Such a great tool for both personal and professional research! I used to have a million emails in my inbox with links I had found and needed to look at again later. Now I can use Search Assist to easily organize links by topic as I search. I love the handy note-taking function and the ability to edit my search record. Now I can't image doing research without it!

Very useful extension and amazing customer service!

Such a great tool! The perfect in-between of browser history and a more in depth note taking. I really like the ability to switch between continuous recording and manual recording. The tool can either record every page you visit or only pages you tell it to (eg the pages you find most helpful). So often I remember finding a great page, but can't find it in my browser history. Never again!
