    It is well suited for any sales department, to try to get ahold of the person you are trying to get ahold of. Playbooks has increased the number of decision makers that I can get ahold of on a day to day basis. This tool would probably be less suited for people that do not have calls to make outside of the company.

    I highly recommend its usage in Teams meetings to prepare a session transcript, meeting minutes,
    next steps and recognize speech by person. Also within the meeting recording, there is separation between the people talking at the time. The Copilot image creation is very accurate and useful to
    customize my PowerPoint presentations and other documents

    • Good analysis of the ticket system at the service desk, so that this can be anticipated properly
    • For the management of IT environments, quick examples of scripting for desired solutions
    • For consultants and managers, they co-pilot a technical report into language understandable to a non-technical client, including a visual summary.

    Cons
    Aurea
    • The ability to filter specific plays or pieces of information so that it's more user-friendly for the overall organization. Essentially, more room to customize the organization of accounts and how you're working them.
    • The initial onboarding process of accounts results in high levels of tasks - the ability to break these down in an easier way to help with time management would be helpful.

    • The quality of image generation in Microsoft Copilot could be improved. Compared to other AI platforms, Copilot's images often fall short in quality and frequently contain typos.
    • When generating agents and chatbots, Microsoft Copilot currently doesn't appear to support file download functionality.
    • The email reply function is useful, but the responses can sometimes be overly elaborate. It would be helpful to have more options for adjusting the tone.

    Usability

    It only took a day to get comfortable with Playbooks. The ease of use and overall usability is fantastic in the sense that it's pretty straightforward once you get enough repetitions in the tool. I also like all of the videos and resources available if support is needed

    I give this rating because of the utilization I do with the product and the level security it provides which is very good. In our organization it is best suited as we have all other Microsoft tools with us. The offering made by Microsoft is great, I gave 9 out of 10 as sometimes it hallucinates as well.

    The Insidesales Playbooks is by far more intuitive and organized than other programs I have used in the past. Unfortunately I have not had experience with other products that are available out there. I would hope we will see more improvements from the ISDC tool as we all use it more and provide feedback

    We needed a tool where secure data was not submitted to servers to process as we have some health care related data to keep private. We also needed to be able to test this tool without committing first to see if it is a fit and Microsoft provided this easily to us.
