Comparison
Integram vs Notion
Notion is the best place for documents, wikis and light databases. Integram is for the moment your Notion database turns into an operational system with thousands of rows, strict roles and reports people rely on.
Side by side
| Aspect | Integram | Notion |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Flat monthly price per workspace, metered by actions. Free tier, Team $29/mo for up to 10 users, Business $99/mo for unlimited users. | Per member, per month; AI features on top on some plans. |
| Databases | Relational tables built for operational data and reporting. | Databases inside pages, with relations and rollups. |
| Access control | Roles control access to tables, columns and individual rows. | Page and database-level sharing; person-based access rules on databases in some plans. |
| Self-hosting | Yes. Docker container on your own servers, works offline. | No. Cloud only. |
| AI agents | MCP server for Claude and other MCP clients, plus a REST API that covers schema, roles and data. Agents act with the same permissions as a user. | Notion AI built in, a REST API and an MCP server. |
| Documents and wiki | Not a document editor. | Excellent. A core strength. |
| Spreadsheet import | Upload .xlsx; tables, data types and links between sheets are detected for you. | CSV import into a database. |

Choose Notion if
- Most of what you store is text: docs, notes, specs, wikis.
- Your databases are small and everyone may see everything.
Choose Integram if
- Different people must see different rows of the same table.
- Your reports are queries across several related tables.
- You want the operational data on your own server.
- You want an AI agent to manage the schema and access rules, not only to read pages.
Moving from Notion
Keep Notion for documents. Export the databases that run operations to CSV, upload them to Integram, and link to Integram screens from your Notion pages.
Frequently asked questions
Should we leave Notion entirely?
Usually not. Teams keep Notion for docs and move the operational databases, the ones with roles, volume and reports, into Integram.
