No issues with searching for websites. Quick to display websites and provides a secure search. Can be used on phone and computer and can sync my data. > > **Cons**: The default search engine is normally Bing/ yahoo which would not be by top choice compared with google search. However this can be changed in default settings to your favoured search engine so it is not a big issue. > > Happy with my overall experience. Allows me to do my research online and conduct any downloads I require. ----- ### "MS Edge: The Browser for Professionals" — 5.0/5 > **Brett** | *9 April 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Edge is a phenomenal platform. The tab management on the software is easy to use, it has fair/minimal ram usage, extensions are easy to navigate and the overall learning curve isn't too steep. > > **Cons**: Honestly, I don't have much I don't like about Edge. One note is that it seems some online platforms often prefer a non-Edge browser if you are using their platform. That can be a bit annoying to switch back and forth. > > Overall, I am very impressed. Microsoft Edge is a core part of how I function well at work in my day to day. ----- ### "So Easy to Use for Everyday Browsing" — 5.0/5 > **Allison** | *10 October 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I truly love that Microsoft Edge is so easy to use, and it's simple to navigate on the web. You can have multiple tabs open at once, and it works excellently for my schoolwork. Customer support is top-notch, in my opinion, and I have not experienced any learning curve whatsoever\! > > **Cons**: I have to say that I have always had good experiences with Microsoft Edge. Sometimes it can use a lot of memory if you have several tabs open, and I do wish the settings were a little easier to find, but it's still my favorite software. > > I have used Microsoft Edge for years, mostly for college and office jobs. As I said, it's the easiest to use, and it always does what I need it to do. ----- ### "Simply Can't Compete" — 1.0/5 > **Percival** | *10 July 2025* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I do like that it offers basic customization, and that it has Bing built in as the default browser, making earning Microsoft Points easier and streamlined. The more modern UI is also appealing. > > **Cons**: It is Internet Explorer dressed up in a tuxedo; it has never and will never have the customization, ease of use, add-on's, security features or the low impact on my PC performance while doing other things that many other browsers are capable of. > > Not something I would recommend to anyone under the age of 45 - younger users will be unimpressed with the lack of versatility. This browser is fine for office work or basic tasks but this is not the application for gamers or streamers. My personal take-away from Edge was that it simply is not meant for me. ----- ### "Edge has lots of features but not sure about privacy" — 5.0/5 > **Nicholas** | *18 August 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Edge is better at smooth scrolling, vertical tabs, PDFs, text to speech, ram usage, support for streaming, secruity > > **Cons**: It can be bloated out of the box and privacy wise, not great, no idea what Microsoft collects for data ----- Page: 1 / 24\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1012106/microsoft-edge?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1012106/microsoft-edge) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
