Archbee vs. Notion: What's right for me?

Compared with Notion, Archbee is cheaper, and it is built for developers to make their lives easier. On the other hand, Notion is a tries to be an all in one app, for any department in a organization.

Having a custom domain on Notion will require a third-party tool like super or hostnotion, while Archbee has hosted collection built-in. It takes 5 minutes to build a website with Archbee, customize it, and brand it.

Since Archbee is built for software and software and product teams, you can add multiple products or even product versions to your docs site.

Also, if you work with APIs, Archbee has integrations with Swagger and GraphQL, making it easy to build developer & API docs.

How to choose between Archbee vs. Notion

In this post, we looked at Archbee vs. Gitbook vs. Readme vs. Confluence vs. Notion to determine which tool is the best for use cases as an internal wiki or developer documentation.

Each Archbee alternative has its core strengths and weaknesses. No tool will have all the features you need, so the best action is to look at what is a deal-breaker for your situation and look for those features when you pick a tool.

Archbee is a unified platform built for software engineers but where non-techies can work as well due to its easy-to-use interface and editing experience.

The cost will always be an essential factor, but the devil is in the details, and picking the cheapest one is not always the best move for your budget.

To conclude, it is recommended to test any of these tools with a Free Trial or Freemium account for testing the features, and if you need a tool to work out of the box for the internal wiki and as a documentation site, give Archbee a try. It has everything you need to get your team in one place.
