Temporary or Permanent
This device can be as permanent or temporary as you choose. It is easy to link or set up to any place that has electric power sources and Wifi. It is portable, but can also function as a permanent addition to your home environment. If Echo is used for multiple functions, several Echo systems can be used to control different rooms in the house.
Cost
An Amazon Echo tower costs approximately $180 on Amazon.com, but the smaller Echo dot ranges from $40-$50. The only major difference between the two models is the power of the speaker, the tower has a much better speaker for listening to music, podcasts, or other audio, but the Dot is also easily paired to a bluetooth speaker and has almost identical functions to that of the tower.
Support Needs
The Echo updates automatically, so maintenance is relatively low after setup. Setup requires some knowledge of computers. Minor troubleshooting may be required after power or internet loss.
