Installed it on my home iMac last night, and will see how it goes before diving in on the studio Mac. So far, so good. Nothing in particular stands out, although the login via Apple Watch is kinda nice. The universal clipboard has potential of being useful too.

if you have modern apps all updated you should have no problems. only users with legacy apps may encounter some issues

if you have an anti virus program installed, disable it before you install sierra.... it caused me all kinds of grief this morning.

El Cap was super solid for me even with loads of third-party stuff and on older hot-rodded 2010 hardware, but I run a very tight ship and know what I'm doing.
Yosemite wasn't as good, mostly because of the "DiscoveryD" process, possibly the worst mistake I've ever suffered from Apple. And it didn't run as fast as El Cap.
So far Sierra seems really solid, with some minor cosmetic issues with a few apps. The new flagship features aren't really my cup of tea either, but there are lots of little things that are welcome.
I'd still recommend running any available updates for any non-Apple software you have before upgrading. Also doing a thorough backup before any major OS upgrade should be standard. Be mentally prepared for something do go wrong, don't upgrade in the middle of a big project, etc.
