Craft vs Notion
Complete Comparison Guide: See how Craft compares to Notion on speed, offline access, AI, and design.
Which one is right for you?
Notion is powerful, but that power comes with complexity and performance trade-offs.
Craft
Notion
Craft loads instantly with thousands of documents while Notion can lag. If you want something that just works - fast, beautiful, works fully offline, and is ready when you are - Craft is your answer. Native apps, not Electron.
Easy migration
Move from Notion in three steps
Create a Notion connection
Open Craft's Notion importer, then create an Access token connection in Notion with Read content enabled. Enable Read comments too if you want to import comments.
Grant access and copy the token
In the connection's Content access tab, add each page and database you want to import, then copy the Access token from the Configuration tab.
Import to Craft
Paste the Access token into Craft, choose a Space and optional destination folder, configure comments, and start the import. It continues in the background.
