I agree with Magnus, I think systemd it's nice for desktops and laptops
(specially there because either you hibernate or shutdown, and since
hibernating it's not in the best of the status in Linux ...), and as long
as you don't touch much it's pretty stable, anywhere where you need to be
able to fiddle with it  as much as possible (due to it's known, great list
of bugs) it may not be the best of the choices.
I don't find systemd as bad as people see it ( for me it's a potential
threat , not a direct one ), what I really don't like it's how one of it's
higher developer seem to be so carefree about bugs (and what that means).
