We're using it at Prime Focus and I've been building a more VFX friendly interface to it. Off topic, but you can have a look here if you want: https://github.com/stephenwilley/sge4vfx - I hope to get more time this (next) year to flesh it out but we've put just over a hundred thousand jobs through it and it's good for our purposes. I'm happy to share some useful settings I've found if you want to mail me off list.
I agree the docs are a mission to find and aren't easy to read when you do.
