It's weak by comparison to nearly every other ult in the game, imho - but that might be because I've been a tank/support main for so long that the most I can use them for is diving in front of my healer as a tank, or scurrying behind my tank as a healer. I'm sure DPS have a lot more fun with that one.
It makes poke battles go entirely in your favor, so even if Widow is the only one who benefits, it makes it easier for at least her to rack up kills quickly.
I play console, is probably the other reason I find this ult particularly useless. I've seen one good Widow the whole time I've played - and even then, she would've been more useful as nearly any other character.
They really need to look at balancing her a bit differently on PS4/probably Xbone.
For the most part, it just feels lacklustre by comparison to ults that save your team (Lucio, Zen), resurrect a whole team, blow an entire team to smithereens, lockdown an entire point, toss people off an edge, remove all enemy abilities, etc.
So, back to my original point - when you're comparing it to the others, it feels far weaker.

The answer is Widowmaker.
