Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.8 Text Blaze stands out because its features are unmatched by other tools. It excels at what it’s designed to do: generating text from shortcuts. The possibilities for creating your text snippets are practically limitless. You can:
Winner in this category | 9.3 PresentBoard is characterized by its extensive range of functions and offers a variety of widgets to different requirements. ![]() The iCalendar and Google Calendar integration worked perfectly in the test so that you can always keep track of your appointments immediately when you open a new tab. It is also worth taking a look at future updates, where PresentBoard has created a list of additional functions that users can vote on themselves to prioritize for future development. In our opinion, a decisive function that competitors have already partially integrated is the integration of ChatGPT directly as a widget in the dashboard. ![]() |
Performance Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Performance' aspect of each extension. | 9.7 Text Blaze performs exceptionally well. There is no need to save, so that updating your shortcuts is straightforward. The snippets load quickly, and the AutoPilot feature works seamlessly. Winner in this category | 8.0 PresentBoard works reliably once it has been set up. Only when customizing the dashboard can minor problems occur. For example, occasionally clicking on the + symbol did not work, which is annoying when setting up. ![]() Occasional bugs reported by users in the reviews were actively fixed by the developers in regular updates. Overall, the extension delivers a good performance. |
Design Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Design' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The user interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy to navigate and organize snippets. Winner in this category | 9.0 When selecting the design of PresentBoard, importance was placed on both the visual and the functional. Users have almost no limits when it comes to customizing the dashboard. Whether different backgrounds of the dashboard, colors and backgrounds of the texts of widgets or ready-made templates. With a little time, everyone can find the right design. |
Value for Money Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Value for Money' aspect of each extension. | 9.5 The free version is quite powerful, and there was no need to upgrade for us when using it. The premium version offers good value for money, especially for teams. It's worth the investment as it will save you a lot of time. Winner in this category | 9.5 PresentBoard offers extensive features for being free. Many features are offered for a fee by competitors, the ones here are free, making it a valuable tool for users who want to increase their productivity at no cost. Only the lack of some functions such as a directly integrated AI model is still decisive here compared to competitors. This is usually offered for a fee, but if it were also offered free of charge here, users would have an unbeatable price-performance ratio. Winner in this category |
Ease of Use Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Ease of Use' aspect of each extension. | 8.5 Setting up and using Text Blaze is straightforward. The web interface is user-friendly, and the snippets are easy to create and manage. The only minor downside is the initial account creation process. Basic tasks like adding text fields are super simple, but some of the more advanced features might take a bit of time to master. That said, it's definitely worth the effort because they'll save you tons of time in the long run. Winner in this category | 8.3 There were no problems with the installation process of PresentBoard during the test. After installation, a new tab appears on which users are immediately shown the tutorial video and various sample templates. Great importance was attached to user-friendliness here. This also shows that you do not have to register to use the functions. You only need to log in if you want to save the self-created dashboard in the cloud to avoid losing it. ![]()
In summary, the extension is easy and intuitive to use with the help of the tutorial. However, anyone who wants to set up their dashboard without using the ready-made templates should be aware of the high initial time expenditure. |
Security & Privacy Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Security & Privacy' aspect of each extension. | 9.0 An account is required, but Text Blaze ensures that your data is secure and not sold or made public. The privacy policy is transparent and trustworthy. However, as with any online tool, it's essential to stay updated on their privacy policy. Winner in this category | 9.0 PresentBoard takes user privacy seriously and ensures that data is not sold to third parties. The data protection regulations are described transparently so that users who value data security are in the right place. The only negative aspect is a security warning from Google when setting up Google Analytics. The application should still be checked here, if you continue to click that you trust PresentBoard, this has no influence on the later use, but this does not inspire good confidence for the user. ![]() Winner in this category |
