Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Notion AI add-on costs $8/user/month (or $10/month billed monthly) on top of your plan - this is not included in any tier

2

Training and onboarding time can be significant - Notion's flexibility means a steeper learning curve for teams migrating from simpler tools

3

Premium templates from the Notion marketplace can cost $10-$100+ per template for specialized workflows

4

Third-party integrations often require paid middleware like Zapier ($20-$50/month) since Notion's native integrations are limited

5

Consultant and setup costs range from $500-$5,000+ for teams wanting a professionally designed workspace

6

Guest collaborator limits may require upgrading - Free (10), Plus (100), Business (250) guests can be restrictive for agencies or client-facing teams

7

Export limitations on Free/Plus plans may require upgrade when you need to migrate data or create backups
