Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 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. ![]() Winner in this category | 7.5 The core function that One Sec uses to make users more productive is a pause before opening the website. When I open websites I have defined, such as Twitter, a gray page with a countdown appears. During this period, I was reminded that I didn't want to spend so much time on Twitter and asked myself whether this was intentional or just a reflex out of boredom.

Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 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.
