Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 Raindrop.io offers an exceptional set of features that go far beyond basic bookmarking. The full-text search capability is particularly impressive, allowing users to find content within saved pages.

The team collaboration features are robust, and the permanent library feature ensures you never lose access to important content.

The ability to highlight, tag, and organize content directly ensures that you can easily find the content you need later. ![]() Another very useful feature is the screenshot function. Either the entire page or just a desired part is screenshotted and then a description is immediately added, which is saved directly in the desired page on Notion. ![]() The support for templates and batch saving may not be intuitive to set up at first, but it saves the user a lot of time when saving similar information. Winner in this category | 7.2 Save to Pocket offers a range of useful functions. ![]() The tagging system is particularly helpful for anyone who wants to organize and find their tags. This did not always work perfectly in the test. Sometimes websites were tagged, but these did not appear in the search with a unique search term. ![]() Compared to competitors such as Web-Highlights, the highlighting function is only possible after saving a website in the pocket and then searching there. It is not possible to highlight directly on the website. ![]() |

Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.3 Raindrop.io offers good value for money, particularly for users who need its advanced features.
