Sunsama is for elite professionals.
Notion is a tool for teams and companies that want a better way to manage knowledge, projects, documents, and collaboration. Individuals can also use the product for notes and organizing their lives.
I have many aspects and areas of my life; Sunsama helps me to manage all of them. The interface is clean and easy to use; I like the "Kanban for your life" philosophy that the team has going.
I guess they're assuming that it's no longer important, but that just doesn't work for me because I'm worried I'll forget about it entirely (which has happened a few times).
It doesn't take a super user to figure out how to get it up and running. Also, the customer service has been fantastic.
My biggest problem with the software is the cost.
There are many aspects that I love about this productivity tool. It has a great interface and a relatively low learning curve.
Right now, there isn't a native iOS or Android app. In order for mobile functionality you need to use it in-browser, which is hit or miss in terms of responsiveness.
This software is brilliant. For someone who has many tasks a day, it helps to prioritize with time estimates click and move tasks on day and week and month.
I'm a bit disappointed in the task completion cap for freemium individuals. Looking forward to seeing more from Sunsama.
I had fun watching tutorials and set up guides of other Notion users on YouTube - seems like Notion has a powerful fan base.
However, I am unable to write inline math in text blocks. Writing equations in a block and commenting/annotating the variables in the equations in the text blocks is an essential tool for engineers.
I love this app so much. I love that I can track everything from anywhere and I love that the app works according to what I want to get out of it.
Everything I dislike comes down to collaboration. I find the notifications inaccurate and setting up recurring reminders for project subtasks is a challenge.
I love being able to customize my workspace in a way that helps keep me organized and focused - something very challenging for me.
Have experienced a glitch where content was getting lost.
The best thing about Notion is the fact that it's so collaborative and easy to use with a team. It's perfect to manage your team, but also to collaborate and share your ideas.
Without recurring tasks and less task-oriented features it was a tough call to make. I wanted it to work so badly.
Susie: Hi, I'm Susie. I'm a brand strategist. I'm a solopreneur and I give Sunsama a five out of five star rating. Before trying Sunsama, we utilized Google Calendar, which was a mess of different colors trying to coordinate tasks and merge them in with calendar items, various lists on scrap papers and notebooks on my desk, and note-taking apps on my phone, sending myself text messages about things I want to do, and just generally not being very organized about time management. Sunsama changed all of that for me. It is a mindful approach to task management and time management, which is very meaningful for me, and has created a very positive and enjoyable habit out of scheduling my daily tasks. A friend of mine recommended Sunsama, and I consider her to be a very focused and a successful entrepreneur. When I found out that it was one of her secrets to success, I really wanted to give it a try. The integration of Sunsama is the absolute best part. They're very smart about their onboarding, which I really appreciate. It's not an app that you're going to walk into blindly and have to figure out on your own. Sunsama's onboarding method brings you into the app slowly. You get an email a day over the course of 10 days, and it introduces new features and benefits and ways to utilize the app. By day 10, it's a habit and you feel very confident using it. I would say download the free trial and get into that onboarding process as soon as you can. You will very quickly see the benefits of tracking your time, categorizing your time, and another great feature is the report at the end of the week showing you exactly where you spent your time.
Michael C.: Hi, I'm Michael. I'm Vice President of Marketing at KORONA POS, and I give Notion a five out of five. Prior to Notion we were using Monday. Monday served our purposes pretty well. It's a decent platform for task management and project management, but some of the user experience and tracking of different projects fell a little short, so we switched to Notion and it's been great ever since. We decided to go with Notion one, it has a great reputation online. Product reviews across the board are solid. Two, we had a few team members internally who used Notion just privately and really, really liked it. So made it a pretty easy decision. It was affordable to try out, and we stuck with it since. Getting started with Notion was remarkably easy. The onboarding process was simple. We were able to have a free trial just to make sure that we liked it, but then once going live, getting the information and projects started was quite easy on my end as the administrator and then all of our users being able to navigate it themselves and update certain projects, add comments, attach files, anything like that. Super simple. So there was next to no learning curve. Before getting Notion for us, we had used a few different platforms for project and task management. All of them kind of came with slight hurdles and hiccups that files weren't being attached correctly or a project had been updated. Somebody had made a comment, but that it didn't reflect properly. So once we got Notion, tracking all of our content production for our blog, tracking different tasks within the marketing department, tracking video production became a lot easier. So if anything, we just wish that we would've made the switch to Notion sooner.
