Cờ Rôm+ is a freeware web browser focused on the Vietnamese market, developed by Vietnamese company Cốc Cốc, based on Chromium open source code,[1] which is the same platform used by Google Chrome.

According to data published by StatCounter in February 2014, Cờ Rôm+ has overcome Opera to become the top 5 most popular browsers in Vietnam within 2 months after official release.[2]

Overview

Majority of features, quality and stability of Cờ Rôm+ are remarked as similar to Google Chrome.[3] The significance is that Cờ Rôm+ contains functionality that is useful to Vietnamese users:[4] automatic typing aid, faster downloads, bypassing DNS blocking, ability to download audio and video from popular sites, and integrated English-Vietnamese dictionary.[5][6] According to Vn Review, a software technical review website, these tailored features add more value that put Cờ Rôm+ on the map and differentiate Cờ Rôm+ from other Chromium-based browsers.[7]

Facts

  • The first version of the browser was presented 4/12/2012.[8] At that time, the interface of Cờ Rôm+ was similar to that of Google Chrome, but the browser had already integrated 2 features: the ability to download files to multiple streams and storage of media content[8]
  • The browser was officially submitted five months later May 14, 2013 [1] with two new features introduced: automatic typing aid and bypassing DNS blocking. To date, the developer group has published 6 additional features.
  • Currently Cờ Rôm+ is only available for Windows[6] and supports English and Vietnamese.[9]
  • 2 months after official release, the number of Cờ Rôm+ users surpassed Opera [10] and later outperformed Safari and Internet Explorer [11]
  • Cờ Rôm+ is among the 5 most popular browsers in Vietnam, according to data from StatCounter[2]

Features

  • Cờ Rôm+ has a mechanism to reserve domain name resolution, allowing bypassing blocked websites (including Facebook) on DNS.[5][7] This feature debuts on May 14, 2013, in the first official release of the browser[1]
  • Cờ Rôm+ is equipped with a system that automatically analyzes to add lingual tone to Vietnamese text. It allows user to enter Vietnamese text without need of applications like Unikey Vietkey.[12] When users type any text without tone, Cờ Rôm+ will suggest the most likely variants of arrangement of tones after processed on Cốc Cốc server.[13] Developers say that addition of tones increases the typing speed up to 50% among regular users (those who cannot fluently type with 10 fingers) and 20% among advanced users.[1][7]
  • To further support Vietnamese language, Cờ Rôm+ automatically detects spelling mistakes, underlining and suggesting corrections with 94% accuracy. According to experiments, Cờ Rôm+ outperforms Google Chrome's spell-checker in 97 cases out of 100. The developer group estimates that this feature saves users up to 4-10 days per year to type and review documents. [14]
  • Cờ Rôm+ incorporates English-Vietnamese dictionary, assisting English learners or international newspapers' subscribers from elementary to advanced level. When users double click into any English word, a small box will appear on site, showing meaning and pronunciation of the word. [15]
  • Cờ Rôm+ is able to find media content (audio, video) on most streaming websites and save it to computer for viewing or listening offline, by one click on an icon on toolbar.[5] Except for several premium websites, all popular streaming websites, for example, YouTube and Dailymotion, are downloadable on the browser.[16]
  • To accelerate download, Cờ Rôm+ downloads files to multiple streams, which under certain conditions can increase download speeds up to eight times. In this case, the actual acceleration depends on the bandwidth of the Internet, and the speed at which the server sends files.[5] At present, it has not yet provided option to increase/decrease downloading speed.[17]
  • Unlike Google Chrome and most other browsers based on Chromium, which removes and cancels all pending downloads when the browser is closed, Cờ Rôm+ is able to save and renew download process (assuming that the server hosting the file supports this feature).[6]

User feedback and issues

  • DNS bypassing feature gets huge traction from the community. Users feedback on this feature as the most practical one regarding unstable access to Facebook in Vietnam, since it's much faster and more convenient than conventional addition of software like Hotspot Shield or Ultrasurf, which usually brings some side effects like Internet connection slowdown or third parties advertising.
  • Tone-addition system for Vietnamese text shares the database of Cốc Cốc Search Engine, another of product of the company Cốc Cốc, which is known as the largest database of websites in Vietnamese. The system analyzes language used on websites to suggest the most likely variants of tones for any Vietnamese text inserted in the browser. This dynamic principle allows frequent update of newly coined terms in order not to be outdated on the Internet. However this feature seems unable to change users' typing habit. The feature is optional and users can opt out, either only on some specific websites or completely on browser.
  • Users highly welcome free and high speed media download. However finding and downloading media content from every websites is somewhat controversial regarding copyright issues that might raise in the future. The counter argument is that, since many add-ons for Firefox with similar function are still considered lawful, there is no solid reason to oppose this feature.
  • Using multi thread download similar to Internet Download Manager, the browser is supposed to download at just the same speed as Internet Download Manager, however there are reports of cases where it failed to perform up to expectation, because the actual acceleration depends on the bandwidth of the Internet, and the speed at which the server sends files.
