Positives:

I don't have to really do much with it. Affiliates just register as a free account with Clickbank. I pay a one time 49.95 fee. That's all...plus the merchant fees they charge. I use it for purchasers of my book, also for less hassle. I use a regular merchant account for my other store, but its fees are really bad.

It was a complete "outsource" solution for my credit card collection and affiliate management with a very low upfront cost.

Negatives:

Not a lot of tracking with it, but I really don't need tracking right now.

It is only a one-tier program. I wish there was a two-tier program for affiliates.
