Considered Both Products	Google Chrome Nisarg Sutaria Chief GTM - Go-To-Market and Strategy Officer & Manager - SEO & SMM Chose Google Chrome I repeat again: It is a worldwide standard. It matches both the Platforms - Windows and iOS. Pages load quickly, and the website's presentation is impeccable. It needs to seamlessly integrate Google Gemini into Google Chrome. Overall, I will give 10/10 to the designer of Google … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Google Chrome Only Firefox comes close. Google Chrome is leaps and bounds above anything Microsoft has ever done in the browser space. Microsoft has lagged behind with Edge for years and continues to supply a subpar browsing experience. Google Chrome has the speed and the features to make it … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Google Chrome I'd say Google Chrome and Safari are my favorite browsers. I mainly selected Chrome because it seemleasly saves all my information across different browsers (unlike Safari). Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Contributor Chose Google Chrome Firefox has a bulky and clunky design over Chrome. I didn't do a comparative test but it felt like Chrome was faster and I've never seen/ tested android compatibility from firefox. Safari seems to want to control my browsing activity as opposed to allowing me to control my … Incentivized Helpful?	Microsoft Edge Verified User Representative Chose Microsoft Edge I would use Microsoft Edge usually over Google Chrome. Chrome is useful because it helps keep continuity between the different devices you might be using for work.

Amanda Khan Client Coordinator / IT Recruiter Chose Microsoft Edge I would say that all 3 (Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge) compare well against each other.

Verified User Professional Chose Microsoft Edge I used to use Chrome exclusively, but once I started using Microsoft Edge, I noticed that they have some innovative features that Chrome didn't originally have to manage search results.

Likelihood to Recommend	Google Well-suited: It is a worldwide standard. It matches both the Platforms - Windows and iOS. Pages load quickly, and the website's presentation is impeccable. Less Appropriate: It needs to seamlessly integrate Google Gemini into Google Chrome. This task is not done at present. This is a must. Incentivized Nisarg Sutaria Chief GTM - Go-To-Market and Strategy Officer & Manager - SEO & SMM Read full review	Microsoft 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Cons	Google The administration side of Google Chrome has continued to improve but still needs more features. Memory utilization can continue to be tweaked. Incentivized JO Joe ONeill MISD Read full review	Microsoft Microsoft Edge could definitely work on it's development in regard to mobile compatibility. Microsoft Edge is unable to have cross-device access on Chromebooks OS. Microsoft Edge's extension availability falls very short compared to other browser's offerings.

Usability	Google I gave it an 8 out of 10 because it’s fast and reliable for daily work, but it’s also easy for it to get bloated over time. A lot of the customization features, like color themes and extras, feel unnecessary and add clutter without real value. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Google I'd say Google Chrome and Safari are my favorite browsers. I mainly selected Chrome because it seemleasly saves all my information across different browsers (unlike Safari). Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Microsoft 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.
