Best part is, it has no dependency on the OS of the mobile, it can be any, android or iOS.

It has very good web-driver compatibility, selenium web driver is the best integration as a web driver to connect the appium with. it also supports different framework for testing and almost works on mobile platforms. Really helps the developers as well as automation testers to configure and even can learn the features at the same time. Connectivity between the servers and Xcode's tool during execution is really appreciative.
