Does the non-MAS store version offer iCloud sync?

It does not, as far as I know, only MAS Apps have access to iCloud operations, such as access and storage. It's not up to Agile Bits, they just don't have access to iCloud thru non-MAS Apps.

I know. Does the iCloud syncing work well?

Hi, @odysseus.
Although you already know, in addition to Eduardo's answer (thanks!) to your first question @MikeT similarly replied:
iCloud sync is an exclusive feature for apps at Apple's official App Stores. If developers want to support iCloud sync, they have to go through Apple's App Stores.
About your second question, both iCloud and Dropbox syncing have worked very well for the majority of 1Password users. Every cloud-based service has issues which are ultimately the responsibility of the provider to resolve. For example, Apple provides and controls iCloud service so they have to fix any problems with it.
I hope that's helpful!

"For example, Apple provides and controls iCloud service so they have to fix any problems with it." Oh, brother. I've used Dropbox for syncing for years without problems, but I've shied away from iCloud because Apple is notorious for being lackluster in the area of internet services, and there have been near-constant complaints from developers about iCloud sync, in particular the CoreData sync API. Does 1Password use that?
