I've been using it for 6 years or so in a DIY reactor with my ATO primarily as a pH booster as I also use a Ca Reactor. On its own it wouldn't meet my Calcium Carbonate needs but it does have its benefits and its inexpensive and easy to use this way. There is nothing I can say about it that isn't covered thouroughly in this article:

Not Just Kalkwasser
I use kalk, but it's only part of my arsenal. I use it in addition to two-part. I don't use it as part of my top-off because the evaporation rates vary too much. I add saturated (using a stirrer) kalkwasser via a timer, and two part via dosers. Always the same amounts for all additives. In summer I have a smart ATO adding RODI water separately, while keeping the saturated kalkwasser addition the same year round.
It works for me....
