As a preface: I run Oracle of War on Roll20, so that is going to factor in to my answer. There's no modules to get for it on Roll20, so I have ended up setting everything up manually. It is written for adventurers league, so for the most part NPC statblocks are from the core rulebooks. Someone also released battlemaps and the earlier ones are not that easy to line up with the Roll20 grid.
As far as session prep, that's gotten easier with time as I've absorbed more Eberron lore, but when I just started out your given bare minimum information and there are somethings the authors took liberties with. I can't speak to forming into into a more continuous story, so if you wanted to "fill in the blanks" between sessions then you'll have a little more work. I am running it AL legit, so I have to worry less about that. One adventure I'm about to run does feel VERY shoehorned in, like literally bending geography to put the party where the adventure wanted it to be and that took me a while to reconcile.
Otherwise, most of my work has been in setting up the VTT.
