| Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.3 AdBlocker Ultimate offers a wide range of features that effectively block ads on websites, YouTube and social media platforms. Ad Blocking:  The settings can also be used to remove only country-specific advertising and a whitelist can be added. Privacy Filter  Security: The listed filters can all be switched on and off separately and individually. Winner in this category | 8.5 Evernote Web Clipper offers a large number of functions that make it easier to save and organize web content. These include simple bookmarking, but also other functions such as the ability to add highlights and comments to screenshots, which we find particularly useful.  A very important main function for us is also to set tags and easily find saved data, photos, or similar using tags. Titles can also be added here to display them clearly in your notebook.  |
| Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 During our test, AdBlocker Ultimate did not experience any performance issues. Ad blocking worked flawlessly on all platforms tested, so there were no disruptions to websites caused by advertising. Winner in this category | 7.0 Performance is a major drawback of Evernote Web Clipper. Many users report issues in reviews about the tool not loading or not working properly. Although it offers many features, these performance issues can be annoying and limit overall effectiveness. In our tests, only a few minor performance issues were detected. |
| Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 The user interface is clearly laid out and should be easy to use for every user. The settings page is also very clearly laid out. Only the constant reference in the extension pop-up to the paid Windows desktop version detracts somewhat from the design. Winner in this category | 7.0 The design is functional, but not particularly intuitive. Although the interface is clear, navigating the settings and functions is somewhat confusing. Improvements in the design of the user interface could improve the accessibility of the tool for a larger target group. |
| Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The Web Extension is free of charge. Compared to other free providers, it offers a very high number of functions and options for customizable functions. We would therefore rate the price-performance ratio as very good. Winner in this category | 7.5 The extension itself is free, but it is only really useful when the paid version of Evernote is activated. Considering that you have to think your way in to set everything up and use it, the price-performance ratio might be a bit expensive for basic users. |
| Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 AdBlocker Ultimate is easy to install and can be used immediately afterwards. Even beginners should find the extra functions easy to use, as they are described in detail. Great importance has been attached to the individual settings for each user. Winner in this category | 6.5 The tool has a slightly larger learning curve, especially for new users. Numerous shortcuts can be defined for easy clipping, but it can take a long time from initial setup to full use. In addition, many users have reported problems with logging in and loading the tool. |
| Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 8.2 The tool offers the function of extra privacy protection by preventing tracking and thus increasing online security. Winner in this category | 8.0 Evernote Web Clipper handles user data responsibly and has clear data protection guidelines. However, the tool does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals, which could be problematic for some users who value this. The data is stored on US servers, meaning data protection law applies there. |
| Conclusion A summary of our findings and final thoughts for each extension. | AdBlocker Ultimate is a great extension for blocking ads. Ads on various platforms are removed without the user noticing. Particularly noteworthy are the various options for customizing the settings. The user can control whether the extensions should only be responsible for blocking ads or whether they should also offer support in the areas of data protection and security.
