9 times out of 10 when you present a cheaper alternative I think it's practical, interesting and useful. Coolbot for a small brewery in warm climates are probably an exception. If as you say it's for a back up cooler it may work, but as a primary cooler it doesn't have the BTUs to handle the constant door opens a taproom cooler will face. I have seen numerous examples in NC of breweries pouring pure foam in Summer months and all of them were using Coolbots. Also the breweries I have seen using them tend to burn through home ac unit and have to replace every 4-6 months. Perhaps we have a unique environment here and as a secondary unit it may be fine, but taproom driven spaces I'd buy from the restaurant auctions a traditional cooler.
