Free tier
Pin Toolbox's free plan is the first 15 pins of a board. After that you pay. Call it a demo.
Unpinned's free plan is 50 pins a day, no card, no board count. A 40-pin board is free today. A 200-pin board is four free days, or one Pro sitting.
If you want to try a tool on a real board before paying, 50 a day is enough for a real test. The 15-pin trial is over before you have seen much of the tool.
Where Pin Toolbox is the better choice
Printing is where Pin Toolbox wins. It prints a board directly from the extension. Unpinned exports the board as a PDF on Pro, A4 or Letter with 1 to 9 pins per page, and you print that file. Pinterest board to PDF shows the steps.
Install count goes to Pin Toolbox as well. Forty thousand users and 290 ratings is a real sample. We need a few more ratings before ours counts. The store average is 2.8 stars. Pin Toolbox's homepage quotes a 5-star average from Pro users, and the store figure includes everyone who tried the demo. An earlier version of this page said 3.7, which was wrong.
Where Unpinned is the better choice
€14.99 a month is more than double Unpinned Pro, both in Europe and against the US price of $7. Both lift a cap on downloading boards. Both export PDF. Pin Toolbox's extra money is for printing from the extension.
Pin Toolbox is Chrome only. Unpinned has a Firefox listing and an Edge listing.
Most personal moodboarding never hits 50 pins in a day. Pin Toolbox wants a card before a normal board is done.
A sorted board stays sorted in Unpinned's ZIP, one folder per section. Pin Toolbox lets you pick sections, and its listing does not say whether they land as folders.
On permissions, Pin Toolbox asks to read every website, plus cookies and tabs. Unpinned asks for Pinterest, its image and video servers, and our own servers. The roundup lists both in full.
The Pinterest board downloader is the product page. The comparison page is Unpinned versus paste-a-link sites, which neither of these is. Unpinned vs Pin Kit, Unpinned vs Pinpasta and Unpinned vs PinSuite cover the rest of the extensions. All eleven tools sit in the best Pinterest board downloader roundup.
