Godaddy used to have a sucky control panel, which didn't even work with firefox. They have updated it about six months ago, and I haven't had any problems since.
They are the cheapest and the best in my opinion. I've had trouble with Network Solutions, Register.com and other big names. They just don't know how to do it right. I've had issues where I needed to point the name servers back to them to make DNS changes, and you couldn't actually make any record changes until the host records point to them, and at that point the domain has no records and doesn't resolve. Never had issues with godaddy. The only thing that I can think of is that if you do a transfer, and for some reason it doesn't go through, they don't refund you until you call in. They also have an API that costs $250 per year if you want to register and manage domains through the API.
