## Opera Reviews
  ### 1. Fast and pretty reliable browser

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rui S. | Software engenire, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 26, 2021

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

What I like best about Opera browser are the privacy and security features. And where Opera stands out from other browsers is the included free VPN thatis very helpful for those moments that you need to keep your online privacy and by defult comes with the add bloker and anti tracker activated.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

It´s contraditory but one of the aspects that I don't like is that opera comes with too many incentives to inadvertently compromise your privacy. For example, just after downloading Opera allows you to create an opera account with Facebook, and by doing that you are allowing Facebook and their third party cookies in your browser.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

By default is a fast and secure browser but if you really care about your privacy I'll sugest avoiding the Facebook messenger / Watsapp / Instagram integration displayed on the left side of the browser.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use the Opera browser, to test and debug how the websites and web apps I code look and work on that browser. It's just part of my testing tools. Making sure Opera users have a nice experience on my websites.

  ### 2. Opera browser is superior to Google Chrome

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alexander D. | Marketing Lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2022

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

Opera browser has an innovative layout and a web3 cryptocurrency wallet built directly into their software. It's also lightning fast and secure. It's a much better experience than using Google Chrome.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

I don't like that the back page button is located in a drop down menu.  This means that in order to go back a page I must first tap the menu button and then tap the back page button.  Two buttons tapped in order to go back one page.  Every other modern browser has a back page button that does not require an additional step.  The back page button is one click away with every browser but opera.  Seems like a trivial issue but it can slow down productivity for some, including me.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With thier integrated web3 crypto wallet built directly into the wallet, we no longer need extra wallet extensions like metamask or tronlink (for lack of a better example).  This simplifies the browsing experience when using decentralized applications.

  ### 3. Light weight browser with lots of capabilities

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ankit S. | Back End Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2022

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

A lightweight browser that gives users a secured browsing experience. It works smoothly on any computer. Its user interface is also simple, and it contains lots of Chrome's libraries. It provides a free inbuilt VPN ( Virtual Private Network ) which encrypts all your traffic and provides you a secured platform. It is available almost on evey platform.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

It provides secure browsing while using VPN, but after that, there are some privacy concerns, and it also logs the user data in VPN. If you are a developer, then Opera is not an excellent browser to use.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

Opera is a good browser to use. It will fulfill almost all your browsing needs and also provide you with a VPN service to browse privately. Also, its homepage is customizable, so you can customize it as [er your needs. So at least try once.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Opera browser provides a user-friendly browsing experience which is much better than other browsers available in the market, as it is lightweight so it does not consume a lot of memory. With the help of its inbuilt VPN service we can browse privately where we does not want to reveal our identity.

  ### 4. My experience in Opera browser.

**Reviewed Date:** June 20, 2022

It has a VPN that helps me hide my online activity, guards against hackers and helps me hide my IP address.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

Some pages can't be opened using this browser.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

I want to suggest using this browser because it has a VPN that helps you prevent unknown pages that have a virus on them.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Reviewed by:** Meiyi L. | Freelance Transformation Agent, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2021

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

The built-in VPN service. The sleek design, and security (ads blocker etc.), and the speed! It takes far less memory than Chrome. And overall the user friendliness is great. Also the workspace is a great feature.dddddddddd

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

Well, there are certain chrome extensions that I like to use, they are these kind of small but very useful things that make a big difference. I can't have them on opera.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Security, security, security. Privacy, speed, design, user friendliness. I'd say the biggest benefit has been security, above all others. In chrome I'd need to install half a dozen of extensions to achieve the same security. Having workspace is helpful.

As a truly innovative design, it contains every element that I want a successful internet browser to have. I would recommend it to everyone.

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kayla K. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2021

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

I have a 2013 MacBook. I was using Google Chrome, but load times were long, my computer fans would always come on, and programs started lagging. I decided to try Opera because there are many studies proving that it has a lower CPU usage. It definitely helped increase browser speed and reduce my computer's CPU usage.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

Many apps and extensions are not yet compatible with Opera. I use Grammarly for Google Docs frequently, but that is not supported by Opera. I was also unable to save web pages as desktop apps.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I needed a browser solution that wasn't so labor intensive on my computer. Opera worked just as intended. I still use Opera occasionally, but Firefox ended up being the best solution for me.

Additionally, the free tools like VPN and ad blockers are handy.

There have been some security concerns with the Opera browser. While I haven't personally faced any security issue, however, it is one thing that makes me move away from the Opera as security is of prime importance to me.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Philanthropy | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2021

Opera has a great interface and integrates different types of apps and functions directly into the browser. For example, you can use Whatsapp as an integrated app and also browse with their own internal ad blocker. It's quick and functions well.

Opera can still use a bit of processing power if you have enabled a bunch of apps and have many pages/tabs open. Nonetheless, it functions quite similar to other browsers in regards to speed and reliability.

Opera makes browsing simple. Like other browsers, it can also be used on mobile devices, so you can sync your pages and favorite websites between your laptop or desktop computer and your phone.

  ### 19. Opera full review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Pharmaceuticals | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2021

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

One of the essential benefits of Opera, when contrasted with non-Chromium-based programs, is the inborn qualities of Chromium. These incorporate a perfect and direct UI, a solid need toward speed and execution, accessibility of program augmentations, and similarity with set up web advancements and guidelines.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

While the facts really confirm that this program has used the center plan theory of Chromium, it isn't quite as spotless and clear as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, just as non-Chromium programs like Mozilla Firefox and Safari. Like the element filled direction of Vivaldi program, this is a striking weakness of Opera. Clients who favor a moderate interface will track down its sidebars, presence of different buttons, and different highlights also diverting and fairly nosy.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I think you can try it's interface looking good and clear because many people are facing many problems and many quiry so I hope you trying best to solve this problem as soon as possible.

  ### 20. Browser with best functionalities and features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Fadi K. | Sales Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 10, 2021

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

The auto-refresh that comes with opera it is very important for the type of work as a customer service we are doing.
Once we receive a ticket for an incident from our customers, sometimes, the email server doesn't provide the notification. Hence, alternatively,,, we started using Opera to access our cloud-based Saas software, and we enabled the auto-refresh to reload the new ticket page every 5 minutes.
This way, we ensured that none of the new tickets were missed.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

There was nothing we didn't like about opera, me and my colleagues we used it for a couple of years now, and we never faced any issue with the lagging or crashing like the other Web browser our there.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

If you are looking for a web browser with reliability and stability, Opera Browser is the one you should adopt for your business and emails.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We want to see the latest queue appearing on our software immediately, and the auto-refresh was an outstanding feature

  ### 21. An app for all your needs

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sakshi D. | Assistant Professor, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2021

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

It's easy to use and convenient for any person to operate. Many tabs can  be opened with it by just clicking on it. Therefore, it is handy and saves a lot of time. One can easily manage through different pages simultaneously.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

It hangs somethimes. It takes a bit more time to open a page. Many advertisements are shown in between which consume a bit time but somehow better than some other apps.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

No such major problem is being faced by me. Minor problems exist in every app. The security feature should be enhanced along with privacy settings to make it more safe and secure for all users.

  ### 22. Secured Web Browser with Free VPN Activated

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aman G. | Business Development Executive, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2021

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

Opera has been a very essential browser for a lot of things:

1) It gives a VPN option to be activated which allows me to switch locations for sending emails to clients to different countries with ease as there is a high risk of mails going into the spam folder but because of VPN, I have faced fewer mails being going to spam folder.

2)  It gives instant access to WhatsApp Web, Messenger, etc. across the right pane (i.e. sidebar) which makes it easy to operate WhatsApp and others with ease even while I am working. I can quickly see the messages and even respond without being distracted from my mobile.

3) In-build Ad Blocker is a much-needed tool. It helps me quite well to avoid unnecessary ads that pop while browsing sites or youtube. It blocks them and keeps them away which helps in eliminating useless pop-ups that come while accessing unknown websites for research for new information.

4) Dark Mode, the new thing, helps me at night when I want to use the browser with less strain to my eyes since I have to deal with international clients at night. Feels comfortable to use in less outdoor light.

5) Option to enable or disable WebRTC feature which is a blessing as most of the browsers do not give this specific accessibility at large to the users.

6) Screenshot feature is very useful when I have to take screenshots of a website to make a document as chrome and Mozilla do not offer this and I usually have to use Print Screen to take but with Opera, I easily take the screenshots with ease and with whatever area I want in the shot.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

Till this time, I haven't had many issues with Opera, using over 3 years, however, a couple of things I do not like much:

1) Sometimes when multiple tabs are opened, Opera freezes and suddenly crashes for no reason.

2) Upon opening multiple tabs, Opera slows down. I have 6 GB RAM and a 3 GHz processor but then also I face this issue.

3) If I set up www.google.com as per the first page to open and not the home page, Opera browser takes time to load and open the browser. And even it opens then if I click on Gmail, then it slowly loads the account which sometimes irritates me. There are no internet issues as I have an Airtel Connection with 100 MBPS speed (download & upload).

4) If by mistake I click on the Screenshot icon, then I have to select the area for the screenshot, there is no option to cancel it. to cancel it, I have to select the area, and then it gives me three options out of which one is to cancel the execution.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

Please look at the issues I have faced and work on them. I have been using Opera since the time I had my first Symbian Phone from Nokia. Opera browser is the most loved one.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The points I like about Opera are the problems that Opera helps me to solve:

1) It gives a VPN option to be activated which allows me to switch locations for sending emails to clients to different countries with ease as there is a high risk of mails going into the spam folder but because of VPN, I have faced fewer mails being going to spam folder.

2)  It gives instant access to WhatsApp Web, Messenger, etc. across the right pane (i.e. sidebar) which makes it easy to operate WhatsApp and others with ease even while I am working. I can quickly see the messages and even respond without being distracted from my mobile.

3) In-build Ad Blocker is a much-needed tool. It helps me quite well to avoid unnecessary ads that pop while browsing sites or youtube. It blocks them and keeps them away which helps in eliminating useless pop-ups that come while accessing unknown websites for research for new information.

  ### 23. Easily the best browser available

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sivaram S. | Software Programmer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 16, 2021

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

Opera is extremely fast and easy to use. It has a very low RAM consumption and CPU usage, making it much quicker and smoother to use compared to Chrome and Firefox. Opera has a built-in VPN and Adblock. The built-in VPN has several different locations that you can choose. There is also an option to select the best optimal location that Opera will pick to give you the best speeds possible. You can see the IP address of the location you choose in the same menu and the data you've used while the VPN is turned on. Opera is based on the Chromium project, and it offers great customization. You can install addons from the Opera website to include addition features.

Opera has a very intuitive speed dial in which you can add a list of websites that you frequently visit to access them quicker. Right above that is a Google Search bar that you can use to search with ease. Opera has a sidebar on the left that comes with plugins for several apps such as Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram. This makes it easier for you to access each of these social media platforms from within the same window. Furthermore, Opera has a player which you can integrate with Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music to play songs when you're using the web browser.

Opera also has an app for mobile phones that you can use to sync your data with your computer to access all your browsing data. Opera on mobile also comes in a mini version that's far more lightweight than the main application.

**What do you dislike about Opera?**

There are quite a few websites that are catered towards Chrome and Firefox that cannot be used in Opera. This is a minor issue and not necessarily that of Opera's, but such situations require you to temporarily use a different browser.

**Recommendations to others considering Opera:**

I recommend Opera due to the streamlined browsing experience it offers and its customization.

**What problems is Opera solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Opera for general browsing. It's fast and works very well on my laptop which I've had for a few years. Since it's not very demanding in terms of CPU usage, it doesn't lag at all and web pages load relatively quickly. I'm able to manage all my social media accounts easily from the sidebar without needing to open multiple tabs at the same time, which can slow your browser down. Furthermore, Opera recently released a new version of their browser called Opera GX. Opera GX is huge improvement over Opera and comes with several tools such as limiting RAM usage and bandwidth if you're on limited data.

  ### 24. Privacy Browser with many Features

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Utilities | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 25, 2022

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

I love its user interface. It allows for VPN browsing at no extra cost or limits on bandwidth total. It has all the same features as any other major browser, but with an emphasis on privacy.
