Amazon Alexa for Business vs. Google Assistant

Virtual assistants at work are still new features and have a lot to improve. 
The more features we have, the more we want new features. 
In small environments we have "noise" between virtual assistants, making use inappropriate. 
But in more distributed environments it is very good.
We still have a lot to learn (both, us and our Alexas). 

1. For quick timing and scheduling calls - As I can just say, ok google, I want to have a call with {teammate's name} today, can you find a. time of 30mins for me sometime this week?
2. Can you answer on the design pattern which Netflix uses for next video

Incentivized

• Communication between people on the team.
• Interactive personal assistant.
• Better workspace management.

• To-do lists and task boards so I can work on it better, and can ask quickly on what I need to do.
• Saves time and increases efficiency - I can ask and can answer relevant answers
• Set-up meetings - quickly scheduling and checking for time which suits all people

Incentivized

• Could have a feature for group chats.
• Alexa has some problems hearing nearby voices.
• Website suggestions are irrelevant sometimes (should have user evaluation functionality for the answer, improving accuracy).

• It switches on without even calling sometimes, which makes me little insecure
• Has few trouble with hindi accent, tough for me (indian)

We looked at two other alternatives: Google Nest and Apple. But Alexa already has popular devices that many people on the team already had in their homes. And it would be easier to integrate into the professional environment. The cost of Amazon products is also much lower, which makes the product more competitive.

I chose this because it was easier for me and can be accessed via mobile and laptop too because it enables cross device support because it helps in adding more depth to my life, and can help me save tons of time.

Incentivized

• Difficulties with technology integration.
• Identify all possible uses.
• We still lost a lot of time making new settings.

• positive because it saves my time and improves productivity
• I can do quick research based on my thoughts and even asking it to write notes
