For one thing, it was the first tool I discovered that just goes infinitely deep and I can zoom in an out. I was sold instantly. I haven't tried org-mode, but certainly in the year or so I've been using workflowy I've found the mobile app (I use Android) to be an excellent compliment to the web app and I've found the sharing features really handy too when I have a great node in the document I want to share in either a read-only or collaborative way. I've always got very easy access to it and the speed of navigation is fast.
I recently took the time to learn the keyboard shortcuts. That was surprisingly quick, but I'm faster in it already. The search feature just works amazing I reckon. Especially in combination with using tags. Recently I've also taken to putting things in any node where they are relevant and not just in a single place, but the information will be housed in one node as a source of truth and the other nodes just link to that node as each node has a link that you can copy for internal linking within the document.
I just love it. The whole thing just works for me. The only thing I really want as a built in feature is the ability to display images. I read on their blog you can do it by essentially using markdown image tags and a browser extension which parses them and inserts an <img> tag. I think that could be pretty sweet.
