      The shear fact that they use a non default user shows that they probably have an above average ability to use their computer, which could be helpful in their job.

          It's been a while since I've seen a company that had IE set as a default.

              This is another reason also why this report is meaningless.

                  Most around here still do. We have to use it, many of our daily drivers require it. Yep old legacy hospital systems... yeah!

                    Same. Chrome is so easy to deploy with Group Policy and has just as much control as IE if not more. Now firefox doesn't (or didn't) pull it's proxy settings from the system so that can be an issue with some content filters.

                      As much as I hate Chrome it is supported by our EHR vendor where FF is not... might be time to look into using it.
                      Though we'll still have to keep IE around for the hospitals.

                        You hate chrome? Its so much faster than firefox. They have both Administrative Template files (Group Policy) and Enterprise MSI installers to deploy. https://support.google.com/installer/answer/146164?hl=en

                          I haven't looked into the stats, but I would be very surprised if the majority of SMBs don't still use IE as their default.

                          I use Chrome and IE interchangeably, and frankly I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference. I think the rounded tabs on Chrome look prettier, but that's about it.

                            Yep I do... I just seem to have little problems with it... Plus I like the plugs better on FF.
