I'd say it's extremely helpful anywhere. We enable it on every single port unless there is a specific reason to disable it. Our particularly clueful customers can now submit requests like: "For the system attached to port 1/2/3, please switch to VLAN 456." This ticket gets closed in about 10 seconds. We also run LLDP speakers on our University-controlled workstations so we can see details about the system in "slow lldp neighbor" on the switch. The more LLDP the better, from my perspective.
