    Pros:
    I've used it for years. It's just the most friendly. It's free. It works well, has alot of add-ons. I use it to browse the web and it performs quickly and without issue. Never needed customer support. It's easy to use and learn.
    Cons:
    Sometimes it remembers the passwords and other times i'm not sure why it does not. Can't think of any complaints.

    Reasons for choosing Google Chrome

    It has all my things saved on it and that is super handy.

    Reasons for switching to Google Chrome

    chrome just works better and feels nicer to use.

    Google Chrome is my favorite browser, never disappointed me.

    5

    Overall, I have never been unhappy with Chrome. I switched many years ago from Mozilla and haven't gone back. From time to time, I will try other browsers but I always come back to Chrome. It has become second nature to use it and is my comfort browser.

    Pros:
    I use Google Chrome for everything. I love the user interface. It makes it easy to save groups of tabs and name them, as well as leaving many tabs open. I like that it will restore tabs in the event of unexpected shutdown. I like that there are numerous plugins and extensions to make it function with other products and for safety. I develop for the Chrome browser because I feel it is the most friendly for development and a good majority of worldwide users use it regularly, although I have not researched the usages.
    Cons:
    I really have little complaint. Like any software, once in a while you need to do an inconvenient update or restart the software because of the nature of file storage.

    Reasons for choosing Google Chrome

    It's just more used and I'm more comfortable with Google products over Apple products. Opera is just nice as a secondary browser and for development testing

    Reasons for switching to Google Chrome

    I don't even remember. I think I liked the interface better. I changed over a decade ago.

    A lot of people are migrating to different browsers. I now use a combination of Chrome, Brave and Opera browsers and don't see Chrome as my ride or die any more.

    Pros:
    Google still keeps most of my information easy to retrieve, so I do rely on that. However, there are other browsers that do so now.
    Cons:
    My search results are riddled with AI summaries. One of our ceramic digests analyzed results and 100% of answers were incorrect. You can turn off the AI results, but few people seem to know how and I spend time making sure to spread the information. Google also really doesn't want you to use an ad blocker. I understand their reasons, but I also understand my own. It can be very hard when you have people who are more vulnerable to being influenced to buy things when it comes at you constantly.

    Reasons for switching to Google Chrome

    Firefox has far too frequent updates, lags at launch and didn't offer anything I couldn't get from Chrome.

    Pros:
    I find that Google Chrome allows me to view more content online than any other internet browser. On other browsers, I find that there are websites I am required to access for work that either do not open at all, do not display all content, or will not function as intended.
    Cons:
    If I had to make a complaint about Google Chrome, it would be that they are not already the default browser on the majority of consumer products. At least not that I have found.

    Reasons for switching to Google Chrome

    I use other Google features, such as Gmail, Google Maps, etc. So having one internet browser that supports all of the Google features I use is more convenient to me.
