I've the dev behind Relay [0] (real-time collaboration for teams using Obsidian), and we work with a lot of teams who have switched over to using Obsidian for work. We just hit 10,000 users yesterday.

You don't need a lot of the plugins to be productive in Obsidian, but I think a superpower people are overlooking is that you can build your own plugins for company specific features/workflows quite cheaply.

Combine that with having everything local, and you can use tools like claude code to actually make use of the knowledge/context that you're creating.

I find it crazy that people are pushing data into locked-in systems like Notion only to be limited by their weak-sauce AI tools.

In contrast, we are all in on file-over-app -- keeping the files locally on your computer so you can actually use them. Many of our customers run their Relay Server on-prem for total document privacy.
