I definitely disagree with the above reply. The orb is really only useful for junglers, as it allows them to counterjungle must easier. Facechecking bushes as a jungler is the biggest determinant on whether you will pick up a kill or a buff. If you don't have to facecheck, you have a much higher chance of successfully counterjungling. The orb lets the jungler get vision without having to facecheck. However, there's still little to no reason for the jungler to pick up the orb level 1. Look at the cooldowns. You might as well just get the warding totem as it is on a shorter cooldown and grants more vision. The orb is really only good for late game, so I don't see a reason to buy it at all until level 9 when you can upgrade it using gold and by then the trinket is much less useful than it needs to be to be a valid item.
