The only honest answer can be to test with your sheet. Anything else is a guess at best. We have used poi with very complex sheets, yet known it to fail on a particular cell for a simple sheet. All we can say is, its getting better all the time, and if it passes your tests, go for it.
As a side note, let me also mention, that for writing worksheets, having poi pass your tests if a safe bet to use it in production, since most likely you are sure of how it is being used. Reading is more risky, since you might be hit with random sheets, and you will have to make a more careful analysis of the risk with specific regard to your application and your users. In summary, many of us use POI regularly in production both for reading and writing, but YMMV.
