Probably. IMO, the purpose of compost is to culture a huge amount of diverse aerobic microbes that cover all of the functional groups in the soil food web. Most compost methods do that very poorly, or substitute long amounts of time to get mediocre results. Almost never does anyone prove the quality of their method with a microscope assessment.

Feedback from temperature data has been the most important thing I've used to improve my compost method and the quality of my hot compost piles. My previous method involved reading a dial thermometer twice a day and recording it in a spreadsheet. This sensor gives me more data with higher quality and less work.
