- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12489259, 7 years agoVery nice to separate activities, but the usage could be improved, e.g. by having the possibility to assign complete domains to a container. I have nowhere found this available.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14067981, 7 years agoA nice way to isolate your intranet websites with potential sensitive information from your browsing the rest of the web within the same browser.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Richizilla, 7 years agoBefore I used two mozilla profiles, one for home and other for work. Now I use containers. I happy with then but more features are possible.
- Rated 4 out of 5by daddy32-1364596324.4, 7 years agoServes the purpose. Only thing I'm missing is synchronization of the settings between the devices.

- Rated 4 out of 5by exCorbac, 7 years agoThis is definitely a useful add-on!
The possibility to restrict certain sites to specific containers is really a plus as compared to the basic containers that come with Firefox. It gives less risk to open a site in a "wrong" container or the default one.
It's also quite cool to know it impairs giant sites (Facebook, Google and others) to track one's online activities. I created a google container by the way.
However, the lack of sync ability for the moment costs one star, though it is foreseen by the developer. I found a temporary workaround that is to sync containers.json and ../browser-extension-data/@testpilot-containers/storage.js (both found in one's Firefox profile) through a sync application (FreeFileSync does it very well, download it from here: https://www.freefilesync.org/) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14059490, 7 years agoReally great.
Even better if container preferences were synced between computers. - Rated 4 out of 5by bixo, 7 years agoIt is a really useful tool to keep your browser organized. It enables the capacity to have more than one email account in the same service (gmail for example).
It would be nice to have a right click menu to open a link in a specific container or change a tab to another container. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13997641, 7 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Jazzlover, 7 years agoLove the idea and the simplicity of extension! On the other hand the extension lacks 2 must-have features:
1. Sync containers: name, icons and - the most important - assigned sites for each container. Actually this functionality can be implemented by syncing 2 files in profile folder only: containers.json and storage.js (in extensions folder)
2. the option to open a link from containerized website in (a) a no-container tab or (b) in default-container tab
Otherwise is great.
Cheers! - Rated 5 out of 5by JaggedMallard, 7 years agoVery useful, does exactly what it says on the tin very well and boosts my productivity nicely.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ian Channing, 7 years agoFantastic - keeps your worlds separate where they belong
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5941156, 7 years agoUn must-have qui devrait être intégré dans le navigateur !
C'est idéal pour isoler les services très curieux, auxquels vous êtes connectés comme Facebook ou Google... Par exemple pour Google, vous pouvez toujours ouvrir YouTube dans un conteneur dédié, où vous êtes connectés, ce qui permet de rester "anonyme" sur les autres services de la firme.
Il ne manque plus que la synchronisation de ses paramètres dans Sync et ce sera parfait.
