I read a lot on my phone with Moon+ and I sometimes read with a tablet, also using Moon+. I always sync my reading position via Dropbox. I also store books on Dropbox and access them with Moon+. All in all I find it very reliable.
There is one big gotcha with syncing reading positions and this isn't a Moon+ problem but a problem with the whole nature of syncing. If you re-install Moon+ and put the book on board before you've set up syncing via dropbox it starts you at the beginning. Then when you do sync it wants to put your other devices back to the beginning as well.
The solution to this is to set up syncing before you put that book on board. Test it with some other book and when it's working okay put the book you're reading on board and let it sync. When I have to do this I always try to keep another device handy with the book in proper position on it in case something goes wrong. If I mess up I still have my reading position backed up and I can start that device, refuse to sync, close Moon+ and then open it on the newly installed device.
I have the same problem when I reset one of my Kindles with a book I'm reading on them. It's pretty easy to lose my place if I'm not careful. All in all, I find Moon+ to sync much more reliably than the Kindle.
