What differentiates Notion from other similar products?

Notion provides a truly rich feature set that combines many of the tasks i was formerly completing in different software, from project management to document based collaboration.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect would be the incredible variety of ways I can customize Notion to specific use cases.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I have no major issues with Notion, and that's truly saying a lot given how much I use it for my work. One shortcoming would be that where I use notion for public facing resources, i'm unable to access analytics for viewership and clicks.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Notion works well for so many users as it can be used very simply (think Google docs) or for long term project management or database use on the more advanced end. They provide a consistent flow of new features or improvements, and work excellently for collaborative team work. Notion has allowed me to take 3-4 separate programs and accomplish the same work more effectively in one product.
