In and of itself? Nothing. With tools linked to it, like the stable
and well supported "autofs", ideally configured with a relevant and
protected CIFS credential file? A great deal. I find autofs very handy
for network shares that might fail at any time.

I would most certainly *not* attempt to craft a replacement for autofs
out of systemd init scripts. That way lies a lot of the problems with
systemd.
