  • Best feature of cortana that i like is cross platform availablity, even on being other platforms like android and iOS cortana can do all assistant related important tasks.

    • I definitely don't want to use a personal assistant that forces me to use a particular ecosystem in the future and this is why I really like Cortana (on top of other unique features). It would feel like using the "free" email account provided by your internet provider... Thanks but no thanks...
