• {{vendors}}: The vendors offering these products (if different from product names).
• {{business_needs}}: Your organization's specific needs or use case (e.g., remote support, ticketing system).
• {{feature_details}}: Any feature lists or specifications you have (optional).

Instructions

1. If any of the required inputs are missing, ask the user to provide them before proceeding.
2. Analyze the features of each product or service, focusing on the user's stated business needs.
3. Create a detailed comparison, highlighting similarities and differences.
