Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Copilot

Microsoft Copilot became the go to tool when using the Microsoft office suite. It helps with Excel spreadsheets and formatting PowerPoints. It is great to automate some functions on outlook and take notes on Teams. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it is not that good for coding anymore. The competition took over and I think Microsoft Copilot is now way behind of other tools from OpenAI, Claude and xAI

Pros

  • Automate Excel spreadsheets
  • Format PowerPoints
  • Automate Outlook

Cons

  • Coding
  • Integration with non-Microsoft tools
  • Better knowledge base
  • Lost time using it while coding
  • For me, results are unreliable
  • In my experience, can't handle big tasks
For a while I think they had a great tool whit the advantage of being integrated with Visual Code, a tool that everyone was using. The market was theirs. Unfortunately, in my experience, the results were so inconsistent and basically wrong that I think would be best just code yourself or ask for simple tasks like giving a simple template for some function.
I think It lost the race for now. I don't think Microsoft will keep investing on it since we have better tools outside their environment. In my opinion, Microsoft Copilot is not even in the benchmark tools and in the race for AGI.
I think Microsoft is way behind and Microsoft Copilot suffered the lack of investment like the one made by its competitors.

Do you think Microsoft 365 Copilot delivers good value for the price?

No

No

Did Microsoft 365 Copilot live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Microsoft 365 Copilot go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft 365 Copilot again?

No

In my experience, if you're using within the Microsoft office suite, it has the best integration. The usability is great and the user has to put little effort to get a task done.
On the other hand, in my experience, coding within Visual Code is unreliable and the results are not consistent. You can't use with different programming languages and ask for complex tasks. Pitty because I think the VS integration is great.
