It is still easier than dumping a black tank. First removing the cap, hoping there is no residue in the pipe, and there always is a wee bit. Draining is no problem. Then when removing the stinky slinky, hoping there is no little dribble left there, and there always is. Then you have to rinse out the pipe, and with the ribs, it never comes perfectly clean. Saying all this, it really is not that much of a bother to me.
However, given that I mostly boondock, the idea of easy dumping without moving the trailer appeals to me. If you are careful, you just replace the cap, I don't remember having to clean the outside of our porta potti, though that was some time ago now. I also love the clean look, as the piping just hanging under a trailer, is less than appealing to me.
I have never used this cassette system and have in the last few days looked at that. I really like the idea of that system. Pulling out and dumping a cassette would be WAY easier than the whole stinky slinky process, plus you get to avoid those stupidly long lines that often queue at dumping stations.
