- Rated 3 out of 5by Jacques shellac, 6 years agoIf I'm in a Google container and I launch a site that isn't attached to a container it should open in Default, rather than google. I kept wondering why I had to reauthenticate sights that weren't attached to a specific container. This is really interrupting my workflow. Other than this I have no complaints. Okay, new complaint: really need a method of exporting configuration.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Robin, 6 years agoI really like this add-on. It would be perfect if we had the option to 'lock-down' a container of choice, in the same way that Facebook Container is locked-down.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15016930, 6 years agoWorks great, but sometimes I forget that when I log in on a Google account for a different website I need to open my separate tab.
- Rated 2 out of 5by UnknownEngineer, 6 years agoGreat idea, lazy execution.
Often fails to contain certain sites in their containers, popup for confirming a site be exclusively handled in given container sometimes unusable. Containers are a single flat list.
All that is minor, for an official addon it cannot sync settings, and settings are partially lost when disabled. Sites contained in default containers will be remembered, custom containers permanently lost.
If you are going to delete everything on disable (not remove), for any reason, at-least be thorough.
TLDR: Bare minimum functionality, still buggy. Is being an example an excuse for being poorly done?Developer response
posted 5 years agoThe add-on now supports sync! https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2020/02/06/multi-account-containers-sync/ - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13550075, 6 years agoDi base è ottima ma è troppo limitata. Oggi ho perso tutte le preferenze e non posso recuperarle. Per favore aggiungete il backup, inoltre non è possibile selezionare da menu i siti salvati, dovete creare una UI decisamente più completa e che permetta di personalizzare i domini aggiunti.
- 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 5 out of 5by guandalf, 6 years agoEasy and straightforward way to keep different browser contexts separate.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14177145, 6 years agogreat - but today all my containers disappeared and default 4 were present only !!
- 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 2 out of 5by Bryan, 6 years agoGreat idea. Too many bugs.
Works great until all of the container configuration disappears and it for some reason reverts to the original four default containers it comes with upon installation. I hope it gets better. It is pretty frustrating to recreate ~10 containers and assign dozens of web sites to each of them more than once. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14644857, 6 years agoWorks when it works.
The problem 1 is, it opens all links from a container in the same container, you can not setup "default container" rules. (eg. google.com is in container A for a reason, but I want to open search results in default container so websites can be normal). Nor can not setup strict rules (eg. ONLY youtube.com is in container B, and all other sites will go back to normal)
The problem 2 is, no wildcard support. So if you want whole "Google" in a container, you have to setup rules like: drive.google.com, keep.google.com, image.google.com, maps.google.com etc.etc.etc. Instead of " *.google.com"
