    Great satisfaction when searching and accessing specific sites.

    Date: Jun 10 2022

    Summary: My overall experience with this provider has been really great. When I started using it and installed it for the first time on my computer, I had various concerns because it asked me to configure my Microsoft account with the browser, in order to have a synchronization of information, however, this confusion was resolved by the great help from the Microsoft support team, they helped me to start using this browser and adapt to all its actions. It is important to highlight that this browser has had a positive experience within the various areas of my company, all our employees are satisfied with the results obtained so far, and it is also important to highlight that searching for new web pages and accessing The same has improved with the help of this browser, its arrival in our company has totally changed our way of accessing various websites. It is also important to note that this browser is available for all types of devices, such as Microsoft, Marcos, iOS and many other operating systems. I am grateful for the expected results that this has provided within my corporate sector, all my colleagues have been able to carry out a specific search without any problem within the company's computers thanks to this browser.

    Positive: Microsoft Edge is an excellent browser to browse the Internet and access any website without any restrictions. One of the positive points that need to be mentioned about this great browser is that the speed with which it runs and works in general has improved over time, previously this was considered one of the slowest browsers on the market. , over time I have liked it even more, since it has focused on improving the general interface and making fluidity always present within the user's navigation. I love the agility with which I can open multiple tabs. I also love how smoothly I can launch the browser for the first time, since previously it took a long time to start. Another of the main things that I like about this browser is that when I start it, I have access to a large amount of news, I can also see the weather from the main page of the browser, I can see news of the day or past news, I also have access to market statistics in general, I can obtain all this information without having to access a specific website, simply by accessing the browser, it will immediately provide me with access to all the latest news. Finally, it is worth mentioning that I loved the way this browser allows me to add bookmark buttons, it also provides me with suggested buttons at the start of the browser, since when I open it, it immediately reflects buttons such as Office, Disney, Facebook and Twitter, having access to these buttons helps me get to websites much more instantly. I love the general interface that this browser has, I feel very comfortable using it, since I can access various websites, social networks and much more.

    Negative: One of the main negative things that I have noticed during my experience with this browser is that there is no way to sync tabs between devices, for example, I can have several tabs open from my mobile device, but in no way will I be able to sync and open them within the computer instantly, I can only do it manually, opening each one separately. It is necessary that within this emperor there can be a synchronization of devices, so I can transfer the tabs that I am using on my mobile device to my computer without any problem. Another of the things that must be improved within this emperor is that the extensions store is quite limited, currently, the store that offers me to download extensions and does not have as much variety with respect to programs, it would be excellent if extensions available from the Google store, as it is currently not possible and this would help users to have access to a lot of additional extensions. These are the only two negative factors that I perceived during my experience, I hope I can solve it as soon as possible to achieve a much more complete experience within my company.

    Date: Mar 25 2022

    Summary: When I need to access a social network, Edge is there to give me immediate access, also when I need to access one of the software that we use in our company, and I need to use it in its web version, Edge is there to give me immediate access. I am very happy with this browser, it far surpasses browsers like Chrome or Mozilla, it offers a much more innovative, professional design and best of all, it connects immediately with your Microsoft account, so it is easy to export and import information to or from your Microsoft account. My general experience has been relatively good, without any type of complaint and with unlimited access to all types of web pages, without any blocking.

    Positive: One of the main things that caught my attention in a positive way about Microsoft Edge is that it is a service that already comes pre-installed in my Windows 11 operating software, it is amazing how I have immediate access to a stable browser just by having a updated operating system. In addition, another of the things that I like about Edge is that when I open a new tab, it gives me recommendations in the form of buttons where there are pages that are widely viewed, such as Office, Twitter and many more things, it is also important to highlight that below from this it shows me a news section of all kinds and updated to the current date, this news section is fully editable and I can modify it with news of my interest. On the other hand, I love the way that from the configuration button it gives me access to all the functions, from the configuration section I can manage the history, modify the design, use another appearance in the browser, configure the language and many others. more things.

    Negative: I really do not have any negative factors that need to be mentioned about Edge, it is a fairly complete browser that offers features that innovate web browsing both in its mobile version and in its version for computers. It's my primary browser, I'm happy to have it installed on my operating system.

    Microsoft Edge is a great browser

    Date: Oct 01 2021

    Summary: Browsing, downloading, watching YouTube and all are the errands done by me utilizing Microsoft Edge. Microsoft Edge has been set as my default program for simple access and rapid perusing and downloading.even the web download chief programming itself isn't utilized for quick downloads, because Microsoft Edge itself has a fast downloading stage.

    Positive: The manner in which the Microsoft has changed its default program is most certainly calculable. Edge no longer feels obsolete. Synchronization across cell phones is a pleasant touch. Its memory utilization is exceptionally less when contrasted with Chrome. I use Edge even to open pdfs.

    Negative: It is not Google Chrome. It doesn't have the simple client capacity that different programs give.

    Browsing memory.

    Date: Oct 01 2021

    Summary: I think it works pretty well. I haven’t had any reason to install any other browser as of yet. I think it was an improvement over the first iteration of Edge, because there were some compatibility issues that lingered, and the information security team at my previous job would simply just not sign off on it as “secure”. I think that might have been because the web development team did not really want to code for that rendering engine, but I would only be speculating if that was the case. I use the Chromium based Edge both on my windows pc and on my Macbook, and I really have not run into any issues with it just far.

    Positive: I’ve never been a fan of the way any Chromium based browser renders webpages, so by extension, i’m not a fan of the new Edge browser. The effort made to distinguish it from, well, chrome has been disappointingly minimal; it is, by appearance, chrome with a different logo and extra addons. A byproduct of the unfortunate, almost defeatist, direction the company has chosen to take I am writing this answer based on my personal experience of using Edge and I found Edge performs faster than chrome in terms of less memory occupancy. Moreover Edge is crashing very frequently when I am using it and Microsoft has a long way to go.

    Negative: But Chrome is still better due to its simple design and user friendliness, of course slows down your system like never before.

    Positive: This browser is so intuitive and fast. As a gamer I am able to switch between tabs and sites with ease to look at maps, locations, and spawns.

    Putting up a good fight!

    Date: Jun 09 2021

    Summary: Microsoft is putting up a good fight for providing a top web browser. By building upon the open source chrome browser code, MS effectively is replacing their problem child internet explorer with a capable alternative to Chrome and Firefox. However, with their own extension store and other Microsoft integrations, there is the chance to be tied to the Microsoft framework.

    Positive: -competitive speed
    -supports chrome extensions
    -good level of customization
    -replaces internet explorer and integrates well in windows 10

    Negative: -edge extensions vs. chrome extension can be confusing
    -not available on linux
    -integration with Microsoft services creates light dependency
