I've been using DNF for a year or so primarily. The one gripe that I have is that DNF tends to avoid giving useful information with broken packages. A required package version isn't available? Yum will print out tons of information on which package failed, what version is installed, and what version is available through yum. On the other hand, DNF just gives up without any useful output. Absolutely no information that there was a package conflict, much less what the details are. With Fedora embracing community repositories through COPR, the default packaging tool absolutely needs to present this information to users.
If package conflicts with the local package, without this info, will never be solved. Update of one of the conflicting package can be more important then the other.
