comparison will show that you can’t really beat having a real life virtual assistant. This is one area where technology can’t replace the real thing. I don’t say this simply because I’m the owner of a Virtual Assistant company; I speak from first hand experience.

  • Siri can’t add contacts when you’re speaking to someone for the first time
  • There are complaints about Siri frequently being down or not working

These are all problems that you won’t have to deal with, if you have an actual or real, living and breathing virtual assistant. I’d love to know your thoughts on what a real life VA can do that Siri can’t. I’ll respond to all blog comments personally.
