| Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 6.0 The extension makes it easy to save web pages. This worked perfectly in our tests. All texts, including images, were saved correctly in a new page in Notion. However, some users report that various types such as mathematical formulas are not saved or are not saved correctly. When saving the page, you are asked where it should be saved in Notion. The immediate organization of the saved content with tags, as illustrated in the Chrome store, is not possible via the extension, but only in Notion. This also includes highlighting text passages.  An important component for us is the cross-device access, due to the direct saving in Notion, so you can read clipped pages on any device, online or offline. | 8.0 OneNote Web Clipper basic functions for saving web content. In addition, screenshots of the entire page or only parts of a page can be created. An important function of the Web Clipper is that a preview is created directly when clipping and can be edited directly, for example by rewriting or highlighting text before it is synchronized with OneNote.

All content could be saved and transferred to the OneNote notebooks without any problems.

| Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 7.0 The design is clear and concise. However, this is simply because there are hardly any customization options. | 8.5 The design is clear and simple, so even basic users can get started immediately without any problems.

| Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 8.0 Use of the extension is free of charge. However, compared to other providers of Web Clipper for Notion, it does not offer many functions. Whether a free version of Notion is sufficient for saving websites in the long term is another question. In our opinion, however, you get good value for money with the Plus version, which in particular allows you to save unlimited data. | 9.2 As the tool is free, it offers excellent value for money. You get basic functions for saving web content. The required OneNote can also be used with certain restrictions; a paid version of Office for $69.99 per year is also not overpriced. Winner in this category |
| Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 8.0 The installation worked perfectly. Saving pages is intuitive and further processing in Notion is also easy for Notion users. The fact that you can't set tags directly in the extension is a disadvantage. If you haven't used Notion before, you will need to find your way around the app first, as you will be overwhelmed with many functions, especially at the beginning. | 9.3 The tool is very user-friendly and has a low and fast learning curve. Most users should find it easy to start cutting and organizing content straight away. There are only a few functions that are not self-explanatory. Winner in this category |
