Considered Both Products
Google Chrome
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 …
Mozilla Firefox
Chose Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox is faster, more efficient, and has less "bloatware" than Microsoft Edge, which is a frustrating and inefficient browser. It is a much smoother and more pleasant browsing experience.

Chose Mozilla Firefox
When I decided on Firefox, it was well beyond the other browsers. Today, the competition is catching up but Firefox still seems to be a bit more innovative.
Chose Mozilla Firefox
Firefox is faster and a lot more user friendly. It feels safer, and more up to date. The extensions and updates are easier to handle. The custom looks and options put it far ahead. Ad blocking and safety also seem to be better. I don't feel as good about safe searching on chrome.
Chose Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox stacks up very well alongside similar products. There has not been a feature I have needed that a similar product had that was lacking from Mozilla Firefox. The product has been developed very well and updates have been effective at maintaining security. I have …
Chose Mozilla Firefox
All browsers used are very similar and all offer quite great features to help developers build websites.
In our case we use a list of browsers in order to do cross browser testing to make sure our sites work well on all browsers.
Mozilla Firefox is fast, intuitive and helps us …
Chose Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox defeats all common web browsers for Windows and Linux environments in terms of accessibility features, customization, and debugging. Mozilla Firefox uses a different Javascript engine than Chrome, Brave, and Edge (which are all shared using Google's V8 engine) …
Chose Mozilla Firefox
I will always pick Mozilla Firefox as my first choice because of the user friendly look and because of the reduction in ads that you see. My second choice would be Chrome because it is the preferred browser in many organizations but if given the chance I will always go to …
Chose Mozilla Firefox
Firefox stands toe to toe with any other web browser on the market. From comparable features and capabilities, there's nothing that my team can't do with Mozilla that we can do with any other leading product. Developer tools, speed, reliability, customization options, add-ins, …

It's the primary browser of choice for internet browsing and general internet exploration. It's not ideal for programming. I've had several scenarios where I've had to program browser behaviour and I found Edge to be more programmable - of course it stems from the fact that Edge is made by the same company that makes the OS for the devices where I've programmed. But for compatibility across multiple devices, consistency across sessions and user activity, and integration with other Google products - Chrome is unmatched.

Firefox is ideal for users who are tech-proficient and eager to customize their browsing experience to meet exactly their needs. It is best for people who are very contemplative and thoughtful about their experience of using web browsers and want more than an out-of-the-box or clunky experience offered by pre-loaded browsers.

Cons
Google
  • Not about Chrome per se, but Google search is fast losing relevance and Gemini AI results are useless more than half the time. If search and information gathering moves to other paltforms, then eventually the reasons I open Chrome will reduce

  • I miss Adobe Flash. It was foundational to so much content
  • An internal Malware cleaning feature
  • A better on board ad blocker

Usability

Ease of use and functionality is unmatched. Some of the functionality reduces on a Macbook, for example, when I can't use the windows shortcut Alt + Tab to switch between windows. I use multiple profiles on Chrome - a personal and a work profile, and Windows makes it very easy to switch between the two. Still, I've been a user for 10+ years, and I see nothing that matches the functionality, integrations across apps and devices, ease of use and the deeply entrenched habits.

It can do anything I throw at it. It does not slow down. I cannot remember it ever crashing. Updating is super easy. It's colorful enough to find what I need visually. I can customize the look to make it super usable and fast with muscle memory precision. It's by far easier to use than any other browser.

Firefox has a clunky update mechanism. Although Firefox was pretty quick, I did not care for the look of it. Opera was not as compatible nor as fast as Google Chrome. Tor is slow but is used only for private browsing as needed.
