Answer:

You can argue both ways, but here are a few reasons for each:

Benefit:

Introduced foreign crops and animals that hadn't been previously existing
Sparked an economy and trading routes between Europe and the Americas
Because of the introduction of cash crops to the Americans, the American agricultural industry was becoming a big part of the economy

Became a detriment:

Alongside the crops and animals being brought over, many diseases traveled and made their way into America, killing a generous amount of people
Malaria was one of the major diseases brought over
The Colombian Exchange was also bringing settlers into the Americas which pushed out the preexisting Native settlers; this led to many major conflicts down the road
