Notion vs Trello
Priced at four team sizes, the features checked against both pricing pages.
Take Notion if you want a wiki with tasks inside, tasks, docs and goals in one app and a free plan a small team can run on. Take Trello if you want boards as the interface, a free plan a small team can run on and the least to learn. Trello is cheaper at every size we price.
What each one actually costs
The real monthly figure at four team sizes with the add-ons each platform forces on you included, from the same engine the shortlist quiz uses. The cheaper of the two is marked on every row.
| Notion | Trello | Difference | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 users | $0 | $0 | level |
| 3 users | $36 | $0 | $36 |
| 5 users | $60 | $0 | $60 |
| 10 users | $120 | $0 | $120 |
What is actually different
- Notion lists docs and notes and intake forms where Trello does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.
- Trello lists a timeline or Gantt view and boards where Notion does not, which is their own wording rather than something we verified.
No verdict from me yet
I have not used Notion or Trello on camera, so everything on this page comes from their own pricing pages, re-read weekly, and nothing from my own experience. When I review either, it will be here.

Make a third option? If you make task and project management tools and it is missing from this list, ask to be shortlisted. Listings are free and cannot be bought.
Neither, or not sure?
A head to head only helps once you have picked the two. The shortlist asks 6 questions about who the work is for and how you like to see it, and gives you four picks priced at your own team size, from all 15.
