    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.

    If you are a professional agency that requires access to a ton of Saas applications like email, accounting, CRM, websites, etc, then this browser (Sidekick) application is the ticket for you. If you like a ton of features for free, this is not for you. I feel It is breaking my bank account. :(

    • 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.

    • Group applications on the left side of the part (like categories on the bar)
    • Make it hard to close a tab when on a session (warn with a "did you mean to do that?")
    • Be able to save the session while live.
    • Protect all tabs within a saved session without making them little tabs.

    Usability

    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.

    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.

    When comparing these two, Sidekick was way easier to use and configure. I got confused immediately when trying to set up workspaces in VIVALDI. Sidekick reminded me of ClickUp and was set up within the hour.
