have an/the edge

To have an advantage (over someone or something); to be in a more favorable position (than someone or something else). While we can recommend both computers in terms of performance, the laptop from Spikerosoft definitely has the edge in terms of affordability. Now that we have George, I think we definitely have the edge on the other team. But we have an edge on all the other companies out there—our vast resources. That's how we ensure we have the best and most up-to-date information.
