It does exactly what it need to do > > Great experience with functionality and privacy ----- ### "I am heartbroken as I have been using Opera for many years..." — 1.0/5 > **Sasha Birgit** | *20 December 2023* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: So far I like the layout and the functions but they don't work anymore. :-( > > **Cons**: ...than the problem startet. First of all the new tab grouping function that I did not like. But what really made me leave opera that overnight the synchronisation of tabs did not work anymore. I reloaded manually twice. Checked my synchronisation in the browser which was activated. After a while I decide to leave. Such a shame in this world, that the few good things around are failing too. ----- ### "The browser to go for and effective net experience management" — 5.0/5 > **Tommaso** | *22 September 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: A robust, reliable and complete browser that does what you need. Workspaces and Tabs groups are the best invention in browsers after tabs. > > **Cons**: Synchronisation between desktop and mobile devices is ineffective > > A complete, fast, reliable, easy to use, and UI innovative browser. ----- ### "Longtime loyal Opera user" — 5.0/5 > **Viktor** | *08 February 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: My favourite feature is Speed Dial, it speeds up the work extremely - I don't have to remember the web pages URLs. Integrated by default VPN, AdBlocker are very useful. Account Synchronisation is also perfect, but SideBar with messaging apps and fast setting are the best of best features. > > **Cons**: There are few of them, but very rarely a web pages is displayed badly. Chat apps sometimes get stuck and need to refresh. > > I have been very satisfied with the Opera I have been using for many years. It ensures fast and safe surfing on the Internet. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2047008/opera?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2047008/opera) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
