Considered Both Products
Google Gemini
Chose Google Gemini
Gemini is the best I've used in terms of simplicity to prompt and understanding my prompts amongst a wide array of use cases.
Chose Google Gemini
Google Gemini does pretty well against ChatGPT in regards to the information sourced and accuracy. Gemini's user interface is about the same, however I find it a bit cleaner, especially the way information is outputted. We use a lot of the Google Suite products, so access to …
Chose Google Gemini
I like the fact that Gemini gives you 3 options of possible answers, and if they don't fit your needs, you are able to have other 3, until you get the best result.
I have seen that the results that Gemini provides are more accurate than others. It also evolving frequently and …
Microsoft 365 Copilot
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
I think why my organization is preferring Microsoft Copilot is because of the wide rage of other linked products within it the way how workspace works is something which attracts the organization to go with copilot. Why Copilot over Claude is because of the security.
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
Our organization runs on Microsoft so it's not much of a choice, but we do utilize the other AIs in the other tools as needed / more convenient.
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
they work beautifully in their own ecosystems. since my organization mostly uses Microsoft products, Microsoft Copilot is user to navigate compared to Gemini
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
Since Microsoft Copilot can be integrated into Microsoft 360, we think that Copilot has the advantage.
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
Microsoft Copilot is a serious competitor to ChatGPT in the corporate world, due to its heavy and well implemented integration across the Microsoft 365 suite. It produces comparable results, but provides data security, controls, customisation and options that ChatGPT can't …
Chose Microsoft 365 Copilot
I love Bing Copilot because it is integrated to Bing, I can have the answers easily using my phone or my laptop.
The answers show the links just in case one needs to have further information about a topic, and somehow the tool feels friendlier than the other tools such as Google…

Gemini is fantastic for receiving quick answers to questions where accuracy is not paramount. It is great for brainstorming ideas. It is also fantastic for analysing large swathes of unformatted data and finding correlations. Gemini can also transcribe handwriting and audio files making it excellent for formative assessment. It can also now create Google Slides which is great for lesson planning. Gemini is only as good as the prompts you provide it with though so you must remember to be exact with your prompts to get the best outputs.

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

Pros
Google
  • The new image editing functionality surprised me
  • In general, file loading is better than in other AI programs
  • I think it's somewhat faster than other AI programs, or at least that's the impression it usually gives
  • Features like canvas and deep research are very interesting

  • 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
Google
  • Faces in generated images can be kind of scary looking, deformed.
  • When asking for specific text in an image, it often generates funky randomly spelled text instead.
  • Tried a bulk image search with uploaded png files to find the same images online and the links it provided were 404 errors instead.

  • 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
Google
It's standard usability interface - no problems or challenges using it. I do prefer Claude still because of the different options/modes you can toggle on and off. I don't think Gemini has those options. It's a great daily companion for quick problem solving but not great for larger projects or conversations

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.

Gemini seems very simple to use, veyr similar to ChatGPT, I wish they did have a capability such as ChatGPT projects one, so one can separate topics easily, it's very customizable, where I believe it defeats the others is that, is already very simple to use all of Google ecosystem, such as Drive, docs, sheets and else

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.
