I don't know anybody in the field who thinks that 23andme, on its own or in collaborations, has made any truly signficant scientific contributions. I haven't read all their papers, but I've read some, and have talked to their scientists extensively, and I really haven't heard of anything that is strikingly important that could be solely attributed to 23andme.

Their relative finder feature seems to work pretty well.
