Overall he was good. The Chinese were dirt poor and were colonized by Europe. Mao and the implementation of his ideology freed China from foreign control, and improved lives for a billion people. Unfortunately, the communists killed millions of people under Mao during the cultural revolution.
After the neo-liberal reformations of Deng Xiaoping (which dissolved the state-communist system), poverty rose and living standards stagnated.

Did Mao Zedong good?
This is a highly subjective question. Many Chinese harbor a mix of both admiration and disdain for Mao Zedong, believing that he did the country a great deal of good by ending the corrupt rule of the Kuomintang, reforming the feudal system of land ownership, and ending the last vestiges of imperialist control over Mainland China. In this, he has become more of a figure of Chinese nationalism than one of international Socialist revolution. However, the catastrophes of the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution can be laid at his feet. As one ambivalent man once told me, "Mao was clearly a great man, as only a great man can make the sort of mistakes that he did!" My personal judgment is that China today is, in some respects, slightly better off because of Mao and the CCP than it would be today if the KMT had won the civil war, and slightly worse off in others.
