  • Compare Notion and xTiles for Task Management: Notion offers tasks as databases or checkboxes but doesn’t have easy access to a place where you can view all your tasks. In contrast, xTiles enhances task management with built-in tasks, a special task block, and a task panel, enabling seamless task creation and access across projects for optimal efficiency.”
  • Compare Notion’s Databases and xTiles’ Collections: Notion requires you to set up a database structure from the start, with items restricted to one collection. In xTiles, you can add blocks and tiles to collections anytime, and items can belong to multiple collections, offering greater flexibility.
