Here at Rentec Direct we’re always testing out the capabilities of web browsers.\u00a0 Our application makes use of some of the latest web technologies so it is important that browsers perform to make sure users’ experience is not just good, but great!<\/p>\n

For a very long time the best combination of performance and security has come from Firefox<\/a>.\u00a0 Firefox is an open source application which has the most community support behind it for a web browser.\u00a0 Because of the ample community support, and excellent programmers, Firefox leads the way still in performance and security.<\/p>\n

Google Chrome<\/a> just yesterday released version 5 of their new browser.\u00a0 We’ve been using and testing with Chrome since version 3 and it has come a long way.\u00a0 Chrome takes the cake in performance, even over Firefox.\u00a0 Google Chrome 5 can rightfully claim the title as the fastest browser in the world, at least for now.\u00a0 In our testing, Chrome 5 is noticeably faster all around the web.\u00a0 It has native Flash support to give you the full web without installing any plugins and works very well with all websites we’ve tested it with, including Rentec’s BackOffice which makes use of many new web technologies.\u00a0 Of note, with Chrome version 5, they now support plugins.<\/p>\n

Other popular browsers include Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) and Apple’s Safari browsers.\u00a0 Neither has the performance and security that Firefox and Chrome have and while Rentec Direct is fully compatible with both, we recommend using one of the above.<\/p>\n

If you are looking to speed up your web experience, try out the new Chrome, or if you are currently using IE try them both and see which fits your style best.\u00a0 You will find your internet experience will improve significantly when you release that old slow browser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
