## Reviews

### "Microsoft Edge the only software compatible with all websites\!" — 5.0/5

> **Denis** | *16 January 2025* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, good functionalities within the browser, compatible with all websites. Hassle free and free\!
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing as it's really the only software who does not have compatibility issues with any website\!
> 
> Excellent. Very happy especially with the websites compatibility side of things\!

-----

### "Edge Review" — 5.0/5

> **Tair** | *20 July 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very convenient browser which has very good integration with broader Microsoft products
> 
> **Cons**: Not really much cons while using the browser
> 
> Overall easy to use and very good integration with specific products

-----

### "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.

### "Microsoft Edge: A Tool for PDF Assignments" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *14 December 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use many PDF files in my AP history courses, and I needed a way for students to type on the PDFs.  Microsoft Edge has a textbox feature that allows students to do so.
> 
> **Cons**: Unlike other products in the Microsoft suite, there is no auto-save feature.  Oftentimes, students will submit an incomplete assignment because they forgot to hit the save button one last time.
> 
> I love using Microsoft Edge\!  It is easy for my students to download PDFs from the LMS and then resubmit them after they've completed the work using Microsoft Edge.

### "Not very good for a Browser\!" — 3.0/5

> **Parker** | *24 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Microsoft Edge works like most other web browsers.  One of the only pros that comes to mind is that it is already installed on Windows-based computers/laptops.
> 
> **Cons**: Where to begin.  Microsoft Edge is probably the worst browser I have come across.  I have tried out many different ones, and this sits near the top of the worst of them all.  The biggest con for me is that it uses Bing for its search engine, which, if you have ever used it, you will know why it's a con.  Everything seems to be slowing, and all the browser extensions tend not to work or won't load.
> 
> My overall experience with Microsoft Edge has been poor.  Every time I get a new windows pc, I uninstall it or switch the default browser.
