According to the product specialist

Pros
Because of its closed-loop brake unit, the Booster produces less noise than other wheel-powered bike trainers.
Skyliner front wheel support to properly set up the bike is included.
Can be used without mains power.
The Tacx Flow Smart measures your speed, power and cadence.
The Tacx Smart trainer can be linked to cycling software such as Zwift, TrainerRoad and Sufferfest.
When you're not using the turbo trainer, you can fold it up into a compact size.
You can view its data on your bike computer, smartphone, sports watch or tablet.
Cons
Use a trainer tyre, because a regular tyre will wear out quickly on the trainer.
No ANT+ or Bluetooth Smart to pair the trainer to your phone, tablet, or PC.
Without a trainer tyre, your rear tyre can wear out quickly.
You can bike even more realistically with a Direct Drive trainer.
A 29-inch wheel will only fit with a special Tacx trainer tyre.
