Azure Bot Service vs QnA Maker: What are the differences?

What is Azure Bot Service? Intelligent, serverless bot service that scales on demand. The Azure Bot Service provides an integrated environment that is purpose-built for bot development, enabling you to build, connect, test, deploy, and manage bots, all from one place.

What is QnA Maker? Build, train and publish a simple question and answer bot based on FAQ URLs (by Microsoft). Compatible across development platforms, hosting services, and channels, QnA Maker is the only question and answer service with a graphical user interface—meaning you don’t need to be a developer to train, manage, and use it for a wide range of solutions.

Azure Bot Service and QnA Maker belong to "Chatbot Platforms & Tools" category of the tech stack.
