In addition to saving an entire page, you can also save individual markers.

In addition, screenshots of the entire page or only parts of a page can be created.

The design is clear and simple, so even basic users can get started immediately without any problems. However, it could offer a few more customization options to suit individual preferences.

Value for Money
9.5

The free version of Save to Notion offers excellent value for money, and the premium plan, at $36 a year, offers additional features at a reasonable price for those needing advanced functionality. Especially compared to Notion's official extension “Notion Web Clipper” we tested, you get a lot of features here.
However, it must be borne in mind that you will quickly reach the limits of the free Notion version by saving website content and will need a paid plan.

9.2

This is simply due to the ease of saving highlights and screenshots in one click. Although users report occasional problems with logging in, these did not occur during our tests. In our opinion, the overall performance with the price-performance ratio is currently the best for Notion users.


Anyone not currently using Notion should first test Notion and check whether it is right for them, or check the paid packages, as the free limits are quickly reached here.

Overall, OneNote Web Clipper is a useful tool for anyone who simply needs to collect, store, and organize web content.
