Any tips on hackberry?

Big storm the other night, and a neighbors hackberry went down. The tree is about two feet in diameter. I can definitely have some, but is there anything I should know? Does it crack or tear out easily? Examples of hackberry lumber images show a significant color difference between the sapwood and heartwood, but it doesn't look like this particular tree has that distinction.
