If you're looking for a quick way to import, tag and rate your images this may work for you. LR didn't seem to improve the import and build preview function all that much if you're using full sized previews, so if you've got a ton of images to cull through this may be a better option. Or if you're just looking for a decent RAW viewer this could work too.
It's got an interesting "Send to Lightroom 5" function, which I haven't played with. Not sure how that works and if it would play with Lightroom 6/CC, but if it can send a bunch of images tagged and rated to your current LR catalog with no need to import separately then it could serve as a pre-step in a LR workflow.
Anyway, it's free so it only costs you your time.
