If you have a cab tractor, its a pain moving, as you crawl down, up, move, down, up, dig again.
Some tractors have the right hydraulic flow, some are real slow. You can get pto pump, but extra expense.
A good three point setup has a solid top link that doesnt pivot or move. This locks the backhoe into a stable position and lets it work correctly. Not the bucking bronco as some mention. However, these are much harder to mount as you need to get that stiff top link positioned right. And then so very much pressure is put on the top link, that it becomes hard on the top link bracket of tge tractor, and a smaller tractor it transfers the stress to the middle of the tractor on a weaker central area where the transmission is. Some backhoes need a metal frame to mount safely on some tractors, where the stress gets transferred to the front end by actual frame rails. This adds cost and complexity.
So there are good and bad. But, it beats a shovel!

You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
