• Sometimes freezes and gets too slow.
Cortana
• Cortana is one more widely known virtual assistant for
Windows, iOS, and Android devices.
• Its most distinctive feature is the well-designed
mechanism of interacting with users – Cortana makes
good jokes, responds in a witty way to trivial questions,
and some of its answers can even be in the form of a
poem.
10
Cortana
Advantages
• A wide range of available tasks;
• Deep integration with Microsoft Office apps;

• Thanks to the efforts of the best development minds on
Google’s team, this iOS and Android assistant can
analyze your emails, search history, give directions, and
interact with other apps efficiently (and those apps don’t
necessarily have to be Google ones).
• The availability of Google Now mobile versions for iOS
and Android is a huge advantage as well.
14
Google Assistant
Advantages
• A huge range of tasks that can be fulfilled
• Well-integrated with Google services
• Integration with third-party apps.
