Creates customizable systems and improve team collaboration
Notion is a very flexible and customizable platform, allowing users to create whatever they need. The most impactful feature for project management is the ability to invite multiple client stakeholders without complication. Once I understand the basics, it's easy to use despite an initial learning curve. It also significantly improves team collaboration through customized views and visualizations of data.

A project management solution that can be automated to suit your needs
I rate the initial setup a seven out of ten because it's easy. We had to really understand the solution because it's huge, and we had to know which sections to bite off first. I might even rate the initial setup a nine out of ten if you know what you've got. Once we had all our data and our migration plan, it was quite easy. The challenge lies more with the organization than the system itself. Sciforma is one of the easiest tools to get going with from a technical point of view, but knowledge is key. Deploying the solution takes from six months to a year, depending on the level of data wanted. While deploying the solution, we have to first compile the user's requirements. Then we have to drop a baseline specification in parallel with a concept rollout. Based on what's in the concept, we pick from what the client understands to be the relevant portions, the minimum requirements. Then I convert it into a project execution plan and then execute the plan. After that, we have initial data collection for configuration and then final live data. Then we have the sign-off processes of different departments. There's a lot of upfront work to get the data prepared for transmission, and that is a big challenge. We did almost a thousand projects per year, so there were quite a lot of decisions to speed up the deployment process. The biggest challenge was to get our internal data organized and map it.

"I find Sciforma's customizability valuable."
"The integrated portfolio and project management approach is the most valuable feature of Sciforma."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement in the solution is the absence of integrated charts."
"Notion has one big downside: the lack of an offline mode. If the internet or Notion's servers are down, I cannot access information. This is a big disadvantage."
"The linked view of database, along with the sharing and permission settings, are areas with shortcomings in the solution that need improvement."
"It is complicated to connect Notion with external systems."
"The main problem with Notion is that it's not flexible enough for all of the use cases we intend to address. For instance, it is challenging to focus on a single KPI as it's mandatory to have a chart for this purpose, complicating some of our use cases."
"The product could be integrated with external platforms."
"User management needs improvement."
"There could be an automation feature included in the product."

Artificial intelligence is being used to help with project organization on a collection of different data from multi-data sources."
"The report developer needs a bit of streamlining."
"The solution's graphical user interface (GUI) is a bit old and could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing depends on the usage plans."
"It's pretty affordable."
"I pay around $100 per year."
"Notion offers a free plan that covers most functionalities. Clients are only prompted to upgrade if they require AI capabilities, priced at $10 for unlimited usage, or if they need to add team members, typically around $10 per member."
"The pricing structure is quite reasonable, and the basic plan covers the most essential features."
"The product has good pricing."
"Notion is free to use."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. We only need to pay for it if we use it in the workspace."
"I rate the pricing a four out of ten because Sciforma's rates are good."
"The solution's pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."
