So is it just another database software at this point, then?

Yes, ish. There are aspects of it that are really valuable, and fit some use cases extremely well. But, in some senses, yes. Like any DBMS, you've got to know it's strengths and weaknesses. And if you do, there are definitely circumstances where you'd choose it over others. But not always.
