Boosting productivity is a constant quest for many business owners and managers. Whether it’s about speeding up tasks or enhancing communication, even small improvements matter. That’s why it’s essential to leverage the tools at your disposal to the fullest. Surprisingly, your web browser, typically seen as a portal to the internet, can play a significant role in this endeavor, especially if you’re using Microsoft Edge on Windows 11. It comes packed with features that can turbocharge your efficiency. Here are our top five picks:
Split Screen for Multitasking: Juggling multiple tasks is a must-have skill for any business owner. With Microsoft Edge’s split-screen feature, it’s now simpler than ever. Whether you’re comparing web pages, researching various topics, or monitoring different sites simultaneously, split screen allows you to view two pages side-by-side within the same tab. It’s akin to having two windows open concurrently, minus the clutter.
Vertical Tabs for Streamlined Navigation: Feeling overwhelmed by a multitude of tabs? You’re not alone. Microsoft Edge’s vertical tabs present a novel approach to tab management. By aligning tabs vertically along the side of the browser window, you can effortlessly navigate between open tabs and access essential controls like close and mute.
Workspaces for Seamless Collaboration: Collaboration lies at the heart of any successful business endeavor. Microsoft Edge’s Workspaces feature simplifies teamwork by allowing you to create a workspace containing a collection of open tabs, which can then be shared with colleagues or clients via a simple link. This enables them to open multiple tabs with just one click, making it ideal for brainstorming sessions, project management, or team presentations.
Collections for Organized Research: Gathering information from the web is a routine task. Microsoft Edge’s Collections feature streamlines this process by enabling you to effortlessly save and organize text, images, and videos from web pages into customized collections. Stay organized, stay focused, stay productive.
Immersive Reader for Distraction-Free Reading: When you need to immerse yourself in reading an article or document online, distractions on the page can be a hindrance. Microsoft Edge’s Immersive Reader feature offers a clutter-free reading experience by eliminating ads, links, and other interruptions. Customize the text size, spacing, and color scheme to your liking, and even have the content read aloud for a hands-free reading experience.
If your business hasn’t yet made the switch to Microsoft Edge on Windows 11, now might be the perfect opportunity to do so. Need a hand with the transition? Feel free to reach out to us. We’re here to help.
