I have that set up on my custom Guru. It works really well.
However, since I got that bike in 2011, they came out with an Ultegra rear cassette with an 11-32 that I have on my new Trek. The spacing of the gearing does feel different, despite it only being one cog different. I wish they had these compact set ups with closer spacing between the gears. I do miss my triple; not because I don't have enough easy gears, but because I am, again, having trouble finding the sweet spot. As per recommendations, I am staying in the small ring more, which has helped my knees, but it feels ineffecient at times.
