### "Nuclino for the Weirdos "

July 25, 2023

5.0

I am looking to jump start several businesses and writing projects in collaboration and individually. Nuclino has provided a way for me to share and organize my information seamlessly and skillfully. Although I am just an average joe, I feel more productive and professional while using Nuclino. I think it is a good platform for anyone who is striving to create an impact in the world.

Pros

I enjoy the user friendly interface and the simplicity of the project creation and sharing process.

Cons

So far, I will say it was a little difficult to understand how to create an outline at first. This is my only con and it really does not detract from all the pros of the platform.

Switched from

[Google Docs](https://www.capterra.com/p/160756/Google-Docs/)

I found that Google docs was not something that everyone outside of a professional setting would know how to use. The folders and subfolders make it feel more like an office meeting rather than a collaborative process. It seemed very rigid to me, which is not something I want my collaborators to struggle with when creating. I feel like every person has a purpose and not being able to efficiently use a platform should not keep us from acheiving our goals.

### "Delightful markdown handling and a straightforward UI. Scaling nicely, too."

November 4, 2024

5.0

Very pleased. I have shared a few emails with the \[sensitive content hidden\] and was pleased to get some feedback on the feature ideas that I shared. It's a likeable tool and one has the feeling that it's put together by a team that care. I'm already known as the dorky research guy at work so I have been recommending it to a couple of our associated non-profits!

Pros

I discovered Nuclino after searching for a wiki/notepad/knowledge base tool storing LLM outputs that I've been capturing both for personal use and for work. Because LLMs tend to output as markdown, seamless markdown handling was a top requirement. I initially used Obsidian for this purpose but quickly realised that for the knowledge repository to have any use (ie, for me to read the outputs I was storing) convenient mobile access was a must. Others were clearly intended for use in the business context / as teams and as a passionate but solo user, the features didn't make sense for my use-case. The the main challenge: it was surprisingly difficult to find a tool that: a) had the kind of seamless markdown handling Obsidian offers and which b) could handle my import of notes. Although 3K doesn't seem like a huge "wiki" to me, it simply overwhelmed a couple of systems I tried. I found it hard to believe that any knowledge management tool could crumble under what seems to me like a fairly modest volume. Nuclino has presented zero problems in that respect so far - neither in loading times nor in indexing performance. Everything saves pretty much instantly and I haven't had any difficulty in retrieving saved items via search. In other words, it provides the level of performance that I've long been accustomed to with tools like Google Drive. The import process was straightforward with one exception: it didn't like some of the non-standard markdown syntax which Obsidian adds. So a word of warning to users making the same migration: consider running your notes through standardisation process before importing. I got ChatGPT to write me up a quick Python script and it did the job! Nuclino had the most fluid markdown handling out of the box of any of the tools I tried and I instantly like that it didn't try to be too "clever". A lot of tools in the knowledge management space try to bring users along on a complicated system. I liked that Nuclino got out of the way and leaved me to do all I wanted it to do: give me a nice and fluid notepad to save outputs, edit them, and read them. I also like that some thought has been put into the data export feature (I'll come to backups below). I initially thought that the archives didn't contain an index but was happy to stand corrected. You get your files back too. I wish I could say that this was standard, but quite a few SaaS tools forget to liberate large parts of the user's data footprint. It's nice to see that Nuclino offers a data export tool that does what it promises. It's also good to see that they're adding features (public workspaces were announced today). The UI is minimalist, but not static. For anyone who appreciates markdown editing and wants a cloud experience that can mirror those in some of the local-only tools, I would say this is a great place to start.

Cons

Not Nuclino-specific, but the only reason I ever self-host (and avoid SaaS) is because I'm hesitant to fully hand off control of my data, especially when it's either sensitive or business-related. I was hoping to be able to use the API to extract data, but I couldn't coerce it into doing that. Some of the other tools I looked at had richer APIs which explicitly supported this purpose. On the plus side, Nuclino does let you export your workspace as a Zip. So with a bit of scripting, I was able to achieve my objective of having a cloud backup of my data in a roundabout way (I just need to remember to pull down the zip once a week).

While I appreciate the power and flexibility that Obsidian offers (and I wasn't looking forward to migrating my notes), I needed a tool that was readily accessible from a web UI.

### "Nuclino would be best in small group environments"

November 24, 2025

3.0

Overall experience has been so-so. Again, not super user friendly, and while the open structure is nice, it is almost too open when you have many people using it.

Pros

Nuclino is a nice place for the entire company to share ideas and task instructions. Think of it as an opportunity to save all of your instructions for tasks in the same place, easily accessible to all.

Cons

Nuclino is great in theory, however it was not easy to get all of our team onboard. I also find that Nuclino links don't seem to work unless you are already logged in.

November 27, 2025

Hi Dana, thanks for sharing your feedback. Nuclino is designed as an internal team collaboration tool, but you can make individual items accessible without login by sharing them publicly, and you can publish entire workspaces when broader access is needed. We'd love to learn more about what would have made it easier to onboard your team. If you're open to sharing more details, feel free to reach out at contact@nuclino.com.

### "Nuclino strikes the right balance of simplicity and robustness"

October 1, 2024

5.0

I really like this app. Do I wish it were easier to publish to the public? Sure. But you can export to Obsidian for that. Would I recommend Obsidian instead of Nuclino? Personally no. Obsidian seems more obtuse for non-programmers; like it was made by programmers for other developers... Nuclino seems more human native. It requires less poetics of code mentality and familiarity. Basically I love the product but - as with all 'Nirvana' or 'one product to organize all' products like OneNote, Evernote and Obsidian etc.. it really comes down to how you want to approach the mountain (technical climber or day hiker). Nuclino is somewhere between Github and Evernote and most people will find that to be a comfort zone that strikes a nice balance. I should add the performance is amazing.

Pros

Extremely easy to use. Relatively intuitive interface with strengths in the area of easy organization and multiple view types ready at hand. The graph view is especially useful. Great performance and good for people taking notes on their phone but also using desk/laptops.

Cons

As a maturing product, there will be hard decisions to be made on the spectrum from ease of use to depth of functionality. Like simple is great (see one function apps) but robust feature sets (think Blender or Adobe suite) increases the learning curve. I would love the ability to see the graph in a manner that included links between pages (mereologies) vs. currently just the parent/child relationship (taxonomies). I'd also love a back button! But as I think of these things I suspect the developers have too and I'm sure they are working on ways to tier or nest controls to continue to strike the magical balance between robustness and simplicity. Nuclino is a great app and any cons are probably largely subjective preferences.

### "Nuclino - Simple, but amazing Documentation Tool"

December 23, 2024

4.0

Nuclino integrated well into our team as a small to medium sized company which needs a simple but effective way to documented your work. Due to the great collaboration features it integrates amazing in our meeting structure and organizing meetings.

Pros

Simple, well structured documentation platform which works quite well for collaboration.

Cons

Linking articles between each other is not an easy feature.

### " Efficient and Simple, but Could Use a Few More Features"

November 4, 2024

4.0

Nuclino has been a fantastic tool for organizing ideas and collaborating with others in a minimalistic environment. While it could benefit from a few more advanced editing controls, it does a great job as a quick, easy-to-use knowledge management tool.

Pros

Nuclino is quick to respond and makes it incredibly easy to create and manage content. The simplicity of its interface and the intuitive design allow you to organize information seamlessly, which is great for teams or individuals looking for a straightforward tool to manage knowledge.

Cons

Splitting items into workspaces can sometimes feel a bit confusing, especially if you're managing multiple projects or groups. Additionally, it lacks some advanced editing features, like a "find and replace" function, which would be useful for larger documents.

### "Great place for your wikis!"

February 10, 2025

4.0

Overall our experience was really good, we were able to take full advantage of the tool and it improved the way internal information was shared within our team.

Pros

It proved to be a convenient way to have our company's wikis stored and accessible for the team. We were able to build a library for our coworkers to easily access and review at their convenience.

Cons

Some of our users struggled with finding some of the information in the way it got sorted within the app. For everyday use regarding project management, it was a little less intuitive than other potential tools.

### "Nuclino is Knowledge Management that Doesn't get in your Way"

October 1, 2024

4.0

The main reason to use Nuclino is that it is an overall well-designed piece of software that doesn't get in your way. It may lack in certain features, but the point of Nuclino is not to be overloaded with features. It is just a simple and effective way to store information, and it works very well as that.

Pros

1\. Nuclino is very easy to write and edit on - the text editor functions are simple yet effective 2. Nuclino is very simple to understand - there aren't pages and pages of menus and endless functions. It cuts down a knowledge base to what is required 3. Nuclino is reasonably priced 4. The graph view is a great piece of design

Cons

1\. The list view can be confusing to understand and click through, especially when you have many different sub folders. It is hard to get an idea for where you are in the folder structure when compared to, say, Windows File Explorer. 2. Moving items around in different folders can be frustrating when you have to drag them a lot with the mouse 3. Trying to edit hyperlinks can be annoying when right clicking brings up the normal right-click windows menu and double clicking to try to edit in Nuclino just clicks on the link

### "Best wiki/documentation for your team"

June 29, 2023

5.0

We use Nuclino for our quality system, our internal protocols and wiki, and IT documentation. Nuclino is very efficient in these areas. I cannot say for project management as we never gave it a try. Overall I really enjoy working with Nuclino: it's the most zen productivity software I used so far.

Pros

Ease of use for non-tech-savvy colleagues. If you have ever used a text editor you know how to use Nuclino and thanks to its smart features and GUI, you cannot get it wrong. For instance, the same text style is enforced in all the pages: you will gain a tremendous amount of time not having to think about it.

Cons

The one feature that I would use and that is still missing is the integration of bibtex citations.

March 15, 2023

5.0

I have been very pleased with Nuclino for its functional performance, its team’s openness to new concepts, and its teams continuing feature expansion. It does what it says it does, and is easy to work with the whole way through.

Pros

Nuclino has allowed us to quickly and easily scale a knowledge base for a complex public company. Now instead of having to answer the same question over and over or instead of scratching our heads to remember how we did something in the past, we can point to or find the information in Nuclino.

Cons

It would be nice to get more of the analytics and adoption/participation metrics from any Lino without having to subscribe to a higher subscription tier. The templates they offer are good, but they don’t necessarily offer a “stupid simple” “just do it this way” standard setup (that I know of).

I hate this feedback form, too complicated, a lot of information being asked. At least tell about time it will take in your email feedback card. For start-ups or project with friends there is no free plan - as in Notion.

### "A powerful yet simple to use knowledge management tool"

August 9, 2023

5.0

Nuclino is valuable tool either you are working alone or with a team as it fulfills the need to have all your information from SOPs to metting minutes and all sorts of documents organized and easily accessible.

Pros

When juggling several projects and gathering substantial amounts of information from various sources and collaborators, it can become overwhelming fairly quickly. Nuclino offers the tools to organize, map, and manage all your content, enabling you to navigate visually through it. This way, you can focus on the areas that require the most attention. The AI sidekick and integrations with the most common tools are a definite plus.

Cons

It takes a while to get used to the workflows of the platform but after getting used and define a workflows the work gets streamlined.

### "Nuclino for Karman Space Programme"

October 23, 2022

5.0

Karman Space Programme has seen a massive increase in our productivity since moving to Nuclino. Managing over 50 individual project members, and just as many individual tasks, has been made easy thanks to this application.

Pros

Nuclino has a very intuitive user interface. It is easy to introduce new partners to the group (and to specific groups relevant to each of them).The ability to separate each group, then edit, update and manage them each individually, has been crucial in maintaining proper organisation. Groups can also be easily edited with new information, allowing for an up to date and reliable information network.

Cons

We at Karman Space Programme have had no problems with using Nuclino as our primary tool for organisation.
