I'm still doing sysadmin work remotely while I slowly grow our own herd of dairy goats (12 now as of last week) for our soap business. Still a very low-tech setup but I may finally splurge on an electric milk pump this year after 5 years of hand milking.. I've had enough!

We both hand-milk and use a pump. We've had a Simple Pulse for a while. It has been reliable and easy to clean. I'd say using a pump adds 5 minutes of overhead for setting up and cleaning, but it's not that much more given that I'm cleaning a bucket and strainers anyways.
