Notion review

Notion is not a planner out of the box; it is a set of pages and databases that you shape into one. That flexibility is why it ranks here. The pricing page lists a free plan for individuals that includes databases with subtasks, dependencies and custom properties, basic forms and sites, and Notion Calendar for connecting multiple calendars. Notion Calendar shows project deadlines and timelines alongside events, lets you drag database items to new dates, sends scheduling links and auto-blocks busy slots across connected calendars. It connects to Google Calendar, Zoom and Apple Calendar and has iOS and Android widgets. The cost is setup time: you design the weekly view, the habit tracker or the goal board yourself or start from a template, and AI features are only a trial on Free and Plus. Notion's pricing page showed euro prices from our location in November 2026, so the USD price of Plus is marked pending. We compared documented features and published prices.
