New developer experiences for Microsoft Edge

pidasms 

Enterprise (Business) users are the foundation to Microsoft's income. My company is already working on an upgraded version of IE11 and I know of two energy companies that are as well. If Microsoft eliminates the ability to use a bookmark system that can't be managed outside of the browser then we (and others) are going to bypass Edge completely. Simply importing/exporting HTML links will not work for business. It will be fine for home users who have glued themselves to any Chromium based browser. But that process is useless in a corporate system where custom folders of bookmarks need to be created for individual departmental or team use, and distributed by employees and administrative support staff and not the IT department.. What made IE 11 so universal was it's bookmark management system. And that's why there are soooo many corporate holdouts to IE 11 in business still. It's the bookmark system. But the kiddies at Microsoft don't understand that because they have never been responsible for corporate level service of their staff. One Microsoft programmer tried to tell me all about server-level distribution of book marks. He was totally clueless how what an actual employee needs. The blowback will be enormous when the public and the media start reporting that Microsoft ignored the needs of their main customer group. Meanwhile, another browser maker reportedly is talking about redeveloping a browser just for business that will leave Microsoft behind. Microsoft has the Office Suite of products that is their mainstay (behind the Windows OS) but an independent company outdoing Microsoft in something like a browser, well, it won't be pretty. Microsoft needs to stop listening to their script kiddies and programmers and start listening to the business people that actually use their products.
