Graphic Designer Design Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Average browser with lightweight engine" August 3, 2021 4.0 An attractive browser that is great for average users with some great features. Uses lesser RAM and saves battery where it's a concern. And saves data usage with ad blocking system and improves user experience. Included social media checking option saves time. Pros Wonderful UI and can be customizable to the preferred way. The best feature was saving data better than any other browser with functions like in built VPN and adblockers. Specially recommended for gamers due to extended support for gaming. Also unlike Google Chrome Opera used a surprisingly smaller portion of RAM increasing the overall experience. And opera is equipped with many inbuilt user friendly features such as checking WhatsApp, Telegram, or even Instagram. Cons Frequent crashing and some unsupported websites made the user experience negative. And web surfing is slower than Google Chrome. And inability to customize some options in UI was noted as a disadvantage. Review Source MM Maria M. Owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Opera My preferred browser" December 2, 2021 5.0 Pros No need to pay extra for VPN with your virus software because VPN is standard with this browser. Easy to use, works seamlessly without any glitches since I've been using it. It also comes with pinboards to help you organize your links and photos where you can share with others. It's makes work collaboration even easier. The left hand side bar has a lot of quick links to sites you use most, and if you have a question about how to use something, there's a tutorial link right there to help you through your issue. Cons Perhaps more choices in color palettes? I don't have any real cons for this browser except for esthetics. Review Source JM Jaison M. Admin Director Consumer Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "By far the best browsing app" May 12, 2021 5.0 I've always used Chrome and Firefox, but from time to time I had to go back to Opera because of the new features. The other browsers would take so time to implement some of the features, so I decided to stick with the company looking towards the new. Opera became really good at serving what I was expecting. Pros The sidebar from the latests updates is increadible. Makes browsing so simple. The tabs manages is also a big plus. I use a lot of tabs for work, so I can manage 30~40 pages with the "group" option and check Whatsapp/Instagram/Telegram inside the app. The pop-out video options is also great. Cons Sometimes the browser will simply crash. It doesn't stay there processing, it simply closes the app, but when I open again everything is there, like nothing happened. Switched from [Firefox](https://www.capterra.com/p/228987/Firefox/)[Google Chrome](https://www.capterra.com/p/228985/Chrome/) Chrome and Firefox were always going head-to-head, copying each others features and Opera was looking at another direction, searching for new stuff. That made me stick with them. Review Source MS Massimo S.

Freelancer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Opera Review" April 14, 2022 4.0 Opera makes internet browsing very fast for me especially when there is slow connection and this has helped in completing various researches for my projects. Pros I love the fact that the browser has a built-in ad blocker, it is very fast compared to similar products and it is very easy to navigate through the browser. The turbo mode also makes the browser easy to use especially when internet is not fast. Cons Opera offers several options to choose from, this is positive in some cases, but in most cases, it can be very overwhelming and stressful because there are too many options.

Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great browser for everyday use" October 7, 2021 4.0 Opera is an excellent overall web browser app. Pros 1\. Modern and well laid out GUI. 2. Fast loading of webpages. 3. Portable version availability is a great thing which I use. 4. No issues with chrome extension(s) being installed and loaded in the browser. Cons The only things that I did not like are:- 1) sometimes the browser needs to be restarted to load pages even whenInternet is working. 2)Very rarely, the problem of not being able to maximise the opera window. Although, I hvae found the solution after a lot of searching, this issue is very annoying. Review Source Manuel Eduardo M. Bachelor in cientific computer and systems engineering student. Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The most comfortable browser to navigate" October 14, 2022 5.0 Opera is a browser that has given me a lot of flexibility when I browse the internet, all its customization options are useful, its interface is clean and productive, and anyone who starts using it can quickly get used to the browser. Pros Opera is a neat and light browser, it has a fairly extensive and manageable interface for the user, its shortcuts are a very characteristic tool of this browser, the user can access them at any time. It is one of the most customizable browsers, the browser has options which customize the browser itself and external pages that the user visits. It is a quite productive and aesthetic browser at the same time. Cons The only disadvantage that I see in the Opera browser is its level of security, it is not a bad level, but compared to other browsers it is an aspect that could be improved more. Review Source BL Brenden L. Assistant Consumer Goods Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Is opera worth the time?" July 26, 2022 4.0 Pros I liked that opera has dozens of features such as ad blockers, bandwidth saver ,dark mode and the fact that it's solely meant for gaming and whatnot. Cons I don't like that operas ad blocker does not work or at least for me.The feature was kinda of the reason I downloaded it.And as I said kinda not completely theres still so many great features on this browser. Review Source NÖ Nurullah Ö. Accountant Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Opera Nu" June 27, 2022 5.0 I've been using it more and more since they changed their interface. Pros Although I open a lot of tabs, it does not use the memory of my device much, so I can do my work more fluently. Cons I've been using this software for a long time and at first the interface was bad, but it has changed and renewed a lot in the last few years. Switched from [Firefox](https://www.capterra.com/p/228987/Firefox/)[Vivaldi Browser](https://www.capterra.com/p/229063/Vivaldi-Browser/)[Microsoft Edge](https://www.capterra.com/p/229037/Microsoft-Edge/)[Brave](https://www.capterra.com/p/229030/Brave/)[Polypane](https://www.capterra.com/p/233190/Polypane/) I wanted to give it another chance since they changed the interface.

Manager IT Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Browsing with Privacy" April 8, 2022 5.0 Pros Opera is a very user-friendly browser and it can be customized as per user requirements. The sidebar options help quickly access all the messengers that I often use while working. Another option that encouraged me to use this browser frequently because of the free VPN which connects instantly and unblocks websites and somehow it has improved my experience of using a website where I update food menu prices the same website which opens up very slow on my local internet but with opera VPN the experience is totally different and I am really glad about the performance I get. Another thing the VPN also works with Private browsing, unlike Google Chrome where the extensions are disabled when in private mode. The browser comes with a built-in Ad-blocker which really does the job. Cons It comes with a lot of addons by default which I believe should be a user's choice to opt for them or not. Limited add-ons choice. Review Source RE Ralph E. Graphic Designer | Writer | Digital Marketer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Opera Is a Nice Browser that Isn't Just Popular" July 1, 2021 5.0 Overall, I'm very pleased with Opera, and it's definitely one of my favorites. Pros Opera saves more data than any other browser that I've tried. Although some websites may perform better on browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and the rest of them that I've used, Opera has its own strength too. Opera is loaded with many useful features by default that you'd need extensions for in other browsers. For example, it has inbuilt VPN, ad blocker, WhatsApp, Telegram, and even a Web3 wallet. Those are just the ones I can remember without checking. Also, you can create an account to synchronize your browsing history, bookmarks, etc. There's also this cool addition called send to my flow. If it's about features, I can tell you Opera is well loaded out of the box, and it's very fast too. Cons Some websites are only optimized for use on browsers like Chrome, and may not work so well on browsers like Opera. The plugins available on Opera can't be compared with the countless plugins available on browsers like Chrome. They're limited in my opinion. Review Source Juan M.

Pros Es un navegador de internet con funciones adicionales que no tienen otros, como la barra lateral con accso a redes sociales y opciones más utilizadas. Dispone de una especie de VPN para mantener la privacidad de la conexión y un bloqueador de anuncios muy útil. Cons Es un poco más lento que otros navegadores, sobre todo si tienes activado el VPN o si tienes muchas pestañas abiertas. Review Source Ethan E.

Cons Opera présente par moment des bugs sans quoi c'est un bon logiciel. Review Source LM Luigi M. Dirigente E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Browser alternativo" February 2, 2023 5.0 Lo uso quotidianamente non trovo alternative altrettanto valide. Pros Naturalmente si tratta di un browser che ha bisogno di poche parole per essere descritto: ad esempio offro l'opportunità di attivare la funzione VPN integrata, ad esempio non lascia mai "a terra" perché dopo anni ed anni di utilizzo non ricordo crash, ancora è in sviluppo continuo, ad esempio è perfettamente sincronizzabile anche con la sua applicazione per smartphone o tablet, ad esempio è scaricabile per diversi sistemi operativi... È complesso trovare aspetti negativi Cons Non ho riscontrato inconvenienti. Paradossalmente l'unica piccolezza consiste nel fatto che anche i più piccoli aggiornamenti vengono subito proposti all'utente. Switched from [Firefox](https://www.capterra.com/p/228987/Firefox/) Opera mi sembra più intuitivo, più semplice da usare e la VPN integrata è un piccolo regalo da non sottovalutare.

I had used it for years and when I switched to a different browser, I missed the intuitive interface and speedy performance. The program is easy to use, customizable and has an infinite learning curve. The last two could be scaremongering but what I also like about Opera is it's clear that they focus on improving the browser constantly with updates rather than making new versions. Cons The most important thing to say about Opera is, well, it's an Opera browser. It does what I need it to do for getting around the interwebs. Plus, the download was fast and efficient without any bloatware users might not want on their phones. Bottom line: in a market saturated with browsers, Opera Browser is different than your common ones. Give it a shot today!

Per me la ricerca deve essere rapida ed efficace e questo strumento fa sì che sia così. Pros Trovo molto intuitivo questo browser, facile da usare, facile da settare le impostazioni, lo uso da diversi anni e non ho problemi di compatibilità con la maggior parte delle fenzioni dei siti web.

Opera Review" March 22, 2023 4.0 When it comds to my overall experience with Opera Browser, it is a fast and reliable alternative to other popular browsers. However, this is my first choice when I'm dealing with certain tasks like gaming, but not al websites would function as smoothly due to Opera's design and interface. Overally, it has its strengths and weaknesses, but nevertheless is a browser that I would use frequently. Pros As someone who's always mindful of surfing the World Wide Web, their built-in VPN is a major catalyst for me when using this browser because it provides added privacy and security.The addition of an ad blocker as a feature installed on the software ensures my confidence in the software. Cons Knowing that no software is perfect, coming across a bug or a glitch may be a bit strenuous as customer support may be limited. So there isn't a certainty that my issue may be solved instantly as compared to other browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Review Source AF Alexandre F. Automation Engineer Industrial Automation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The browser I recommend the most" April 18, 2022 5.0 I regret not having known Opera before. I thought it was a slow imitation of Chrome without practicality, but in fact I was surprised how light and full this browser is. You can do many things at the same time without consuming your memory and processor. Pros You can keep many windows and tabs open without crashing, you can use tools like Whatsapp, Instagram, Telegram and Twitter while you work, and your memory and processor remain intact. In addition to extensions, it has several features such as changing your VPN, watching videos in floating windows while handling other pages, among other features. Cons So far I've had absolutely no problems with Opera, but they say it has fewer extensions than other browsers, but that's never been a problem for me. Review Source HS Heidy S.
