Article on how the new regulatory scheme has been fairly successful but also puts forward some good suggestions for how to clear up some of the existing ambiguities to encourage greater participation in the crowdfunding marketplace.

Based off of this article it sounds like Reg A+ despite its ambiguities is generally having a positive impact on entrepreneurs ability to grow and fund their new business. However, I have come across some other articles that have raised additional issues that make Reg A+ appear to not actually be doing much good at all. For example some argue that Reg A+ comes with high reporting costs that the new business normally would have to pay and an burdensome amount of disclosure requirements to avoid the increased scrutiny. In additions others argue that Reg A+ puts too much pressure on the new companies and distorts their business model. Therefore it appears to me that this is helping a small niche of startups but is not actually going to have that big of an impact on the startup world in general.
