I have had two tractors, I have never put one on. I cannot justify the cost. In my particular situation there is a guy down the road with a mine ex, and I call him to do ditches/trenches. he charges about 300 for a full day minus lunch and pack up time. I have hired him 3 times for stuff I would have used the backhoe for.
If you have more work than that, maybe it would be worth it to you. I won't say that I will never put one on my tractor, but it would have to be a heck of a bargain.
Good luck in your decision, hope it works out for you.
