Microsoft today announced a new feature in Internet Explorer 11 called Enterprise Site Discovery Toolkit  that allows IT Pros to discover which of their Enterprise line of business applications are truly critical and used by their users. Whenever enterprises are upgrading Windows, they need to do full line of business app compatibility testing with the latest version of Internet Explorer. In addition to testing, it can be difficult to mitigate compatibility issues without knowing more about how the application is built. This is where Enterprise Site Discovery Toolkit helps the admin.

The Enterprise Site Discovery Toolkit provides a way for an IT Pro to better understand how their users are browsing with Internet Explorer 11. This toolkit enables collecting information from Internet Explorer 11 about all sites that are visited by Enterprise users to build an inventory of sites used in the Enterprise. This information will help IT Pros prioritize which applications they should focus their app compatibility testing with Internet Explorer. This toolkit also provides additional information on how the site is designed and used by Internet Explorer and that information can then be used to populate the Enterprise Mode site list, mitigating compatibility issues of critical sites.
