Microsoft Edge stands up against other browsers, depending on the needs of your organization. It's fast and dependable, with a user friendly interface. Many of our legacy systems rely on old functionality that is utilized in the IE Mode. We also like that because we use other Microsoft Office products, we can open and edit those directly within Microsoft Edge. But many extensions we'd be interested in aren't available for this particular browser.

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. :(

Cons
  • Sometimes, some functions don't seem to work while browsing Incognito.
  • I'm not sure if this is an Edge issue, but if you set up the Passwordless Experience in Windows and don't have Windows Hello configured, when you attempt to view a password, it displays a prompt that doesn't work.

  • 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.

I actually use all three products for different tasks. I find it helpful to use different products so that I am familiar with them. This allows me to assist coworkers who use different products. I am familiar enough with each similar product that I can help other employees troubleshoot difficulties.

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.

Return on Investment
  • It is good to have an alternative to Google...different results...which means more choices and information than from one source.
  • Sometimes Microsoft Edge information results is not as robust as Google so we need to use Google too.
  • The integration with Microsoft products is really nice...since we are a Microsoft shop.
