- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15067940, 6 years agoVery nice but it is annoying to ask twice to remember the website assigned container by default. Why?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15066544, 6 years agoGreat for privacy, great for multi-account access. Does what it says on the box.
To improve:
- Remove the "Open this site in your assigned container?" step, it's completely unnecessary. I've already said I want it, so do it.
- Allow (specific) extensions to work across containers, because I have to re-enter my LastPass password every time I open a new container, which is annoying.
- Ability to sync container config with Firefox account, for multi-device access.
- Ability to edit containers more efficiently, much like one would bookmarks. I'd like to be able to copy a folder of bookmarks and paste them into a container all at once. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13704328, 6 years agoFive stars if you save the containers and config for the site on firefox account and sync...

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15059137, 6 years agoThis is a really great extension that makes life much easier managing multiple clients.
What would be helpful in the future are adding key-bindings and synchronisation.
But again, great tool that I now use everyday. Thank you! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15055667, 6 years agoIt needs sync to be able to be the same containers across all my Firefox installations on all platforms.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Philippe Morin, 6 years agoIt doesn't sync. I would like to share the same container types between my computers. I have a Mac and a PC.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15051914, 6 years agoGreat extension. What keeps me from giving 5 stars is that the keyboard shortcuts need to be mappable. It should be one command to open a container tab.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15050524, 6 years agoVery useful indeed! But I did notice a little problem. When I was in my Personal tab and span a child tab (also personal) to a Medium post as anonymous, one of my cpu cores goes up to 100% load.
That happen every time I spanned the Personal tab with this Medium post.
But, when I opened up the exactly same site on a regular tab (also as anonymous), the cpu was just fine.
So, I logged in at Medium in the Personal context, and the behavior was gone.
That happens on a Firefox Quantum in a Linux Fedora distribution. - Rated 4 out of 5by xrysostom, 6 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15040706, 6 years agoThis functionality is welcome. What was previously managed with multiple browser accounts can now be managed with only one (provided I use the same add-ons).
A few things that would make its initial and possibly regular use more convenient in my case, mainly different ways to sort websites into a container and make it defualt.
--ability to import bookmarks and bookmark folders so that they defualt to a specific container.
--ablity to sort "current tab" and "all open tabs" into a specific container when clicking on the add-on icon
--had minor issues with [are you sure you want to open this site in this container by defualt] message where it was sometimes unresponsive (I added an entire bookmark folder to a container and opened all at once) I mostly had to wait and reload before confirming.
--The ability to generally avoid/disable the [do you want this to defualt to this container] without individually using the [rmember for this site] setting might be welcome.
Consideration: if I'm already in a particular container and link to a site that would normally use a different container I would most likely not want it to instead remain in the current container or have me decide, unless in the defualt container. If the [remember for this site] option is not selected the message does serve that purpose but it's not useful when opening bookmarks. So implementation may have to be complicated or have to allow for various rules that are dependent on the current container. - Rated 4 out of 5by Lukeskyweb, 6 years agoMuito útil este add-on...
Seria perfeito se pudesse ser utilizado algumas ideias do add-on chamado "Temporary Containers", pois ele e meio difícil de entender .
Obrigado Moz & Dev's !!! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15028093, 6 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14552945, 6 years agoThis is a great idea, as are containers generally: isolation much like virtual machines, but a level higher (above OS) so with much less overhead.
This particular app works well but is frustrating in one respect: you cannot specify to open a site in container X in future without already having done so. As it is, you must first re-open your site in a preferred container, then choose to always do so as a second (manual) step.
Even so, this app provides cross-site isolation. I feel much better having all my banking in a container no other apps see.
I accept Facebook tracking my tastes & movements as a fair exchange. If you don't, use the Facebook Container app but get this one anyway, for everything else. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15024706, 6 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15023970, 6 years agoSometimes "Always open in {container}" doesn't respond. It seems like "Always open in Default" never works.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Fedor, 6 years agoI would love to see some sort of way to save my preferences about which sites open in what custom containers, e.g. save it yo my firefox sync account, or save to a simple text file, or to some cloud storage or in whichever way that seems most applicable for this sort of data
- Rated 4 out of 5by Saya S, 6 years agoThe add-on idea is pretty great, but it does have a lot of bugs. An option to have shortcuts for each container would be nice, also when the Firefox browser refreshes itself, my containers are lost and I have to create them all over again which is pretty annoying. More icons for the containers would be welcome

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14359295, 6 years agoIch verwende das AddOn jeden Tag, da ich oft mit unterschiedlichen Accounts auf der gleichen Webseite angemeldet sein muss und nicht Lust habe, unterschiedliche Browser zu verwenden. Den 5. Stern bekommt das Tool, wenn man in Ordnern der Lesezeichen-Symbolleiste Favoriten gleich so abspeichern kann, damit Sie wissen, mit welchen Container es geöffnet werden soll.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Pankaj Jangid, 6 years agoThis is much better than managing different profiles. This is more practical. Profiles have separate DB for stored passwords etc., which is annoying.
To make it easy to use, the Firefox team must work on easier short-cuts for container, container-tabs, default window for containers etc. Developer response
posted 5 years agoThe add-on now supports sync! https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2020/02/06/multi-account-containers-sync/- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13300539, 6 years ago
