The choice of "alternatives" mentioned in the article, like "Hey", "Notion", "AirTable", etc. actually does more harm to the credibility to the article than good, because I can't think of any normal person using all these startup products for important tasks.
Hell, I think the only demographic who would have switched all their workflow tools to these would be people who live in Silicon Valley, just helping each other out.
- walljm 6y agoMy team (I am the director of software at my company) switched to Notion from Google Docs a little more than a year ago and I'm very happy with the change. Google Docs addresses a slightly different use case than Notion. Notion is one document for a lot of people, owned by the organization. Google Docs are docs owned by many people, often duplicated. Notion is much better for building documentation and for storing institutional knowledge. We still use Google docs for things that we don't need to share widely and don't need to be referenceable to a large number of people.
