Honeywell Enterprise Browser vs NordLayer Browser

Honeywell Enterprise Browser is paid software for running standard web applications and browsing web content in a controlled business environment. It supports Android and Windows, with pricing available on request and a free trial. Each connection runs in its own sandboxed process, while URL whitelisting controls which sites devices can reach. Multiple rendering engines support new and existing applications without recoding. JavaScript interfaces connect browser use with barcode reading and receipt or label printing. Administrators can update settings remotely, and those settings remain after a Honeywell handheld is reset. The browser can work with Honeywell Launcher for single-purpose device configurations. Honeywell’s Windows guide describes a 60-day free trial; a runtime license is required for features beyond it. Windows downloads require a Honeywell portal account and login, and the CAB file needs about 11 MB of space. An annual maintenance plan provides later releases and support beyond warranty.

NordLayer Browser is a business web browser for controlling employee access to company resources on Windows and macOS. Administrators can monitor browsing activity for risky patterns and unapproved SaaS use, then apply policies governing file transfers, clipboard actions, camera access, and microphone access. Web threat protection blocks malicious domains using threat-intelligence feeds. Other controls include policy-based routing, browser-session timeouts, traffic segmentation, and private gateways for company resources. Listed browser SSO providers are Okta, Entra ID, OneLogin, Google, and JumpCloud. An organization can create up to 200 security policies, with up to 100 destinations in each policy. NordLayer says the browser is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, has passed a SOC 2 Type 2 audit, and aligns with HIPAA objectives. The Premium plan costs $4 per user per month, requires five users, and requires a dedicated-IP server costing +$40/month. A Custom plan has a 50-user minimum.
