Take a hands-on tour to experience the security, compatibility, and manageability of the new Microsoft Edge. Edge is based on Chromium and designed to be the best browser for business. Our host, Jeremy Chapman, shows you what sets it apart from other browsers.

QUICK LINKS:

00:23 - Security

06:23 - Compatibility

12:14 - Manageability

Security Edge helps protect your network and devices from malicious attacks and prevents unauthorized access and leaks of corporate data.

Microsoft Defender SmartScreen provides an early warning system.

Microsoft Defender Application Guard takes process isolation to another level.

Compatibility

Microsoft Edge is compatible with both the modern and legacy web.

Internet Explorer mode ensures you can use legacy functionality. Configure Enterprise Mode to determine how and where sites will be rendered.

Manageability

Consider your update management or servicing options for Microsoft Edge.

As an internal developer, or as a pilot user, test new releases and set channel priority.

Side-by-side installation is recommended for testing and validating capabilities early on while managing risk.
