Does anyone use LLDP? Any caveats?

We are having a new phone system installed by a 3rd party and they're working with me to get switches and things configured (haven't started yet). We are setting up phones on their own VLAN and we're going to be using LLDP so that computers and phones get ports auto-configured for the correct VLAN.

I never heard of LLDP until recently, so I've begun reading my switch manuals. We have Dell PowerConnect 5500 and N3000 series switches.

So far it makes sense but I just wonder if there are any things I need to know to watch out for.
