What differentiates Appium from other similar products?
Appium stands out by being open-source, cross-platform, and language-flexible, letting you test iOS, Android, and Windows apps with one API—without modifying the app.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite aspect of Appium is its flexibility to write tests in any major programming language while supporting both iOS and Android from a single framework.
What do you dislike most about this product?
What I dislike most about Appium is that it can be slow and complex to set up, with frequent flakiness in tests, especially when handling mobile gestures or device-specific issues.

I had recommend Appium if you need cross-platform mobile testing with language flexibility, but be prepared to invest time in setup, infrastructure, and handling test flakiness especially for complex mobile interactions.
