One big benefit for me is instant backup. I use my iPad a lot for work and have had iCloud syncing since Lion. I have dropped the iPad a couple of times and there is a bit of damage, if not for the security of iCloud I would probably have replaced it as I would be worried about losing data if it failed. With iCloud this is not an issue, everything is instantly backed up.

By the way I installed Mountain Lion on Sat, so far everything is working well, but I have annoyed my wife sending her SMS messages from the computer to her phone using Messages. With a proper keyboard I can finally keep up!
