The biggest advantage is the amount of power in a given space. Hyd systems typically operate at 2000psi and up, compared to about 80psi for pneumatic. Also, since fluid is non compressible, the moement distance can be linear. Many aircraft, and industrial equipment now use electric servos instead of hydraulics. Biggest problem with hydraulics is leaks. 2nd biggest problem is continuous power consumption to the pump. Lots of air power is used in industry, so it is the easiest way to move or clamp anything, with nothing more than an air cylinder and a valve. Each system has it's place to do different things.

The fire service uses hydraulic systems for many purposes including the jaws of life, aerial ladders, and rams just to name a few.

There are a lot of hydraulic elevators.
Farm crop harvesting equipment uses mechanical actuators driven hydraulically.
Most of the snowplows attached to large trucks are lifted hydraulically.
Garbage collection trucks squash their garbage load hydraulically.

the simpliest industry are the neighborhood car shops/mechanics as they use hydraulic systems to raise cars, clean dirt, or inflate tires.
for big industries, you have the production lines for cars (i.e. factories), transportation industries (air brakes for buses, hydraulic systems on forklifts, etc).
