We use it.  There is a Peek authority command that lets you restrict access
to certain users' (ie Payroll) screens.

It's -very- nice to be able to watch a user fumbling their way through a
screen and being able to say, "Now see where it says 'F17-Display Error
Messages?'  OK-- press F17."

You can not see a key-by-key copy of the user's screen, but you can update
your copy of their screen by pressing F5, or by setting the auto-refresh.
You get an updated copy whenever the user presses Enter.

We've used it for some remote training.  Users sign on, the trainer is in a
conference room with a bunch of terminals.  Everyone's on a conference
call.  As the users step through the training, the instructor can watch
what they're doing and offer guidance.  It's a wonderful tool for
eliminating those plane ticket bills.
