Inside this workspace there are two databases: Epics and Features. In Notion I created a Product Tracking workspace and two pages for Epics and Features. Epics are huge requirements that break down to smaller requirements (Features).Īs a product gal, you want to write specifications, create product backlog, describe features, plan releases and track execution. Let’s take a simple Product Tracking process with Epics and Features. We’ll try to create a basic process in both tools. View - View Let’s create a workspace/space Translation sheet (as close as it can get) Fibery hasn’t found a good balance between freedom and complexity yet. It’s easier to get lost and abandon Fibery. It’s a curse, since entry barrier is higher, there are more moving pieces and you have to learn them all to create something useful. In Fibery you can create spaces with deep hierarchies, connect several processes together, extract information from several databases and replace sophisticated existing tools. You have richer expression power and more powerful medium. This diversity is a blessing and a curse. Richer vocabulary leads to more complex (but more powerful) medium. The vocabulary is much richer and you have to understand concepts like Space, Database, Field, View and Document. It’s impossible to build complex processes in Notion. When databases live inside pages, you have troubles connecting them, extracting information from several databases into a single view, building hierarchies of data. It’s a curse, since some concepts just can’t fit a piece of paper. Notion has found a great balance between freedom and complexity. It’s not a completely free canvas where you can draw, but you have to restrict freedom somewhere to reduce complexity. You just take a new piece of paper and transform it into a text, into a document, into a list of customers, into a meetings calendar, into a gallery of app mockups. You don’t have to learn complex vocabulary. This uniformity is a blessing and a curse. Philosophy Notion is paperĪlmost anything in Notion is a page. The major goal is to explain how Fibery is different and what strengths and weaknesses it has. As the Fibery CEO, I have to switch off the bias.
