Why Use a Robot Gripper with 3 Fingers?

Seeing all these robot grippers out there you may wonder, what are the advantages relative to the number of fingers presented on the gripper? Well, I would be lying to you if I said that there is one single solution to every robotic problem. The reason why there are a lot of different grippers out there is because there are a super wide range of applications that each does best at. But, if you simply look at the number of fingers on a gripper, what are the advantages of using a gripper that has 3 fingers?
