I've tried em all, and they all have advantages and disadvantages. This one is stable, robust enough, fast and quite easy to use. Most importantly it has never messed up my machine, as a few of the others have done. Glad to see it finally getting an update. Hope the developer will be supporting it more often and actively now. Try it!
