At work I use Chrome mainly, IE occasionally for bits and pieces. At home I use Safari as my main browser on Mac but do have Chrome installed in case I save a favorite in Chrome that i want to read at home.

I did try using IE at work, but got tired of it's sluggishness.

 

*SNIP*

 

At school they have IE but I had to bow to public demand and allow Chrome as apparently "it's sooooo much faster". Can't say I noticed that, and suspect that a lot of the speed teachers report is due to caching of searches and personal data to predict behaviour.

 

Seems legit :p

 

I seem to yo-yo between Firefox and Chrome - at the moment favouring Chrome. Both can be massive resource hogs, Firefox appears to suffer from a memory leak bug when using OWA (good job I don't have to use that too often!). Also have persistent issues with Firefox not rendering properly if the screen has been unlocked in Windows 8.1, have to close and re-open it for it to work correctly again.

 

From a developer's POV, Chrome is by far the easiest platform to develop for (Safari is pretty simple too, but has some irritating limitations), so I use it a lot when I'm developing anything, gets me off the ground quickly then I can go and deal with whatever hoops FF/Safari want me to jump through. IE add-on development is beyond a joke - it's no wonder hardly anyone bothers!

Badly explained on my part! I don't find IE or Chrome that "fast" and my heavy use of FF add-ons to improve my browsing experience means that I can't get as much done as quickly. It's possible equivalent Chrome extensions exist, but I haven't got the time to find them.

 

I had a similar problem with FF and W10, but recent updates seem to have fixed that.

I use IE, I see no problem with it ;) (no really!)

 

Google Chrome is deployed for those who want to use it at work.

 

I didn't vote because again I multi choice.

 

Use IE as preferred one but I do sometimes use FireFox/Chrome, I rarely have any issues on IE.
