What differentiates GitHub Copilot from other similar products?

Synchronicity with Github

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I think its ability to learn the repo structure and have that context captured when giving suggestions are amazing.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There's nothing really as it's priced very fairly. For its use case in software development i think it satisfies.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

There's only one other competitor that I know of in this space which is Codeium. I'd say think through if you already have a proprietary license with Github then you're just better off adding it on and having robust tech support.
