I have had a CT for two seasons and love the consistency and quality of the workouts. I had a trainer and an SRM prior but doing VO2 interval, Microburst or Tempo you always had the ability to fall off on power or effort. The CT does not allow you to do that. It keeps you where you are suppose to be training at. Because the quality is good you don't have to do more. An hour long tempo ride produces much better results, (IMO), that a two hour tempo outside with all the stopping, starting, up and down grades. Here are some examples of the precise workouts you can get from a CT.
VO2 Intervals
ME Intervals
