About Microsoft Edge

For browsing protection, Microsoft Edge automatically blocks trackers in order to help users protect privacy and data online. Built-in learning and accessibility tools allow users to be more productive and browse content more efficiently.

Microsoft Edge is available on all supported versions of Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.

I have had nothing but the best experience with Microsoft Edge overall. The browser provides a seamless surfing experience and is quick and easy to use.

Pros

Microsoft Edge provides a seamless browsing experience with its sleek and modern design, greater privacy protections, and increased speed.

Cons

When compared to other browsers, Microsoft Edge's limited extension support is one feature that I found least appealing. Although it has become better over time, users who primarily rely on browser extensions for their workflow may find it disadvantageous as there are still fewer options accessible.

Overall good web browser

Reviewed on 2024/10/25

Pros

I like the amount of control you have with intune and group policy. It’s typically quick. It syncs data to even mobile devices.

Cons

I don’t like the autofill suggestions always being there. Can’t figure out how to get rid of specific things like when there are typos or something I don’t want saved. This could be a security concern because passwords could be displayed unintentionally if a password was accidentally entered into a wrong field and cached.

Edge supports all the websites without any issues and also allows to select from multiple themes like dark or light theme offering more customisation to the user interface

Pros

I have set it up as my default browser. Edge saves history of closed tabs even if you close it all by mistake it can all be opened in 1 click. The vertical tabs options helps to keep the tabs organised more organised and easily accessible

Cons

Its a great browser no issues faced till date
