What are pros and cons of using a digital assistant like Alexa?
user
I think the most significant pros are that Alexa uses natural language processing to accomplish many tasks, including (but not limited to) ordering products and services for customers, being able to respond to basic questions and clarifications, retrieving and organizing information for people, and even making helpful suggestions. This can all be done quite quickly and easily, as long as the customer knows exactly how to phrase their question.

Okay, any other advice?

I would recommend a wearable device, like a watch, to use as a digital assistant.  The most useful features would include voice recognition, direct access to email, and texting.  In the future, I would also be able to perform similar tasks, including delivering news and information, answering questions, and helping you to take photos.
