What capacity are you using it in? Hobbyist? Prototyping? Possible manufacturing? I love the ESP product family and they're in a ton of cheap IoT goods. I think if you're talking about hobbyist stuff, there's no reason not to start with an ESP32. FreeRtos makes scaling your codebase a dream compared to the usual AVR stuff, they're powerful, they can be low-ish power, there's a peripheral for everything, and the IO Matrix is genius (no more worrying about having specific pins open for specific peripherals like I2C). But for production, I don't think ESP is up to the standards of *NXP and TI when it comes to power consumption (although I might be behind on that with the new RISC parts) I also don't think the Wifi stack on the ESP-32 is quite as mature, and if you use off the shelf libraries there are a ton of pitfalls when it comes to reliability But the tooling is great, and there's a ton of activity surrounding them so for me none of those are deal breakers.
