We've had a couple of older COM-based applications that target Windows 5.1 (2003/XP) platforms fail unpredictably with it on later operating systems. Whether these are just badly behaved applications or compilers or a faulty design in EMET we don't know as it's all closed source and when you're left with a steaming minidump (because you can't catch these unless you use ADplus) it's not easy to work out why a process failed from that if EMET shot it.
As for the better than nothing, yes until your phone starts ringing like a cheesy sci-fi flick because half your MSMQ sinks are crashing...
My comment above probable shouldn't have been: no you shouldn't use it until you've soak tested your applications on it.
