The new Microsoft Edge is a browser built for business. This Chromium-based browser offers many advantages over its predecessors and other browsers in the market today. So, is it the right choice for your organization?
Edge works seamlessly with Microsoft 365 management, security, and productivity tools. In addition, it's supported on macOS, iOS, Android, and soon Linux. Its sync capabilities allow you to have favorites, passwords, and custom settings across all your devices – at home and at work.
If your organization uses applications that rely on legacy browsers, Microsoft Edge can be configured in Enterprise Mode. Enterprise Mode can be used with modern and legacy websites. With Edge configured for Enterprise Mode, you can access legacy websites within the same browser instance. For example, with a site configured to open in the context of IE, Edge seamlessly transitions within the same browser instance without launching a separate IE window. This creates a more enhanced experience for users.
If you already have an Enterprise Mode site list that was built using v.2 schema, you can use the existing XML. If not, you can configure one.

So, if you are an organization holding back on using Microsoft’s new Edge browser due to legacy apps that require previous browser versions, hold back no longer! Enterprise Mode can be configured and provide your organization a more secure and seamless transition across all on-prem and remote devices!
