    If you have an organization that requires salespeople to go into the field and your organization is mid-sized, then I recommend Tact.ai for your salespeople. It is not possible to carry laptops when they are out in the field but it is possible to carry an iPad or phone. This makes their tasks easy and reduces considerable time wasted on administrative activities and increases productivity at the same time.

    Virtual assistants at work are still new features and have a lot to improve. 
    The more features we have, the more we want new features.
    In small environments we have "noise" between virtual assistants, making use inappropriate.
    But in more distributed environments it is very good.
    We still have a lot to learn (both, us and our Alexas).

    • Could have a feature for group chats.
    • Alexa has some problems hearing nearby voices.
    • Website suggestions are irrelevant sometimes (should have user evaluation functionality for the answer, improving accuracy).

    The Salesforce app sucks and so it's not useful to do the searches that we need.

    We looked at two other alternatives: Google Nest and Apple. But Alexa already has popular devices that many people on the team already had in their homes. And it would be easier to integrate into the professional environment. The cost of Amazon products is also much lower, which makes the product more competitive.
