Considered Both Products	Chrome DevTools JG José Gomes Systems Engineer Chose Chrome DevTools DevTools is more commonly available due to the huge market share and has become the familiar standard for this type of tool.

Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Chrome DevTools AEM isn't really like Chrome DevTools but offers some ability to crop images once you see how the content would look on a particular device.

Jake Tolbert Director of Development - Data Services Chose Chrome DevTools While I like the look and feel of Firebug a lot better than DevTools, the Chrome version is just better.

Likelihood to Recommend	Chrome DevTools helps us identify areas to address such as optimising website performance, cross-browser compatibility, and responsive design. We use the Coverage and panel to identify any unused code, which can cause slow loading times, together with the Network panel which is crucial for analysing page load performance and optimising resources. Incentivized Martin Dimmock Owner, Chief Developer Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	Provides clear, easy to understand, and actionable intelligence on how the browser is retrieving, parsing and rendering the page. Covers a wide gamut of front-end development tasks, from manipulating CSS rules to line-by-line debugging of JavaScript to helpful page and server insights. Continuously incorporates new tools and helpful features. With nearly every major Chrome release there is a "What's new" update with at least one or two useful items.

Cons	It would be nice in the elements panel, if clicking on a node scrolled the screen to that node. On some large pages its easy to get lost in the code and not know where the element you're inspecting resides on the screen. It would be nice if, in addition to the console, there was a panel that behaved more like an editor instead of a command prompt. It may seem trivial but it would be very helpful when writing multi-line functions. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	While Chrome DevTools are very powerful, it's not the easiest thing to use, as there are so many different tools built in. It takes some exploring to discover all the options possible within DevTools, but with a little exploring, the DevTools become a very powerful asset. Accessing the basic HTML and CSS inspection is very easy though, and that's the most common usage for the DevTools.

Support Rating	I'm not entirely sure what to rate the support for DevTools, because I don't have any experience dealing with official customer support for DevTools. I would guess the primary support for DevTools would be in a Chrome forum. Typically if I have a question or issue, I am able to find an answer from doing a quick Google search. It's pretty widely used, so it's not difficult to find answers. Incentivized Nate Dillon Front-End Web Developer, Office of Mediated Education Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	I find them pretty much the same, they have the same tools except Firefox doesn't provide the lighthouse functionality. I do prefer firefox's dark theme and colour palette. But I use Chrome Dev tools because of the Light house functionality that analyzes the page load and scores the website on desktop and mobile experience.

Return on Investment	All positive, the tool is free so there's no need to spend money on it. Every return is positive. A lot, their tools increases productivity due because it helps developers to create and test websites inside the browser. Tools are intuitive so there's no need to invest in education on developers to learn these tools. Incentivized Miguel Useche Wordpress developer Read full review	No answers on this topic
