I am curious why Cleric vs Shaman or Druid. Other than Complete Heal, aren't their healing capabilities the same. Will Complete Heal be used on pets or casters? Rez while nice, not really a consideration. Buffs, I think Shaman/Druid offer more or equal. And Utlity Shaman/Druid easily win. So to me it comes down to is Complete Heal more valuable than the utility Shaman/Druid has. Unless I am missing something a Cleric brings to a group.

I mained a cleric in live and my brother an enchanter.
Cleric get the same spell level heals a little bit sooner than dru/shm. However, you will indeed see use from CH for the charmed pet from time-to-time, lvl 39+. possibly the mage pets too; but more likely the charmed pet. CH is hand's down the most efficient way to heal all that lost HP... and if you can keep the charmed pet(s) churning, so will the exp/loot.
That being said, their are other ways, too... Like drop charm / mez and let the NPC heal itself (npc's mezzed used to get like 5% hp back per tick in live or something , i assume its same here)
druid/shaman get the same heals at the same levels. Shaman (IMO) is a more efficient healer than druid because of Canni; otherwise their heal ability is equal.
a dru/shm can probably main heal your group all the way.. but a Cleric will make a huge difference on the high priority targets in the late-game; whereas a dru/shm might struggle to heal through the same encounter.
the main thing I would take into consideration if I was in your shoes, is understand that Cleric can be BORING. literally All you're really good at is healing.... at least if you go dru/shm you have access to their other respective utilities.
just my 2c.
