Why Teams Move from Notion to monday.com
Notion is a great place to write. Teams usually look at monday.com when their project tracking has outgrown databases: when they want workload views, dashboards across projects and automations that move work along.
Our Notion vs monday.com comparison goes through the differences.

How the Migration Runs
- 01
Free assessment
Duration: Free
We look at your Notion databases and pages, item counts, files and automations, and send a fixed quote with the list of what moves, what we rebuild and what cannot move.
- 02
Data map
Duration: Before any data moves
Each part of Notion becomes a monday.com board, group, item or column of the right type. You sign off the map, including what to leave behind.
- 03
Test migration
Duration: On a sample first
We move a sample with its comments and files, and you check it in monday.com.
- 04
Full migration and rebuild
Duration: Dates fixed in your quote
We move everything in scope, link the items, and rebuild your automations, views and forms in monday.com.
- 05
Checks and handover
Duration: Before you switch off Notion
We compare item counts board by board, walk your team through the new boards, and hand the export files over to you.
When Notion Is Still the Right Call
Moving is not always the answer. Stay on Notion, or plan the move carefully, if:
- Notion is mainly your wiki and knowledge base, with little project tracking. monday.com workdocs can hold documents, but a wiki that works is not a reason to move.
- You have a few small databases and pages with no comments or files you need to keep. A spreadsheet import is enough.
Doing it yourself, compared
The options monday.com gives you, set against a full migration. Each fact comes from the sources below.
| Spreadsheet import (CSV or Excel) | TaskRhino migration | |
|---|---|---|
| Databases | One CSV per database, as Number, Status, Email, Date or Text into a new board | Every property as the matching column type |
| Page content and files | Not imported | Page content in workdocs, files in a Files column |
| Relations | Arrive as text | Connect boards columns |
| Views, forms and formulas | Not moved | Rebuilt in monday.com |
The assessment tells you which of these apply before you commit.
Plans in other tools too? We also move MS Project data into monday.com and migrate from Jira to monday.com. See all our monday.com data migration services.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I move Notion to monday.com myself?
monday.com has no built-in Notion import. A Notion database exported as CSV can be imported as a spreadsheet, but page content, files and relations do not come with it.
Do comments and attachments move?
Notion's workspace export includes the files you uploaded, and its HTML export can include page and block comments. We put files in a Files column and comments in the item's updates.
What happens to our automations, views and forms?
No export carries them. We list each one in the assessment and rebuild the ones you still need as monday.com automations, views, forms and dashboards.
What cannot be moved?
Page version history: An import can't write monday.com's activity log; it starts on the day of the move. Everything else in the table above either moves or is rebuilt in monday.com.
How long does it take?
It depends on how many databases and pages and items you have, how many files, and how much needs rebuilding. The dates are fixed in your quote after the free assessment.
How much does it cost?
It depends on your databases and pages, item counts, files and automations. The assessment is free and ends with a fixed quote.
