Which web browser is best for company use?

dbrown 1 year ago

Mozilla has announced that Firefox is designed for users, not corporations, so they’re not planning to hold back their browser version in order to satisfy company’s desires to have a stable, unchanging platform. This kind of makes sense, given that they’ve now embarked on a heady plan to upgrade their browser several times a year. With Microsoft already setting a date for dropping Internet Explorer 6, which browser & version is best to recommend as a corporate standard?

Tags: Firefox, Internet Explorer

We don't impose a standard on our users. That said, we stopped supporting IE6 awhile ago.
