Grinder is easy to dial in to get the right shot. I use it daily for Americanos. The hot water dispenser is also great for tea.
It's been a workhorse.
Pro has a display for changing minor settings and letting you know when to do maintenance. It also has timers that help for pulling shots etc.
Touch is like a pro but the smart features are bumped up to help steam and make drinks.

If your Pro doesn't come with a dosing cup then you have the oldest version. You can get the dosing funnel for free if you ask their customer service line. That's how I got mine.

I have the Barista Pro still. I converted the hopper into a single dose so I wasn't wasting beans because they go stale quicker. After a year I decided was tired of the bean loss due to retention from grinder and upgraded to a standalone grinder.
That said, if you're looking for best cost and quality with Breville, I'd go with a Bambino Plus and separate grinder. If you're looking at ease of cleaning the Pro is nice. I don't see the benefit of the touch personally. The real upgrade is going to a dual boiler so you can steam and pull shots at the same time, but that's considerably more.
My setup was $450 for themachine and $250 for my grinder, Turin df-54

On the subject, I had this machine for two years before upgrading to Rocket Espresso Giotto V. The machine works well, can get a decent shot of espresso when dialed in well - its grinder being the weak point. I think getting a cheaper (Bambino Plus) machine with a better grinder (Baratza sette when on sale) is a better option - which also gives you the opportunity to upgrade the machine should you choose down the road.
