You do have more control using other companies as far as email set-up, installable applications and site types. Depending on your needs it may be beneficial to move but for a basic site it may be best to just stay with GoDaddy. The control panel is difficult to use with GoDaddy and they'll often charge you to add an additional email address whereas services like MediaTemle and EZWeb Hosting make it easy (and often free) to do these things.

Do you think it's a wise choice for us, and is it really that important which server we use? I might bring this up to the owner, but I don't want to unless I know a little bit more about how Godaddy.com may NOT benefit us.
