As an amateur who used it for a year before switching to FL Studio, I could only recommend it as a way to explore DAW-based music creation for free before switching to something paid and better.
It's just not feature complete enough, missing basic features like VST3 support (or VST support at all in the Mac version,) time signature changes, sample manipulation capabilities, or in-DAW recording, and it's built-in effects plugins are overly hard to use. I've also seen claims it's rendering engine is flawed and causes a minor distortion effect, but I can't verify that myself.
