Review Summary
Distill Web Monitor is praised as a free, easy-to-use extension that effectively monitors website changes and sends timely email alerts. Users appreciate its discrete operation and multi-site monitoring capabilities. However, multiple reviews note occasional crashes, lack of audible alerts, and some usability issues such as tabs remaining open after monitoring. The free version has limitations in real-time responsiveness, and advanced features require payment. Overall, it is valued for basic monitoring needs despite some bugs and feature restrictions.
