Notion made the document alive: a page can be a database, a board, a wiki. It is the best place to write how the company works. What it is not is the place where the company works: the sale, the delivery, the complaint and the invoice happen elsewhere, and Notion keeps the summary someone wrote.
| Notion | Delorean | |
|---|---|---|
| Writing | Unbeatable: pages, blocks, databases, wikis | Documents with folders, templates and comments. Simpler, less powerful |
| Tasks | A database you set up as a board | Tickets with owner, date, subtasks and activity, plus a public link for the customer |
| Customers | One more database | CRM with sales, quotes, complaints and loyalty |
| Operations | Documented, not run | Run: sales, logistics, support, till |
| Permissions | Per page and per workspace | Per folder, per project and per branch. A guest sees their project |
| AI | Writes and summarises inside the page | Agents that serve customers and take orders, plus Studio with Claude, GPT and Grok for copy, pieces and voice-overs |
| Generated files | Pasted into the page | Go to Documents with permissions, comments and the project folder |
| Price | Per person | Per module, unlimited people |
Written from each product's public documentation. They are mature tools and this page says where they are still better. No prices here: they change on their own and the page would end up lying without anyone touching it.
For writing, no: Notion is better. For the company to run in one place and not only be documented, yes.
Yes. Many write the wiki in Notion and operate in Delorean. What is worth bringing are the documents that travel with a project or a customer.
It has Documents with folders, templates and comments. Good for procedures; no databases inside a page.
Real tickets: owner, date, priority, subtasks, activity. Shareable by link with someone who has no account.
A CRM: each customer with their sales, quotes, complaints and points. Not a table someone maintains.
Agents that answer on WhatsApp and take orders, and Studio to generate pieces and voice-overs. Everything stays in company Documents.
Yes, on the file. And shared with project guests, who see that project and nothing else.
As files, into Documents. Notion databases have no equivalent.
As many as your company has. Per module, not per person.
In writing and organising knowledge. If what you need is a wiki, Notion wins outright.
