Project Manager Writing and Editing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source DR Daniel R. Manager Information Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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). Alternatives considered [Outline](https://www.capterra.com/p/210246/Outline/) Reason for choosing Nuclino I ran into issues importing notes into Outline. Nuclino handled the import process fluidly. Switched from [Obsidian](https://www.capterra.com/p/220063/Obsidian/) 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. Review Source DM Dana M. Fulfillment Manager Publishing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source Response from Nuclino 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. FS Florian S.

Independent Use Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Microsoft OneNote](https://www.capterra.com/p/227211/Microsoft-OneNote/) Reason for choosing Nuclino simplicity. ease of use. Two factor authentication is annoying if you are just trying to jot a note down and Microsoft has gone a bit over the top with security. Review Source Response from Nuclino October 7, 2024 Hi Mike! Thanks so much for your detailed review. We've counted your vote for easier content publishing, adding a back button in the desktop app, and showing links between items in the graph view. Federico A.

We are also able to link external documents for easy sharing. These features really enhance the company's real-time collaboration. Since this is an easy tool, we expend very little time training our partners.  Cons One thing that they can improve is the formatting tools, some variety is needed to have a pleasant UX.  If the company grows and uses more space this tool suffers, we only recommended for medium or small databases.  Pricing can be expensive if you use it with large teams.  Alternatives considered [Confluence](https://www.capterra.com/p/136446/Confluence/) Reason for choosing Nuclino When comparing this tool with similar solutions, the ratio cost / benefit was the best. Really work for us.  Review Source JP Johannes P. Software Engineer Insurance Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source AE Andrea E. Team Lead E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source Response from Nuclino February 14, 2025 Hi Andrea, thanks for sharing your feedback! We’d love to hear more about which parts of the app felt less intuitive or how we can improve the way information is organized. Please feel free to reach out to us at contact@nuclino.com – we’d really appreciate it! PL Petrisor L. Solution architect Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### " 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. Alternatives considered [Notion](https://www.capterra.com/p/186596/Notion/) Reason for choosing Nuclino Easier to use and more clear user management Review Source Response from Nuclino November 11, 2024 Hi Petrisor, thank you for the kind words and feedback! We're happy to know that Nuclino’s simplicity and speed are working well for you. We’ve logged your vote for a "find and replace" feature, and if you’d like to share more details about your experience with items and workspaces, please feel free to reach out at contact@nuclino.com. We’re always looking for ways to improve and would love to hear more! UÖ Umut Ö.

Search shortcuts (enter, double enter, triple enter) Cons Search. But has improved a lot lately, now supports a lot of formats when searching. Review Source BL Billy L. Operations Assistant Law Practice Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "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 Review Source Response from Nuclino October 7, 2024 Hi Billy, thanks a lot for your review! We're glad to hear that you find Nuclino easy to use. We've also noted your feedback on the list view, moving items, and link editing – your insights are really helpful! IM Ingrid M. Student Computer Games Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "An useful tool" November 4, 2024 4.0 My overall experience with Nuclino has been pretty positive. Pros Easy to understand user interface. Can create various useful pages in the same workspace. Can also easily collaborate with others. Cons The search feature sometimes doesn't work smoothly. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Mostly a rant about Nuclino" February 8, 2023 5.0 It was good, I will probably use Nuclino as a journal, but Notion can do that as well. Pros — The animation of the to-do checkmark is satisfying.— You can change the knowledge database into a mind map graph. Cons — Full text search only looks for title pages.— No simple way of adding reminders to tasks.— No Inline Databases like in Notion Switched from [Notion](https://www.capterra.com/p/186596/Notion/) Just to try it out. Review Source Response from Nuclino February 13, 2023 Thanks for the review! The full-text search includes all content across all your workspaces. Please make sure to press Enter after typing your query in the search bar. We've also counted your vote for adding reminders, it's something we already have on our radar.

Thought I miss your comment+notification system very much. Pros Typography and comment+notification system, check my comment before. Cons 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.

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. Review Source AL Alastair L. Team Advisor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Strong multi-user collaboration tool" July 27, 2022 4.0 Pros As a student society nuclino offers a simple to maintain easy to use software solution to what previously was based within an online shared-drive. Allowing us to visualise our information has helped us to more effectively onboard our yearly intake of new university students Cons At first integration of the software into our workflow was difficult but this was overcome with time Review Source Felix L. Founder Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A great company wiki" August 28, 2018 5.0 Visualization of various knowledge graphs as well as check lists. Pros What I liked the most about Nuclino was the ability to work visually. It's really helpful to be able to structure data in a mind map rather than a list. The real-time collaborative editor helps me work efficiently with my remote team members. Really happy about the release of a Slack integration. Was pleasantly surprised when I started using the tool. Our team needed an easy-to-use wiki/knowledge base to keep track of our projects, store documentation, and collaborate and so far we've been pretty happy with Nuclino. Cons Nothing I can think of, it accomplished everything we would expect from a team wiki. Review Source MM Mina M. Customer Experience Specialist Financial Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Knowledge base " July 4, 2023 5.0 awsome Pros Clean and smooth environment and it's so easy to use Cons Text formatting is very weak , need more options in text formatting Review Source Response from Nuclino July 6, 2023 Hi Mina, thanks for your review, happy to hear that you find Nuclino easy to use! We aim to keep the formatting options simple to make the editing experience easy and keep the content consistent, but we understand that different users have different requirements. If there are any specific formatting options you'd like to see in Nuclino, please send us an email at contact@nuclino.com with more details. We'll make sure to review your suggestions and consider implementing them in future updates. Thanks again for your input! VR Verified Reviewer UX Lead Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very flexible project documentation tool" September 13, 2018 5.0 I use Nuclino to document the projects I work on. It serves as a wiki for the project which helps anyone joining the project at later stages understand what was done during the design process, and why certain decisions were made. It is definitely a big step up from using Google Docs and Google Sheets which gets very messy during the course of a project. Pros The way Nuclino is built makes the platform very flexible towards the way you work. The software's very generous free tier lets you explore all the main features. You can even have unlimited teams within the free tier, within which you can have unlimited workspaces. You can think of workspaces as 'projects'. You can then create clusters (think: folders) and items (think: pages). There are 4 views within a workspace: All, Recent, Board and Graph, which is what makes the application great. The Board view is very similar to a Kanban board that even lets you drag and drop 'items' between 'clusters'. Nuclino also has apps for iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and Linux. Cons I felt that the only missing piece to this platform was the inability to set reminders. Review Source NM Nicholas M. Owner Computer Games Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "What could have been..." February 2, 2024 4.0 Pros The board was most helpful. The graph looks awesome as well. Cons Keeping track of what each person has done over time, not just the most recent changes. Review Source Bruno C. IT Service Engineer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We use it as the base of knowledge in our small company" August 3, 2019 5.0 It became the center of information of my company. Pros I created a digital marketing agency, and all the toolkits, customer information, and the "cookbook" of how to do our work is in Nuclino. Currently I'm using only the free plan, but definitely, the paid subscription also worth the cost. It has a web app, android app, windows app, and even Linux app! Can't complain. The interface is clean and it's very very easy to use. You can upload files, links, images, etc. Cons The app only works online. Which means, you cannot write offline and then wait for the next sync to update the new information in the cloud. Review Source Aviva R. COO Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great knowledge base for capturing information" September 15, 2019 4.0 Pros We use Nuclino daily to make sure we're documenting everything - from sales playbooks to HR processes to specific data collection checklists. It's easy to use, update, comment, and share. Cons Search functionality could be somewhat improved, as could adding users to different workspaces UI.
