Up until recently I considered it an inferior version of Charter due for various reasons, but since then there have been improvements to kerning, line spacing [and more](https://software.sil.org/charis/v7changes/) recently. I've included **NV Charis** as part of the collection now, too. Charis is fully licensed under the OFL license, which may be more desirable if you care about that sort of thing.
