Its the cheapest power per dollar upgrade you can get, and can be very reliable with the right precautions in place (window switch, fuel pressure safety switch). Although, reliability issues with a supercharger? Did you install yourself? S/C's are generally very reliable, particularly if you aren't running some obscene amount that pushes the car past its limits...

If I were to install Nitrous, I would most likely go with NOS, the brand. Hence my use of 'NOS', the name. But your point is well taken, as my question was intended as 'what do people think of nitrous', not 'what do people think of this particular brand of nitrous'.
I had a Stillen kit on my Maxima (Vortech blower), and it was installed by a performance shop. The same guy who has installed all my 370Z stuff, in fact. The issue I had in particular wasn't with the SC itself. What happened after the SC was installed was an intermittent fuel cut-off issue. I'd step on it and every once in a while, all power would just cut out. If I lifted off the throttle and nailed it again, it'd come back. But it was really annoying. I had the car dyno-tuned after installing the SC and everything. I have no idea what caused that. Maybe there was a problem with the Apexi fuel controller we were using or something. In any case, it's made me apprehensive about going down that route again is all.
