Microsoft Edge

Curious who's using MS Edge in Win 10 as a web browser and what issues to watch out for. I'm getting really snappy page loads over Chrome. So far so good, but not an IT guy either...

Started using it. Html5 only though, no plugins possible so lower Functionality but pure browser, seems to work well thus far.

It's very slow and is essentially a "beta" at this point. Kudos to Microsoft for attempting to move away from Internet Explorer with a fresh start. But I'll stick with Chrome for some time if not permanently.

IE is still there you just have to search for it, you can even make it the default browser if you want.

I have used it. It works OK but run into sites that it won't load all the content on.

So far no one has nailed the formula. Unfortunately IE is still the best all around as almost all websites work on it.

Firefox is good but I don't like how it manages contacts. The same for Chrome.

LogMeIn doesn't work on Chrome which is a dealbreaker for me. Also WHY can't chrome just have a normal bookmarks button? I don't like having to look at my top 5 bookmarks across the top all the time eating up screen space. Ugh.
