Review summary

Users praise Containerise for reliable performance and as a strong replacement for Multi-Account Containers, with powerful URL/path-based rules and good handling of subdomains. It fits well with privacy workflows and bookmarks. However, maintenance appears inactive, cross-device syncing is missing, and users report bugs and occasional data loss. Regex/documentation are limited, and there are compatibility issues with Firefox updates. Overall, it’s valuable but has notable stability and synchronization drawbacks.

Pros

Reliable and generally smooth performance; widely considered to work well.
Strong replacement for the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension; improve workflow.
Powerful rule-based URL/relative-path matching to assign sites to specific containers.
Effective handling of subdomains and multiple accounts with per-site rules.
Easy to use and integrates well with privacy workflows, including bookmark support.

Cons

Not actively maintained; development appears inactive.
Lacks cross-device sync for container/URL rules; manual setup on each install.
Buggy/unstable behavior reported (UI issues, tab loops, occasional data loss).
Regex support is limited (no flags, limited examples) and documentation is sparse.
Compatibility issues/regressions with Firefox updates causing features to stop working.

2025-10-27	ni*****	Its a great plugin idea but it doesn't really work as intended. After setting up Zen, leaving idle for a day and returning back to to it, Zen erased by pinned tabs on click. I could click any pinned tab and it was like closing them. This behaviour was reproducible until I deactivated this plugin.

2025-07-30	Da*****	It seems to have stopped functioning properly in Firefox version 141.0 I still see my list of containers to push tabs into but they don't open in the associated container anymore when visiting a page. Edit: The list of containers I had in the editor was gone hence it stopped matching new tabs to the rules I had in place. Very obnoxious.
