Where Work Happens: The Enterprise Browser Revolution

The browser has evolved. No longer a passive window to the internet, it is now the most strategic interface for work —powering secure access, orchestrating workflows, and enforcing policy in real time. In a world of hybrid work, legacy systems, and cloud sprawl, organizations need a smarter browser.

There's no better example of this disconnect than the browser—a tool used by nearly every employee, every day, yet rarely examined closely. That's starting to change, however, with forward-thinking organizations recognizing the browser not just as a gateway to the internet, but as a strategic foundation for their other technology investments. In that realization lies a powerful opportunity: the browser as the next frontier of enterprise productivity and digital transformation.

HERE Enterprise Browser is that browser. Built on technology trusted by over 90% of the world's largest financial institutions, HERE delivers an integrated, secure, and extensible workspace designed to reduce friction, enhance governance, and improve outcomes—without replacing your existing tech stack.

The Business Case for the Enterprise Browser

Traditional browsers were built for consumers—not enterprises. As a result, they:

Enterprise browsers solve these problems by making the browser itself the platform for productivity and security enforcement.

"The idea of having something that sits on top of your current tool set, that doesn't disrupt it, that helps people do their jobs better, is compelling."

HERE goes a step further: it brings unmatched experience, extensibility, and trust—built over a decade in the most demanding enterprise environments.

Financial Services: Leading the Enterprise Browser Revolution

Capital markets organizations have emerged as the frontrunners in enterprise browser adoption, paving the way for transformation across all industries. This leadership position isn't coincidental—it stems from the unique challenges that make financial services the most demanding environment for browser technology.

High Application Density

Traders and analysts use dozens of web-based tools simultaneously, making context-switching a significant productivity drain. A typical trading desk requires seamless access to Bloomberg terminals, risk management systems, research platforms, communication tools, regulatory reporting applications, and customer relationship systems—all within milliseconds of market-moving events. Traditional browsers force users to toggle constantly between these critical applications, creating friction that directly impacts trading performance and client service quality.

Security Rigor

With stringent compliance needs and high operational risk, finance inherently demands secure, managed browser environments. Financial institutions must enforce data loss prevention, maintain comprehensive audit trails, control screen sharing capabilities, and ensure granular access management across all applications. The regulatory oversight in financial services—from SEC and FINRA to international banking regulations—requires security controls that traditional browsers simply cannot provide.

Early Adoption of Enterprise Browsers

Financial institutions were among the earliest to recognize the limitations of consumer browsers and deploy enterprise-grade browser solutions like HERE. This early adoption stems from the industry's combination of technological sophistication, regulatory pressure, and the direct financial impact of productivity improvements. When milliseconds can mean millions of dollars, financial services organizations cannot afford the inefficiencies that traditional browsers create.

What the Next Generation of Work Looks Like with HERE

HERE Enterprise Browser delivers a suite of purpose-built capabilities designed for enterprise-scale complexity, mapping directly to the needs of modern, cross-functional teams:

Supertabs eliminate the productivity drain of toggling between windows by organizing workflows into structured, persistent workspaces where critical applications can be viewed and used side-by-side. These unified workspaces are ideal for teams juggling multiple platforms and can be pre-configured for specific business processes, shared across teams, and optimized based on analytics and user feedback.

SuperSearch transforms information discovery by enabling users to search across all open applications, historical sessions, and connected systems through a single query interface. This puts required information and tools at users' fingertips instantly. For teams focused on speed and access—those responsible for high-stakes transactions, complex analysis, or critical customer interactions—this represents a fundamental productivity breakthrough.

AI Center introduces native AI integration embedded directly into browser-based workflows, securely and with full contextual awareness. Rather than forcing users to switch to separate AI tools that lack workflow context, HERE's AI Center understands what applications users are working with and can provide insights based on all displayed data. Organizations connect their approved AI models while maintaining complete data governance and security control.

Notification Center centralizes and intelligently surfaces relevant alerts from various enterprise tools—CRM updates, IT tickets, application reminders—directly within the browser interface. This empowers frontline teams and decision-makers to prioritize actions more effectively. In many cases, users can complete required actions directly within notifications themselves, keeping workflow disruption to an absolute minimum.

Signals ensure that legacy systems, web applications, and custom platforms can communicate with one another and share data seamlessly. Instead of functioning as high-powered silos, tools from disparate origins work together as part of virtually any workflow. This seamless interoperability enables enterprises to leverage the best capabilities available while unlocking maximum value from existing technology investments.

For most enterprises, productivity improvements without robust security are non-starters. HERE Enterprise Browser is built on zero-trust architecture and provides secure access to both SaaS and internal tools with granular, application-level permissions. Enterprise-grade security features help mitigate data loss and reduce access risk across jurisdictions—ideal for CIOs and IT leaders managing global operations. With comprehensive administrative and auditing tools, security professionals gain greater control without compromising usability—a critical balance in the age of hybrid work.

The Pressure Is On: CIOs and Tech Leaders Need Measurable ROI

This browser innovation is occurring within a high-stakes business context. Enterprise technology leaders face mounting pressure to maximize existing technology investments and support a future-ready workforce—often with constrained budgets. This environment demands agility, speed, and AI-driven decision-making.

Gartner predicts that by 2027, teams that blend business and technology roles will be 50% more successful than those that remain siloed. By 2028, 20% of workplace applications will leverage AI-driven personalization. However, these advances will struggle to gain traction in organizations dominated by fragmented experiences and disjointed workflows governed by consumer-grade browsers designed for a different era.

HERE Enterprise Browser provides the foundation for this next chapter of enterprise computing. It empowers teams to move faster, collaborate more intelligently, and build more integrated digital experiences—all within a secure, enterprise-grade environment. It represents a strategic first step toward a unified, elevated technology stack, ensuring that future initiatives—whether new tools, internal development projects, AI investments, or evolving remote/hybrid work policies—are positioned to deliver maximum return on investment.
