Alexa for Business Pros and Cons

Able to order products with a simple command without needing to search for it along with simple reorder commands. Don’t need my phone book anymore to reach clients, just say call who ever and it calls. My calendar is easy to setup and keeps me notified of important events. Controls my lighting for my office with simple commands. I like the face that Alexa helps out with my meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t like the fact that I have to activate every gesture using the Alexa app, doesn’t always tell you if the app is free or not when activating over the echo itself before activating. Can’t set an alarm more that 24 hrs in advance and can’t set multiple alarms without the Alexa app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
