### "Fun ...but not yet practical."

January 8, 2019

3.0

Pros

It is very fun! I was taking pictures of almost everything in the office! It almost never got the search correct. So, I decided to use the forward-facing camera and that turned out to be even more fun. It started comparing me to celebrities.

Cons

If it were more accurate, I could see some very useful business application. I even searched my Apple Watch, but it deduced that it was a shotgun. ...Maybe because it was an Apple product on Microsoft software.

### "Bing Visual Search"

March 5, 2019

4.0

Overall, a great app that only promises to get better.

Pros

The Bing Visual Search is easy to use and mostly ready to go. In my experience, Bing always brought back better and more relevant search results using the standard Bing engine, and now Microsoft is applying that same thorough approach to a visual platform.

Cons

The app frequently crashes mid-search and also seems a bit laggy, although that could just be my hardware.

### "Pleasant surprise "

March 27, 2019

4.0

it’s a pleasant surprise and i had fun using bing visual search.

Pros

It's good for shopping, cooking even traveling etc... At first i was skeptic since im mostly Google user and i thought that bing wouldn't be good enough and that i will get a lot of wrong results but that was not the case here.

Cons

when i used bad quality pictures i didn't get right results in most cases. Google handles this a bit better.

### "Outdoes other search engines with this feature."

April 16, 2019

4.0

The tutorials are very good and, before you know it you realize just how cool and useful visual search is. With Google, it is okay, but Bing Visual Search is far more user friendly, and visually superior.

Pros

The interface is pleasant and easy to use. The ease of use and decent results make it outshine th eother search engines.

Cons

Realistically I have no complaints. I think recognition of low res pictures will improve as the platform evolves.

### "Bing Search"

February 13, 2019

3.0

Typically I will use Google as it seems to offer better selections when searching

Pros

Typically this is the default search engine found on many o the computers I use so it comes up automatically.

Cons

Unfortunately this search engine does not seem to bring up and many options as Google

### "Great for Shopping!"

December 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

Shopping is one of my favorite past times. This allows me to take a picture of something I see in a store or while out and about. I am able to find products that are the same or similar very quickly. This allows me to always find what I want without the hassle of spending hours looking.

Cons

Sometimes I get non relevant results or it takes longer than I would like to load.

### "Visual Search through analytics"

March 13, 2019

4.0

I had a good experience in using this product and it helped me find what I was looking for easily through an image search.

Pros

Being able to use the phone to instantly search for products just through images is brilliant, I used Bing Visual Search and found some of the clothing that i really wish to buy when browsing through web pages.

Cons

Sometimes I am not able to find the correct item that i was searching for. Could be better improved.

### "Bing Visual Search Use"

April 24, 2019

5.0

I've only used it a little bit for like one day, but I love it. I do fashion design so I can find lots of pictures to help with inspiration.

Pros

I love how you can use one picture that you already have to try and find others that are similar. Just upload one and it searches millions of pictures for others like it.

Cons

There really isn't anything to not like about this software. It can be used for a lot.

### "Bing pretty cool, but still behind Google"

November 27, 2018

4.0

I found the program to be pretty fair, however the Google version just seems to have more of everything. The foundation is here but the real opportunity here is in the details.

Pros

Simply take a photo and let Bing do the rest! Great photo processing from the internet to what you snap a picture of on your mobile. Speed is very good and the results are almost spot-on. Very handy tool when you need a quick response.

Cons

Unlike Google, you can't talk to it, so that is a minus for me. The details I find in results could be a lot more detailed and improved. I also do not see any type of privacy mode, which could be a concern to some users. Image tagging is also non-existent. I think some sort of barcode reader would also be a big plus for future releases.

### "For work and fun"

August 31, 2019

5.0

You can search for similar pictures without having to describe it as some pictures can be really hard to describe. Great tool for fun

Pros

You can search for similar pictures to the ones you already have or you have just take. I love the tool that search what fames person you look like

Cons

Describing what you are looking for is in most cases probably more accurate than to compare to the existing pictures

### "Not so Good also Not so Bad."

December 17, 2018

4.0

Used it when I owned a Microsoft phone.

Pros

It offers fast processing compare to other similar software. Take a picture and search it will give you more relevant results. Best when you want to search about and not sure about it's name.

Cons

Features are less compared to google. Needs lot of improvement.

### "A new technology that allows for a new kind of searching"

November 5, 2019

4.0

While Bing Visual Search has not yet become mainstream in our company, its personal use is undeniable. I recently used it to identify a breed of cat; this powerful ability can easily be extrapolated to unusual workplace needs such as identifying pieces of unknown technology or solving unfamiliar problems.

Pros

This product is very useful outside of a business context; it allows you to take a picture and find whatever is in the picture. Bing is already on par or above Google in quality and relevance in my opinion, so adding this function places them a step ahead.

Cons

I haven't yet found as many business problems that can be solved with this function; it seems more of a personal benefit than one that would benefit my corporation as a whole.

### "Bing Visual Search"

December 10, 2019

5.0

It’s a great tool for doing reverse image searches.

Pros

It’s a really excellent search tool when fact-checking actually. I run an image through it along with tineye and google images now.

Cons

Honestly there’s not much to complain about. Maybe the layout of the advanced search could be a little cleaner but it’s still easy to figure out.

### "Fun, different way to search."

March 5, 2019

5.0

Pros

It is not everyday that I need to search an image online, but when I do Bing Visual Search is a very good search engine, providing very accurate results most of the times.

Cons

I haven't had any problems with this software. Sure, every now and then provides some results that are off, but that's just once in a while.

### "Okay product"

July 7, 2020

5.0

Good product, does what it needs to do, but not my favorite

Pros

It’s a good concept and works relatively well. Maybe I’m just spoiled by google but there’s something here I don’t love and don’t default to using this often

Cons

It isn’t as easy to use as I would like. I mean. It’s okay for what it does but I prefer google honestly

### "A good alternative image search"

April 19, 2021

5.0

This is a reliable alternative to google image search and sometimes can deliver better results.

Pros

The ease of use and quick results are the highlight of this software. I find it useful when I'm not satisfied with a google image search and need to find better results.

Cons

Search results don't always represent what was requested.

### "Amazing!"

January 23, 2019

5.0

Pros

It's incredible what Visual Search is able to do. I really enjoy being able to quickly find information just from a simple image search. I use it all the time to solve math problems that I wrote down.

Cons

The AI doesn't always pick up on exactly what you want it to
