“Siri is not a search engine technically and it’s not intended to be a replacement for Google.”

MICROSOFT CORTANA

 Cortana: everything you need to know about Microsoft's Siri rival.

To anyone who's played the Halo games, Cortana needs no introduction: she's an advanced artificial intelligence and Master Chief's only real friend.

Cortana is currently the code name for a whole new way of controlling Windows Phone, and in the longer term maybe Windows too.

THE CORTANA INTERFACE

Amazon’s Echo is a curious device, but one that is the first to demonstrate the truly transformative potential of voice-based computing. The hardware is solid, voice recognition is strong and the features it does offer are extremely useful.

ALEXA VIRTUAL ASSISTANT

Google Now is all about easy access and simplicity. When triggering voice commands, you can simply say, "OK, Google…“

and then give your command. Like Siri and Cortana, you can look up info online, but Google Now is also good at delivering personal recommendations based on your search history and preferences

Let’s Evaluate Using Five Criteria
