The infrastructure used for this research is described here and uses GO-EUC’s testing methodology which is posted here. A casual user probably won’t notice a difference in the rendering speed between today’s modern browsers. And all four browsers are much faster and leaner than those of a few years ago and become even more so with each new build. Each browser support decent security features that protect you against phishing schemes and malware.įurthermore, the tested browsers are compatible with web standards.
Each browser also offers a way to automatically open links and applications that are incompatible with legacy/third party, in an Internet Explorer window (aka Enterprise Mode).įrom a security standpoint. The four browsers we tested are enterprise manageable. For more information for each specific browser feature list and comparisons, please check out the web or vendor’s website.Ĭhoosing the right web browser can make a difference, whether the priority is faster performance or better security and if IT professionals conduct a web browser comparison for desktops, they’ll see that each browser brings something different.īecause web browsers are so integral to the end-user experience, it’s critical for IT professionals to understand what each browser offers in terms of management capabilities, security, performance, scalability and more. This research goal is to show performance impact differences in a VDI environment, therefor we won’t review and compare the browser features. But in a VDI environment the main task of a browser is to browse the web, play videos from the web and access (enterprise) web applications. Whether the use case is enterprise or consumer based, the web browser is a door to the information space we know as the internet, and they might have other uses as well. This research focuses on the performance and capacity impact of the top most used browsers in a VDI environment. But what is the impact in a VDI environment running one of the browsers? Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge have all improved significantly over the past years. Is it then worth changing a browser? A browser can make the internet easier, faster, safer and protect your privacy better. But what if the desktop is a virtual one? If you search for browser performance comparisons on the web, their main focus are usually the available features and performance from a physical dedicated machine.
