Safari is a very capable browser and seems to work well with websites that run modern frontend programming languages. It can load them fast and is also nice and slick, Apple also do a good job of keeping it updated.

I have found Microsoft Edge to be well suited for most work-related scenarios that occur during a typical workday. I am able to access benefit vendor websites and HCM resources. Shared files in Office 365 are accessible through Microsoft Edge. I view webinars in Microsoft Edge because it is relatively easy to group webinar handouts into tab groups.

I use Edge daily - all day. I typically have 2 Edges open on two different screens as well. While Edge and Chrome are both built on the Chromium platform, Edge completely beas out Chrome regarding security, usability, and functionality.

Alternatives Considered
Apple
Google Chrome is more of a standard for developers so we find input forms or process sites often won't work because they are not optimised for Safari. We have to switch. We found the next tier browsers like Firefox don't fit well to our ecosystem and don't even have them on our system.

Microsoft Edge is bundled with both of my laptops, but I have no reason to get rid of either. Opera, when I used it, was a bit clunky, and frankly a little bare-bones for my liking. Firefox is an equal for Microsoft Edge, but has an issue with stability on my personal laptop. After working around those issues for a couple of years, I wound up moving to Microsoft Edge, and have had no performance or connection issues since.
