I haven't had any of the issues that I have seen reported in the tech press (for example, I don't use Gmail, so I didn't have any issues with Mail, which have apparently been fixed since release). With that said, I find the improvements to be non-trivial.

Calendar is better. I like Finder tabs A LOT and use them extensively. Even though I use 1Password, I find iCloud Keychain to be a useful feature. Having a Maps application built-in is very convenient. There are numerous improvements to Safari.

The bottom line is that it has all been good for me. As they say, YMMV. :-)
