I have that crimper too. I use it with a pair of vise grips and have to clamp down, re-adjust the vise grips, clamp again, etc for a few times. It's a pain compared to the $100 tool with the handles, but if you aren't doing too many crimps it's not a bad deal. The sharkbite connectors are easy, and removable, but at $6+ a pop, it adds up quickly.
