to any illustrator who needs a comprehensive tool for managing their projects, ideas, and resources efficiently. It's a powerful tool that can simplify your workflow and keep your creative process organized.

I'm convinced this is the pinnacle of note-taking apps so far. I used it for my personal and company documents. The integrations are great and the styling features are just robust enough to make most of what I want possible without spending too much time.
