The benefits of GIS are endless. I've mentioned quite a few already, but everyone from college students to industry professionals are using Esri ArcGIS. Because it's such a big name, having employees who are familiar with the program's use is a huge asset to pretty much any organization, especially governmental, consulting, research, and similar.

Esri ARCGIS
What do you like best about the product?
This is a tool which provides immense capability to answer tough geospatial questions. Where are the majority of building teardowns in a given city? Do transportation deserts exist in this city? Well, ArcGIS can help you answer these questions by offering an easily route to importing and then analyzing data before you export your results.

ESRI offers a good deal of online tutorials and QA but the program takes a while to become comfortable with. Some programs offered by ESRI are a little more intuitive and have a lower entry threshold, like their online product.
