The best part about SBuild was that it's very easy to use, I think because of its simplicity but also due to how well documented everything (including error messages) can be found online or by using google search you'll find all kinds of answers! There aren't many downsides either since there isn’t much customization needed when building Java applications with sbuild/SBT; however if your project needs more customizations then this might not work as expected so make sure what exactly do they need before deciding whether these things will fit into their requirements / budget etc.. It took me less than 5 minutes from downloading & installing packages via apt-get install command line interface until my first successful compile - which normally takes at least an hour without any issues :).
