Particle effects take to long to render out. With layer rendering you can get glowing highlights on your characters, glowing neon tubs, glowing lights, glowing anything. anything its a lot faster than particles cause all your rendering out is matte passes. Then you tweak it in a third party program such as Combustion or Adobe After effects. You have the most finite control of the finial outcome of your animation. Because you can set the color and how much glow there is of one specific object. Decide you don't like the color? No problem, all you have to do is change the layer color and BAM! The glow color is changed. You don't have to wait for max to spit out another layer again. And who know how long that will be with countless of particles.
