It's honestly one of my favorite all purpose fonts, very clean, but has much more personality than other san-serif fonts like Helvetia or Noto.

It does, but because of that I feel it needs to be used a bit more sparingly. Helvetica (Neue) you can use the entire document; Segoe seems like it works best for headings and such, but maybe I’m wrong and someone does it well.
