Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 7.0 Humble New Tab Page shines in its simplicity and customization options. You can easily rearrange bookmarks, apps, and other elements using its intuitive drag-and-drop feature. It’s not overloaded with unnecessary bells and whistles, which keeps it fast and efficient. However, compared to other tools, it lacks more advanced features like integrated to-do lists or news feeds. If you’re looking for a straightforward way to manage your new tab content, it’s hard to beat. But for power users, the simplicity might feel like a limitation. | 9.5 In our tests, Toggle Track was found to have a diverse set of features suitable for both individuals and teams.

Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 10 Performance is where Humble New Tab Page really excels. It’s incredibly lightweight, ensuring that your browser’s speed isn’t compromised. The extension loads quickly and doesn’t introduce any noticeable lag, even with multiple elements on the page. This efficiency makes it a great choice for users with older or less powerful computers. Winner in this category | 8.0 In our tests, Toggl Track worked reliably and without any major technical problems on various platforms. However, some users reported occasional synchronization problems when switching between devices in the reviews. |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 7.0 The design of Humble New Tab Page is, well, humble. It’s clear that the focus is on function over form. While it’s not going to win any awards for aesthetics, the design is clean, uncluttered, and gets the job done. For users who value a visually rich experience, this might be a drawback. The minimalist design is fully customizable, allowing you to change the font style, background colors, and overall layout. You can even set your own background image. Here's a screenshot showing how easy it is to adjust the tool's appearance: ![]() So, if you prefer a simple, distraction-free workspace, this tool might be the way to go. | 8.3 The design of Toggl Track with its basic functions is clear and intuitive. The dashboard is well organized and provides quick access to the most important functions. When users get to the advanced features, the design could be a little more self-explanatory.

Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 It’s hard to argue with the value provided by a free, open-source tool that does exactly what it promises. Humble New Tab Page delivers solid performance without any hidden costs or premium upgrades. It’s a fantastic option for users who want a customizable new tab experience without spending a dime. The only reason it doesn’t get a perfect score is that there are other free options with more features, albeit at the cost of simplicity and speed. Winner in this category | 8.0 Toggl Track offers a free plan with basic features. If you only want to track your time and only do this on your own, you get a good time-performance ratio here. |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 7.5 Setting up and using Humble New Tab Page is simple. There's no need to sign up, and it provides a lightweight bookmark manager right in your new tab. The options menu is easy to navigate, making it intuitive to customize things like fonts, colors, and spacing. That said, it might take a bit of time to discover that you can drag and drop everything around, and not everyone may realize that you can adjust columns by right-clicking. Once you figure this out, the drag-and-drop interface makes customization easy, even for those who aren’t tech-savvy. However, advanced features like injecting custom CSS may be more suited for developers. Overall, though, the experience is very user-friendly. Winner in this category | 7.0 The Installation and use of the basic functions are very intuitive. No user should have any problems tracking their times here. However, if users want to use the advanced functions, they will need to think a lot about it and take some time to understand everything. There is still room for improvement here so that every user can use them straight away. |
Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 10 Humble New Tab Page respects your privacy by not collecting or storing any user data, which is a significant plus in today’s digital age. As it is open-source you can always double-check. Winner in this category | 8.7 Toggl Track protects user data with standard encryption to protect information and offers options for two-factor authentication. The data protection guidelines are transparent so that everyone can read how their data is handled. The only point deduction is that it would be desirable to be able to control which data authorizations you want to assign yourself. This is also evident from user reviews. |
