Purchase of SBIG ST2000xm CCD camera

Hi Andrew,
I am new in astrophotography using DSLR. I am a kind of familiar with using it, but have no idea about using mono CCD camera, filters and processing. I know you have experienced DSLR to CCD transition. I appreciate if you would advice the followings:
1- Why moving away from using DSLR? I have problem with DSLR to take DSO perfect images. Would your gears give me a better option?
2- How easy and time consuming it is to use mono CCD/filters/etc.
3- I have spend enough money for my current setup. How reliable is you gears: to eliminate equipment mal-function from knowledge of using it.
4- I was about buying a ZWO camera which is cheaper, but not perfect. Is there any room to reduce the cost of your gears?

Kind regards, Manoocher
