I've heard they're better for pollinators, are more drought resistant, and are easier to maintain.

It's hard to see a downside.

Has anyone here made the change? How'd it go?

I seeded microclover in a portion of my lawn that was torn up by construction. It look and worked great. I dig the micro variety because of the low height.
