Great Browser with some issues
Comments: Opera is my favorite Web Browser, but I can't deny right now I am giving some steps toward the New Internet Explorer as it does have many of Opera features, and it is a little faster and better integrated with websites.
Pros:
Good looking interface. Free VPN (with some conditions) Pop-Up videos (a super useful feature to have) Units converter ( things such as currencies or metric units can be converted by hovering over the amount, and this is super useful )
Cons:
You can not export your personal data to any other browser. Things like passwords shall remain in Opera, and I guess this is how they push people to remain in the software somehow. The VPN does not allow you to choose a country right now as it used to be but a region, and it makes it kind of useless.
Opera, a browser that has evolved greatly over the years.
Comments: Opera is fluid, fast, but overall, it's a highly customizable browser, you can make it entirely personalized and access all our data on any other device with opera, it has left me with good taste because you can see the care and passion that the developer team and the community have to make it a browser with personality. My final comment is that I profoundly recommend opera to the user who wants to have a fully own space and has the latent need to have a unique browser.
Pros:
Opera is amazing because not only its a browser, managing this software is a whole experience, integrating particular functions such as a VPN, a coin converter, and others, the revolutionary sidebar is a feature that every browser should envy, permitting us to access our social media, bookmarks, and many other functions.
Cons:
Notwithstanding being a browser-based on chromium, Opera can be somewhat overpowering or overcharging for the user that just wants to search on the web without the need to customize so many appearances, Opera isn't for everyone, and this can be confirmed by recognizing that this browser has more than one version, opening, even more, the gap between casual handling and customization experience that opera offers us.
Excellent Web Browser
Comments: It's been very pleasant and very user friendly. Also very easy to install.
Pros:
I believe it is always in incognito mode or you can put it in that mode to keep safe from Hackers. I love all the special features it has to offer more so than any other browser out there. For example if you are watching a video you can go to your next tab and it will pip so you can still watch the video while at the other tab. I just recently came across this one.
Cons:
Everything so far s great I don't really see anything negative to say about it.
Opera review
Pros:
Is nice when it comes to other things and is good with searching task
Cons:
It has flaws with ad blocking It will tell you you blocked the ads then later on the ads are back
Simple browser
Comments: Opera is a fast browser with useful tools like ad blocking and a free VPN for secure browsing. It integrates messaging apps, making it easier to stay connected while surfing. Although it might take some getting used to if you're switching from another browser, Opera's customizable interface and reliable performance make it a great choice. It works smoothly on both mobile and desktop devices, offering speed and security features that users appreciate. Overall, Opera is nice for its simplicity and helpful features that enhance your browsing experience.
Pros:
Opera has many built-in features that improve browsing. It includes a free VPN for private and secure browsing, and an ad blocker that speeds up loading times by removing ads. The battery saver feature helps extend laptop battery life (making Opera great for travel). These built-in features make Opera a convenient and powerful browser without needing extra extensions.
Cons:
Opera can slow down your computer because it uses a lot of system resources. Additionally, some websites might not be fully compatible with Opera and some sites may not recognize it. Opera also doesn’t have a reading mode, reading list, or social sharing tool.
The Best All in one browser for both business and personal use
Comments: overall opera still the best browser i used in years, this is my 7 year since i switched from chrome to opera.
Pros:
I have been using Opera for over 7 years, and I like it the most for its low RAM consumption and battery saving features that work on my laptop. Also, his features are unique; first of all, you get a built-in ad blocker and a built-in VPN, and you get a sidebar where you can add your social media accounts and see your feeds on the side without opening tabs. Also, the dark mode looks great. easy to search on and easy to manage extensions since it's based on Chrome, you can install Google Chrome extensions.
Cons:
Recently, I had some frequent crashes and several unsupported websites; I hope they can fix these in the future.
My new favourite browser!
Comments: Overall, it's designed to make your browsing experience smooth and convenient.
Pros:
I like all the built in capabilities. The built in ad blocker and VPN is great, getting way less popups with it. I also like the pop out video player so I can browse other sites while still watching videos.
Cons:
Some people might find the interface less intuitive if they're used to other browsers.
Opera min Browser Reviews
Comments: Enjoying using this Browser as it uses less data and allows easy downloading.
Pros:
Offline and ad-blocking features are exceptional. Opera Mini is a solid choice for users who prioritize data savings, speed, and basic browsing on their mobile devices. However, if you need extensive features, complete privacy, or flawless rendering of rich media, other browsers might be a better fit.
Cons:
Less privacy and poor tab management. But all in all this browser is dope.
Good vintage browser
Comments: - I used it just as an alternate to existing browsers to open some multimedia which I want to differentiate from the other browsers on which a work profile is setup.
Pros:
- I like the speed of the browser - The UI is also good. - The data delete options like clearing history, etc. is good
Cons:
- Missing extensions like add blocker in chrome - Not supported by many numbers of applications.
Amazing on all devices
Comments: Opera was the only browser that would work on my devices even with the lowest connection
Pros:
Opera has worked amazingly not only on my computer but in my mobile devices, more than one
Cons:
No cons about opera so far, it has been amazing since i started using it
My Favorite Browser But Could Use Some Upgrades
Comments: Overall I really like Opera. I like it more than any other browser I have used so far, and I've used Internet Explorer, Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and now Opera over the course of 20 or so years since I've been actively using the internet. It has many great features built in that make it an absolute breeze to work with!
Pros:
I absolutely love the ability to set RAM, CPU, and other hardware limitations on what the browser can use. I also like the difference between bookmarks and pinboards and love using both features.
Cons:
One thing I wish would be adjusted with the pinboard feature is that it would warn you if that page was already pinned on the pinboard you are trying to add it to. I have accidentally pinned the same page a few different times and this either shouldn't be possible or should warn you that it is already on it and should pop up with a question saying something like "X page is already on your pinboard named X, would you like to add another copy?" Another thing I wish is that workspaces were more than just options but also allowed either different tabs to auto open when you switch that window to that workspace or would allow for different bookmarks for that specific workspace. This would be ideal for my setup as I have research, tutorials, documentation on my left monitor, any online work with the company's files or databases on my main monitor, and on my right monitor I have my email, social media, and discord open. I would love to setup each of these monitors as their own "workstations" that include their own startup tabs and bookmarks.
A very good PC browser for business use.
Comments: This is a very good software for business interfacing on stable sites or for users that use one set of websites for work consistently.
Pros:
The software was originally very fast and dealt with pop-ups efficiently while retaining performance.
Cons:
After a few updates, the most recent versions began to use a lot of cookies in their operation and this takes a negative impact on the speed of the software.
Opera, the lightest internet browser
Comments: I have been using Opera since Windows XP days, and like it for its stability, fast loading and not consuming much hardware resources like Ram, etc.
Pros:
Opera is one on the most early web browser in the market, that has kep its shine by constant improvements, integrations and updates. It is very light weight and installs very easily. It user graphics interface is very pleasant and offers a variety of themes to select from according to your likings. You can change your default search engine which is integrated in the address bar. Opera tends to focus a lot on keeping your browsing sessions secure. You can choose to surf the web using its incognito mode to avoid cookies and clean your usage traces. It also has an in built VPN, that not only mask your IP by changing it, but also ebales you to evade censorships. Along with that, it also has a data compression tool, which minimize your data usage, a pretty handy feature when using costly cellular data. In the end, it works smoothly on all devices and platforms.
Cons:
While using Opera Web Browser on Android, I have noticed that if you load a page and then switch to another app without closing Opera while multitasking and then switch back to it, it do not retain the preloaded data and reloads the page (probably to minimize Ram consumption) , which is quite irritating if you do so while filling a form or writing an email or something, as you have to start all over again.
Alternatives Considered:
Great Browser with more privacy than other browsers
Comments: Great experience and continue to use for the privacy the browser allows for
Pros:
Its speed and security are two of the main reasons why I use it. Opera also has a built-in ad blocker, which is great for reducing distractions on websites. Overall, Opera Browser is a fast, secure, and customizable web browser that I recommend using.
Cons:
Nothing that I didn't like, although sometimes I forget the logo
Alternatives Considered:
A useful navigator
Pros:
It is a fairly easy to use and install browser, it certainly does not ask anything to other browsers like Mozilla or Chrome, it has the same tools and uses, no more and no less. It is really only not known for the low advertising it has, but it is really a great software, it also allows you to customize it with the font and colors you want.
Cons:
The only disadvantage of this software is the use of the RAM memory of the computer where it is installed, it occupies a lot of resources for just being a browser, I think it is something that should be improved, because some computers really get stuck or overheat if this software is in use.
One of the oldest browser
Pros:
Opera browser was a lifesaver! I had used it for years and when I switched to a different browser, I missed the intuitive interface and speedy performance. The program is easy to use, customizable and has an infinite learning curve. The last two could be scaremongering but what I also like about Opera is it's clear that they focus on improving the browser constantly with updates rather than making new versions.
Cons:
The most important thing to say about Opera is, well, it's an Opera browser. It does what I need it to do for getting around the interwebs. Plus, the download was fast and efficient without any bloatware users might not want on their phones. Bottom line: in a market saturated with browsers, Opera Browser is different than your common ones. Give it a shot today!
Compatible browser for all configuration of devices.
Pros:
Opera is very much stable and it can be used as your default browser. It provides all the features that one could be needed. So undoubtedly, I will recommend it.
Cons:
It has some not useful features. It's speed is not satisfying enough. And the extension that comes with it, most of them are outdated.
is opera the greatest browser?
Comments: overall experience I would say that opera is a good browser, I would really recommend it for people who want to use a lighter browser on the device.
Pros:
Opera is a really good browser, I'm using it for a quit long time in addition to many other browsers, But I found opera is different, I really like the new version of this browser, it looks good, and I really like the new interface, looks easy to use. Opera has many great features like the included VPN, you can use it just with a one-click, I really like the smoothness of the browser, it doesn't use many resources from your device, and the tab management looks great making the surfing on the browser easy for you.
Cons:
the software needs a little bit of improvement on the security side.
The browser I recommend the most
Comments: I regret not having known Opera before. I thought it was a slow imitation of Chrome without practicality, but in fact I was surprised how light and full this browser is. You can do many things at the same time without consuming your memory and processor.
Pros:
You can keep many windows and tabs open without crashing, you can use tools like Whatsapp, Instagram, Telegram and Twitter while you work, and your memory and processor remain intact. In addition to extensions, it has several features such as changing your VPN, watching videos in floating windows while handling other pages, among other features.
Cons:
So far I've had absolutely no problems with Opera, but they say it has fewer extensions than other browsers, but that's never been a problem for me.
Opera review
Pros:
Opera is one of the greatest OG browsers, it has really great features and safe browsing.
Cons:
opera uses a little more resources than other browsers I've used.
Easy usage searches
Comments: I like the user friendly interface of Opera and also I use very often VPN and it is very easy to change VPN in Opera when needed. I can easiy recommend Opera even at least for this option.
Pros:
One of things that like most is the VPN option. Opera has its own VPN feature. So you do not need to install an extra software to add your browser if you need VPN usage. Opera is fast and easy to use. Its menus are very useful. When you highlight a phrase in a text you do not need to right click on it to copy. Before you right click Opera asks you if you copy it.
Cons:
Openning many frames at the same time sometimes can be problemetic, it can take time.
Effective Modern Web Browser
Comments: I find that Opera offers a high degree of flexibility, aiming to consolidate various features into a unified platform for a seamless and convenient workflow.
Pros:
Opera offers a free integrated Virtual Private Network (VPN) that allows you to browse more securely and access region restricted content.
Cons:
As a web developer, Opera does not provide some functionalities which supports building of apps.
Free Web browser on the market for free users
Pros:
Easy to use, convenient for all browsers
Cons:
Security I am not much happier about. Otherwise its good to use.
#1 system for any Hotel
Pros:
It is simple to use and simple to teach. I have used 3 other systems and none come close to to Opera. If you don't believe me trybthe free trial and you will be hooked the 1st day!
Cons:
None. I haven't ran into anything that is up to the task at hand.
The internet search engine
Comments: I experienced a lot on this search engine for many research I normally do in a daily basis and shopping online it is very fast when you search something and get results within minutes so I really like this search engine for research purposes mostly and other things
Pros:
It is very easy to install it within a few minutes and also able to use it to do the following: Research Business Marketing Online shopping Ebook download Social media search and many more This search engine is very good if you want to do other information findings since it's used by a lot of people world wide.
Cons:
Transparency and security . This software is sometimes used by hackers to steal information of the people who do online shopping and also saving information for social media this platform must have a strong security to protect the users from ID theft and other fraud issues
