> The number of support calls goes up dramatically if you need users to use different browsers, and it causes usability headaches when linking from one system to another, because you can only have one default browser.
Which is precisely why Chromium-based Edge has an IE Mode that uses Trident for given sites so that those legacy systems can be filtered to use a different browser engine from within the same browser UX.
- kube-system 7y agoGood to know -- I personally haven't dealt with this issue in the past few months (or years), but hopefully this will give some organizations a path forward. Between ~2010 and the January release of Edge this year, a lot of organizations were dealing with the scenario I outlined. Although as recently as this month, I've run into scenarios where Chromium-based Edge acts a bit differently than Chrome... so it's not a solid solution in all cases.
