  ### 2. Excellent product built on the same source code as Chrome without Google tracking

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel L. | President and COO, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 19, 2013

**What do you like best about Iron?**

It has the speed of Chrome, but has many privacy features (eliminating Chrome tracking) that Chrome does not have.  One particularly aspect is the Google Updater, which is an embedded service that installs with Google Chrome, but is not present in SRWare Iron.  It also does not have the URL Tracker that is built into Google Chrome.  SRWare Iron also has a built in configurable AdBlock feature.

**What do you dislike about Iron?**

I don't particularly like the default home page that shows up when you first install SRWare Iron, but that is very easy to change.  

**Recommendations to others considering Iron:**

Definitely recommend that you install it within a business environment and make sure you stay up to date with the latest Chromium source code to keep up with Google Chrome's baseline Chromium code base.
