Can be a bit technical to get started with. But overall it's a great powerful product and as most powerful products are they require a bit of technical work.
More robust and feature rich. Also more cost effective. However, the other options do lend themselves to be better at user friendliness. But if your technological and willing to look up help in the support knowledgebase you will do just fine and get a better product at better pricing.
