Clockwokmod (CWM) recovery or any custom recovery is the second must do thing for all Android phones users after gaining root access. Why? because an Android phone with custom recovery installed can enable its user do things which cannot be done when on stock recovery mode.
Custom recovery has advanced advantages over stock recovery mode and such advantages includes making proper Nandroid back (backing up of entire Android phone) and making restore afterwards incase something goes wrong while messing around with your Android.
With custom recovery, one can be able make proper wipe/format of Android, install or flash flash-able zip files such as custom roms, fonts, super user.zip, bug fix for some custom roms, etc. All this which cannot be done while on stock recovery.
