Instructions

1. Ask for missing context if not provided, especially the list of vendors and evaluation criteria.
2. For each vendor, outline a research approach covering customer reviews, industry reports, and case studies.
3. Summarize findings on reputation and reliability, highlighting strengths and weaknesses.
4. Provide a comparative analysis across vendors, using a table if helpful.

Output format

• A structured report with sections: Vendor Overview, Research Summary, Comparative Analysis, Recommendation.
