I tried Notion a few months ago, but I found that the work involved in setting up my own system with pages, databases, boards etc was too much. I felt like I was procrastinating by creating tasks for myself involving setting up a productivity system, when really good alternatives (like Trello) that are simple to use already exist. So I deleted Notion and just got to work. But I still get tempted to try it again sometimes, it looks so fancy and cool.

I have been using notion so far, but I agree with some other comments that say that they procrastinate when try figuring out what and how they're going to make their notes, so I am interested in start using trello, because it's simplicity and some friends use it as well and they are being really productive with it.

Phenomenal and comprehensive video. I use both for different things...more content based and large amount of information in Notion and more project-based action items and to do lists in Trello. The customizations in both are off the charts and both premium project management tools when used the right way. Solid Review my man.

I currently use Trello however I'm planning on how I want to setup my notion to track my life and keep notes

Thanks for that Scott. Agreed with the points - however when it comes to pricing, Trello is not restricted to a $10/month per user option for a team. I have a small team of 6 users and with Trello Gold (only paid by me), I pay $45 a year (that's 3.75 a month). This means that although it may not be packaged as a "Personal Pro" for individual users, it can be done very easily while still collaborating with other unpaid/free team members. I might call this a tie myself. ;) Thanks very much for the video. Great to compare and keep up with alternative options. I'm a happy Trello user and it's MS Teams integration is very good for my work.

At the moment, I'm torn between the two. After using Trello pretty religiously for the past 18 months or so, I've been using Notion to manage tasks recently. Still not totally sold on Notion. I have moved a lot of my Evernote data into Notion, however. It's much better for linking ideas than Evernote is. As you said, Notion can be a little too complicated unless you have a lot of time to play with it. Tough call! I'll continue to test.

I use Trello for team collaboration and a google calendar for my personal tasks. Notion seems too complicated, too much work to manage it for my simple needs.

Thank you so much, I did not know which to choose, thanks to your video I am going to choose NOtion

I use notion as my brain. I found that I can adjust the way I see things in a format that helps me. As for trello, I like it but not as much as notion.

Great Vid!! You got the categorries right! Thanks... I'm sticking with Trello because its simple to use

Thanks Scott, perfect timing for me as I use Trello and have been thinking about trying Notion!

oh man you saved my life, congrats for such an amazing educational video, your presenting skills are incredible, you go on point, super valuable, keep it up!

Thanks. I now can decide which one better for me. As a PhD student, certainly Notion is better since it is more personal, has more tools, easy to take notes, and we will always carry a laptop, not just a phone.

Very helpful! Good stuff.

Thanks Scott!. I have been using Trello for a long time, and I am tempted to move to Notion. I am a researcher, so I feel Notion may be the best option. Right now my things are all over the place. However, how about content migration/data export? What if I want to migrate to something else in future. I wouldn't want to do everything all over again!

Notion. Brilliantly versatile. Research and work tool, you can build a second brain in Notion. Trello is simple, Notion allows you to build tools for a variety of tasks and integrate data across them. And its export is brilliant as well. However I suspect you have to be fairly technical to get the most out of Notion, at least understanding how relational databases work is really going to help you. It's not a turnkey app, but if you make the effort it can become your main workflow.

i used to use Notion for everything (tasks, calendar, note-taking, project management etc.) but i recently stopped using it and replaced it with apps for each category. Sorted 3 for task management, google calendar, roam for note taking and trello for project management and i feel like this is a lot better for me. don’t get me wrong notion is a great tool i just feel like it is not for me.

I've never heard of notion. It was interesting to find out. trello was used but eventually switched to leadertask. Can you try it in another video?

Thanks for the breakdown. I use Trello currently but was curious about Notion because of what some other game devs were saying about it. Personally, it looks a bit too much for what I need it for but maybe I might try to dip my toes in with a new project later down the line.

I recently left Trello. I am an individual user and Trello is focusing their growth in team applications. In talking with tech support on a performance issue, it was conveyed to me that single users, even with the Gold subscription, were not the future within their business model. Too bad. Now they get zero dollars from me and I had been a subscriber for several years.

Notion has replaced Apple Notes for me, and Trello is what we use for project management and collaboration. Both softwares are great!

Really good comparison

I would love to have one tool that does my notes and task/project management but it seems like Notion doesn’t have the awesome automations that I rely on in Trello...

I agree with all these verdicts.

Clickup for Project Management, and I am trying to use Notion for Life Management and my personal goals, but there is something about Trello that just keeps me going back to it. Maybe its the visuals, I like having a background image, just wish the filter was better, the default filter sucks!!!!

I use Trello and a paper planner. Perfect combo.

Absolutely love Trello!

Great video. Thanks

Well I am using trello to keep my work in order and is the best tool I have never used. Looking for something to keep my notes organized and definitely will give a try to notion. Evernote and Onenote just are not my favourite. I think like I need more than one app 💻

Really good vid 👍🏼

We use trello but I find we often neglect it and some projects still get forgotten. I wish there was more reminder alerts and maybe a way to integrate it into a day to day schedule

Trello began changing the way you get your boards. There is no more personal personal board. Instead you have to assign it to a project. If you want a personal board, it becomes a personal project board. Moreover, if you have or had personal boards, which were not a part of any team boards, you cant move them to new project, so they are just hanging there without categories. The only way to move them into the system type would be recreating them from the scratch, which can be very frustrating. As a last point, even if you have Trello gold subscription (for personal use), you can have a maximum of 10 boards per project. If you want or need more, go upgrade to a business plan, even if you are still the only user. They announced to adjust these issues, but I, like many other personal Trello users, found it frustrating. So, is Trello good? Yes. But I would explore it detail before subscribing to it again.

What would you recommend to store ideas, website, pictures and organize these for future reference?

Very very good job. I love Trello and use it a lot (free version). The simplicity can not be beat. I looked at Notion and decided it was too much effort to learn, but your video is making me re-think that. I am using this for myself but the free version of Trello has no calendar view and you can not assign tasks (something I don't generally do anyway). One thing that you did not mention that is real important to me is the ease of seeing what I have already done. In Trello, I move the card to a table for completed tasks which is organized by month and I can literally see every task. I put lots of notes in the comments of each task. I also have started using Trello cards with checklists as a habit tracker. One card for each habit for each month and the checklist has one item for each day of the month. I create this once as a Template and tweak the size of the checklist depending on the days of the month. This works great and I can make notes as I check off each day. In general, the ease, simplicity and wide variety of possible arrangements makes Trello hard to beat, but from what you said, I may just look again at Notion. Many thanks.

I use notion as I created the best template working for me :)

Maybe now i'll try to use trello :))

I like to use Asana for organizing my Business. I tried Trello for about three months but Asana seems to be more professional or more of a project manager.

Until very recently I didn't use any of those... I tried trello but couldn't really stick to it...then I tried notion, but I found it really complicated to set up... Now I give a try to clickup... We will see... :)

For Notion Pricing if you are a student or teacher the pricing is free for personal pro.

GOOD VIDEO!!!!

I would give the edge to Trello but it is very stable and it has an offline mode. You'll always have access to your boards. Notion does not have an offline mode and has issues with reliability and speed.

Interesting, Ease of use I think is the same as for basic functions, for more advanced functions then agreed. Flexibility agreed minus the lack of Notion API, Collaboration I disagree if you know how to set Notion up but that is ease of use. Customization agreed, integration agreed. Pricing agreed. Trello is a boxed app, Notion is a no code app builder....

Scott, I am sorry to differ, collaboration and mobile app should have gone to notion. Notion is extremely incredible and there is no comparison of it when it comes to productivity.

Trello is good but using butler in proper way is a key technique. Time tracking should be added in better way. Export data to excel is also an expense.

I like TRELLO's UI more, so I choose TRELLO.

What kind of mic do you use? Your audio is super clean

im using notion

Using Quip.

Using Trello

I tried about 20 different ones and ended up with Trello. It’s ugly as far as the aesthetics but it’s easy to use. Notion looks super cool but was giving me a headache when I tried using it.

There is now a view feature on Trello

I like to use Evernote, Trello + mindomo

GOOD INDEPENDENT REVIEW!

i'm using trello right now.

I try to pick a productivity app for the first time. I have a small team of 2 people, and might expand next year. I also hope to teach my children (17 and 14 years old) to use this kidn of productivity apps. Which one should I pick? things, trello, notion. (better be a FREE version, in case my company grow much bigger)

using notion

you forgot to mention that Trello puts ALOT behind a paywall (you can only have 1 powerup per board) where as other apps like Notion or Asana at least let you use a functional calendar or various views before paying.

Notion is too complicated for me. I use Evernote for note taking and file cabinet (webclipping), Google Keep for simple To-Do lists and Trello for project management (simple and easy working interface - better structure than Keep).

What about Trello Gold!? 🙂

I am fine with Google keep...yup Google keep

I use Notion

lack information about security, encryption

Notion

Trello all the way

Do nothing but sleep or sex in the bedroom is my favourite: D 2:28

I use Restyaboard, a free alternative to Trello.

Notion all the way not even close Trello is limited and ugly interface, Notion is a monster if you design it properly and much better to look at

Just notion

Really good comparison
