    Slite is really really easy to use for my entire team and it integrates with many apps!

    I think it's a great alternative to Notion because Slite is really focus on making the best tool for writing down and sharing knowledge (at least from my pov) and they are proposing integrations with other specific tool like trello, github, slack, asana...So well you have the best of both world. Notion is great but it's like lot of tools in one place but not the best ones.

    Coda.io vs Notion Comments

    When using Notion vs Coda.io primarily for databases (with an eye towards project management), I prefer Coda.io's implementation. It offers more customization of database entry layouts, and handles properties in a way that's more logical to my mind. That said, it's a little more awkward to put together at first than Notion, but once I got things moving in a direction I liked that wasn't really an issue.

    it can do basically everything Notion can do, plus it has buttons and other powerful features, and it has a public API, which Notion is still working on.
