| Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 Stands AdBlocker offers a wide range of features, for everyone. In addition to the basic blocking of all types of advertising, there are also features such as help with online security. In the settings, you can individually define whether only advertising or, for example, all tracking on websites and more should be blocked.  Another interesting function is the option to allow only a certain number of ads on websites. This is called fairness settings. So if you don't want to be flooded with ads, but still want to support the website, this is a good option.  Winner in this category | 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. |
| Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 The extension runs without any problems. No impairment of browser performance was detected during the test. Ad blocking worked without any problems on various websites during the test. The reviews mention problems with the whitelist, which we did not encounter. Winner in this category | 6.5 Overall, we found the program to be a basic web clipping app that is well suited for saving basic websites. |
| Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 8.0 The design is very simple and therefore intuitive to use. The pop-up displays relevant data, such as whether ads are blocked on the website. Overall, the design is designed to be user-friendly without overwhelming the user with information. Winner in this category | 7.0 The design is clear and concise. However, this is simply because there are hardly any customization options. |
| Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 Stands AdBlocker is free of charge. For this, the extension offers excellent value for money. Users get comprehensive ad blocking features, with individual options to customize these for themselves too. Winner in this category | 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. |
| Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 Stands AdBlocker is very easy to set up. Once installed, the basic user doesn't have to do anything else and can start surfing straight away. For the other features, anyone who invests a minute should be able to learn the remaining settings, as these have also been presented very simply to make it possible for everyone to use them. Winner in this category | 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. |
| Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 7.5 While Stand's AdBlocker increases online security by blocking malicious ads and phishing threats, the data collection that Stand's AdBlocker performs could be a problem for users who place a high value on privacy. | 8.2 Notion takes standard measures to protect user data. It also complies with the most important data protection regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. Winner in this category |
| Conclusion A summary of our findings and final thoughts for each extension. | Stands AdBlocker is a very powerful tool for anyone who wants a free way to surf the Internet without constant ads. We can confirm the high ratings in the Web Store. In particular, the simple design and user-friendliness are a major positive point. | In summary, the Notion Web Clipper is a useful tool for saving and organizing web content directly in your Notion workspace. However, there are some limitations, such as not being able to mark things up or set tags directly from the extension. This is done afterwards in Notion. There are also occasional problems with saving certain types of content such as mathematical formulas. Despite these drawbacks, it can be a valuable addition to your productivity toolkit, especially if you're already a Notion user. |
