My Orbi RBR50 with two satellites has been dropping off-line lately, with about 45 devices connected to it, in an area of approx. 5,000 sg.ft. My questions are:
Is it easy to connect all the existing devices to it?
Is it worth the money? null

Easy enough to connect but IMO not worth it. I bought a third satellite for a total of four units - 5000 foot home as coverage and speed was not as promised. Even with 3 satellites- not great.  No better than the $600 Arris I replaced, or the older ORBI before that. I’m into these for about $2500 as I also got the top line modem. 
A lot of dough without much to show for it.

I was told the secret is to name your new Orbi the same as the old one and use the same password. Otherwise you need to reconnect all your devices.
