As a tournament player trying to make the transition to ring, I've played around with the SS strategy a little bit. Granted, I'm just testing the waters, using Play Money, and playing as many tables as possible at once. Actually I'm trying to collect as many hands as I can using the strategy and seeing if I can keep up 9 tables at once.

The results so far show that the SS strategy makes it really easy to keep up with 9 tables at once (the limit with Play Money, several more would be easy, too) and as long as you keep to the strategy and don't drift away from it at all, which is tempting, it is profitable.

But I would have to agree with everything BillyTheBull says above. It is a pretty boring way to play poker; it doesn't even feel like poker. And I think that good players who know what you're doing would be able to beat you by using strategies similar to what he mentioned. However, supposedly when you are playing SS strategy, the only ones you need to worry about are other SSers.

All in all, I would say it's a good way for beginners to get used to ring without risking much money, allowing them a good chance of slowly growing their BR while multi-tabling, learning how big stacks play, and if you are using a HUD, seeing what kind of play loses money and what makes money. After you gain some of that basic knowledge, you will probably be ready to make a full buy-in and can use more of your acquired poker skills.
