| Capability Summary | Lets you open the full search page from the top global search bar and search available organizational bots by keyword in the Bots tab. | Microsoft 365 Copilot Search helps users search people, chats, meetings, files, and other organizational content, with filters and recommendations. | Google Cloud Search searches across Google Workspace content and third-party data sources, with filters and suggestions. | Notion search covers workspace content, recent pages, and filters; with Notion AI, it can also search connected apps. | Adobe Acrobat focuses on searching text in PDFs and across multiple PDF files. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: the entry is directly available from the top global search bar in WPS, and the workflow includes a dedicated Bots tab for bot lookup. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on organizational content search and does not describe a dedicated bots tab for this workflow. | Compared with WPS: the official capability is broader enterprise search and usually depends on organizational service setup. | Compared with WPS: the official workflow is centered on workspace knowledge search, while cross-app search depends on Notion AI and connectors. | Compared with WPS: the official capability is document search in PDFs rather than organizational bot search. |

Overall Conclusion
If your goal is to find organizational bots from inside WPS, WPS provides a shorter path because the search entry and the Bots tab are part of the same workflow. The other official products focus more on enterprise content, workspace knowledge, or PDF search, so their scope is different from bot discovery inside WPS.
