Yes. The main benefits for me and my coworkers are speed and automatic fetching of Python interpreter. It's so fast that it's a pleasure to use (same thing could be said about ruff vs. black). And the fact that it downloads the right Python interpreter specified in the project's pyproject.toml means my coworker don't have to care about installing and managing Python versions. They don't even need to have a Python installed in the first place.
Otherwise, it works pretty much like Poetry. Unfortunately Poetry is not standards-compliant with the pyproject.toml, so you'll have to rewrite it. There are tools for this, never bothered with them though.
In addition to all the benefits others have mentioned, biggest benefit for me was that with uv you can easily bring your own build system (scikit-build-core in my case). Poetry comes with its own build system that didn't work for my needs and working around that was a massive pain and quite fragile. With uv I can use the build system that works best for me. On the whole uv is less opinionated than poetry. By default it will do sensible things, but if that thing doesn't work in your particular weird case, it is much easier to make uv work for you than poetry. Poetry gets very angry if you try to hold it wrong.
