"great browser that integrates all my passwords and cards with google"
What do you like best about Chromium?

the integration with google, fast and has integrations with various application extensions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chromium?

sometimes it consumes a lot of memory and some extensions crash frequently. However, it must be a problem with the extensions themselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Still the most powerful browser"
What do you like best about Chromium?

Chromium leads the industry in its JavaScript engine such that all others use it.

Powerful extensions. I also really like being able to have websites launch as standalone "apps" with their own shortcuts and taskbar icons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chromium?

Manifest v3 will break ad-blockers in Chrome and that's disappointing. Can be a resource hog: will consume all the memory available to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review for Chromium"
What do you like best about Chromium?

It's very easy to use and have a lot of features. cool ranges of background pictures to choose from. It is very convenient to use, and whenever I search/surf something, I always get my desired result on the top page. Also, it has features like storing bookmarks, manage history,manage cookies which are really great. Voice search and image search features are also really helpful. Really recommended to use Chromium. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chromium?

It is memory-consuming, and when you use a lot, it becomes slow then, I have to reset settings to remove all caches, cookies, history and regain speed.

So this slowness issue can be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Browser which is extremely secure"
What do you like best about Chromium?

Chromium is very secure to even forget about browser security issues with websites and content; extensions apply some additional settings and filters. The extra privacy it offers (fewer data sent to 3rd parties). The tooling it provides for performance optimization/analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Chromium?

Memory consuming, if you use a lot then it becomes quite slow and then we need to clear the cache, history etc. Have to reset the settings so that it can again work back smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
