User reviews

Users praise CopyTables for its ease of use, extensive output options, and being an indispensable tool for working with online tables. It surpasses similar add-ons in features and provides smooth, reliable operation. A common limitation is its inability to extract values from visible input boxes in table cells, and sometimes it defaults to copying entire tables as plain text, which reduces its usefulness in some scenarios.

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive interface.
Provides many output options for copying tables.
Highly useful and indispensable for working with online tables and databases.
Offers more features than similar extensions like Table2Clipboard2.
Works smoothly and reliably in daily use.

Cons

Cannot extract values from visible input boxes within table cells (limitation).
In some cases, copies the whole table only as text, similar to default Firefox behavior, limiting flexibility.

Recent reviews

Selects rows and columns as expected, but copies only the whole table and only as text (default Firefox behavior). Unfortunately, useless. Linux Mint 21.3 Firefox 137.0

Works well and has plenty of output options. Is it possible to extract the value from a visible input box in the cells? Would give it 5 stars if it could do that.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

CopyTables requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

CopyTables has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
