Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 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. ![]() | 9.0 AdBlock Max offers comprehensive functions for blocking advertising, including pop-ups, banners, and video ads.

Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 8.3 Basically, the extension runs smoothly without any performance problems. Page load times are shortened by blocking advertising. Winner in this category |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 8.8 The user interface is clear and intuitive. In particular, the filter customization options are very clearly displayed in the extension pop-up. Winner in this category |
Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 9.0 If you take a closer look at the extension in addition to the basic functions, you will see how many additional functions are available. As a free web extension, the price/performance ratio is very good. Winner in this category |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 8.0 The tool is uncomplicated and easy to install. Due to the well-designed method of a slider for the strength of the filter mode, preferences are easy to configure for everyone. Winner in this category |
Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 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. | 8.5 AdBlock Max offers privacy protection through the additional function to prevent tracking. The extensions' data is protected by industry-standard measures. Winner in this category |
Conclusion A summary of our findings and final thoughts for each extension. | Evernote Web Clipper is a good tool for anyone who needs to save and organize web content. Its integration with Evernote makes it a powerful extension for productivity enthusiasts, especially if Evernote is already in use.
