Microsoft Edge’s IE Mode will give a better experience over the current Enterprise Mode

For me, one of the biggest announcements at Microsoft Build 2019 it’s Microsoft Edge’s IE Mode.
Looks like Microsoft is really committed with the new “Edgium” browser and trying to allow enterprises to stop installing 2 browsers (usually Edge/Internet Explorer and Google Chrome).

With the new Microsoft Edge, based in chromium, plus the new IE Mode Microsoft tries to eliminate the need for Google Chrome and also gives users a better experience when accessing internal websites that only work with Internet Explorer.
Instead of automatically opening an IE browser, the IE Mode allows a new instance of IE directly in a new Edge tab. This gives the users a very very nice and integrated experience.
