Now my wife can use it and I don't have to bring my bike in from the garage. No incline but I honestly think that is overrated. It's also not the same geometry as my bike. No worries here, I still make gains/maintain just fine. Zwift works without issue. So from someone who's never used this trainer, no benefit and I say you're better off with an indoor trainer (for very close to the same price).
Edit:
And would you look at that, the same trainer I have is on SD:

You have to use the app qdomyos-zwift to link to zwift but once you do it works great. If you have power meter pedals (maybe even crank arms would work), I'd suggest calibrating the app with the real watt reading.
Also once you get bit by the Zwift bug, you'll want to do the Alpe du Zwift and other KOM/QOMs and you'll really want the incline to make it realistic. Alpe du Zwift has an avg incline of 8.5% with some parts going up to 14. Yes you can lower the difficulty that will smooth it out, but it's not going to be as close to real life. If you're just training and using it to get fit, any trainer will do for that matter.

A more specific benefit: when racing/group riding in Zwift/RGT/etc., the resistance simulation makes it easier to gauge what kind of effort is necessary to stay with the group. I used to rubberband around groups because I would have a hard time predicting and determining the grade.
