by Notion LabsDocs and wikis
Docs, wikis, databases, forms and sites in one workspace, priced per member from $10 a month billed yearly.
Docs, wikis, databases, forms and published sites in one workspace for $10 per member a month, with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001.
Notion replaces several tools with one workspace: pages and wikis, databases with subtasks and dependencies, custom forms, published sites and automations, priced per member. Plus costs $10 a member billed yearly and adds unlimited guests, 30 days of page history and basic page analytics with a list of viewers; Business at $20 adds SAML SSO and Notion’s AI agent. Notion’s trust center lists SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, and any plan can export the whole workspace as HTML, Markdown and CSV.
Against 3 other products we reviewed in Docs and wikis: what you pay for with each, the five access facts, the plan limits we recorded and each review's bottom line. The note under the table says how each one was checked.

| Bottom line | From its public pages, Notion is the broadest workspace here, with open export formats on every plan and viewer analytics on Plus. Paying for every member and keeping audit logs and residency on Enterprise are what hold its score back. | From its public pages, Confluence puts the most security-review controls on its first paid plan and keeps every page version. Budget for Atlassian Guard if you need SAML SSO, and compare monthly and annual billing at your team size. | From its public pages, Coda (now Superhuman Docs) costs the least here when few people create docs, because Editors and Viewers are free. Admin, analytics and compliance controls sit on Enterprise, which is what lowers its score. | From its public pages, GitBook is strongest for published and developer docs: Git Sync, full history and free readers on published sites. As an internal wiki, readers inside the app are paid seats and admin controls sit on Enterprise, which lowers its score. |

Review from public pages
Written from Notion's public pages (pricing, security or privacy, and docs) as read on Oct 15, 2026. We did not sign up, and no hands-on run is published yet.
We read Notion's pricing page, security page, trust center and help docs on data residency, HIPAA and exporting on Oct 15, 2026; we did not sign up for this review. Our first load of the pricing page showed prices in Korean won, set by our location; the page has a currency switch, and in US dollars Plus is $10 per member a month billed yearly ($12 monthly) and Business $20 ($24). Plus and Enterprise carry a footnote: plans may not be available for every workspace.
The plan table is detailed. Page history runs 7 days on Free, 30 on Plus, 90 on Business and unlimited on Enterprise. The FAQ explains the analytics tiers: Free and Plus show who viewed a page and a chart of views, Business adds editors, and Enterprise adds workspace-wide and search analytics. SAML SSO is on Business; SCIM, the audit log and workspace analytics are on Enterprise.
The help docs say data residency and a HIPAA BAA are for Enterprise customers. Exports are generous: any page as PDF, HTML or Markdown and CSV, and the whole workspace as HTML, Markdown and CSV on every plan.
Databases, custom forms, published sites, charts and automations share one per-member price on Plus.
The whole workspace exports as HTML, Markdown and CSV, including on Free.
vs Coda: Coda’s bulk export covers only your own docs, as .txt and .csv files.
Plus shows a list of page viewers and a chart of views over time.
vs Confluence: Confluence Standard shows view counts; Coda lists doc and page analytics on Enterprise.
Business ($20 billed yearly) includes SAML SSO, private teamspaces and Notion Agent.
Paid plans charge per member. Guests are free, but they see only individual pages shared with them, not teamspaces.
SCIM, the audit log, data residency and a HIPAA BAA are listed for Enterprise only.
Workaround: Business adds SAML SSO and domain verification without an enterprise contract.
Free and Plus get a limited trial of Notion Agent, AI Meeting Notes and research mode; Business includes them.
Blocks are unlimited for one person but limited once a workspace has two or more members.
Notion bills every member: Plus is $10 a member a month billed yearly or $12 monthly, Business $20 or $24. For 30 people on Plus that is $300 a month billed yearly; with Notion Agent and SAML SSO on Business it is $600. Guests are free but see only pages shared with them. New members take a free seat or add a prorated one; removed members free a seat but earn no credit. Custom Agents use Notion credits at $10 per 1,000 after a free trial. Custom domains for sites are paid per domain.
Any plan can export the whole workspace as HTML, Markdown and CSV, with uploaded files. The help docs say the export leaves out pages the exporter cannot access, and that an export cannot be re-uploaded to rebuild a workspace. Business and Enterprise can also export the workspace as PDF.
From its public pages, Notion is the broadest workspace here, with open export formats on every plan and viewer analytics on Plus. Paying for every member and keeping audit logs and residency on Enterprise are what hold its score back.
