I've read complaints from players that often when analyzing parts with modern, neural engines, more powerful than human players, they don't understand one or another of the engine's intentions. I am an amateur player, I play for joy and out of passion. occasional practice games for ELO evaluation with the engine. learning endings (but it doesn't matter that much), I have the budget for the HCE Pro Deep, but I don't know if it makes sense to overpay. HCE Pro is newly released, and will probably be supported for years. At this point, I also don't know whether to buy the standard version or the deep version, not so much because of the multi-core support, but the GM+ 2022 online book (12 million positions where the standard version has 3 million) and 1000GB online endgame tablebases. HCE Pro is in my native language, has great support and forum, but is more expensive (70 euro - standard version, 100 euro - deep version). But I don't know if it is further developed. I'm wondering which one to choose? Shredder 13 is the cheapest for me (single core option, 50 euro), supports the chessboards I have (Novag Citrine, DGT Pegasus), has slightly more training options (hard for me to research, but that's how they advertise the product on their website).

I just want one, without discussing the others and the fact that there are cheaper/free replacements. The engines of both play humanely (which is important to me). I like HCE Pro and Shredder 13 because they have a simple, easy to read GUI. It seems that HIARCS and Shredder will offer longer support (does Chessbase continue to support Frtiz 17? Probably not - I mean). I rejected Aquarium because it is undevelopable and complicated, and Fritz 18/17/16/Komodo because their interface sometimes malfunctions on my computer, and I have the impression that of the Chessbase family only the title 'Chessbase' matters. After gathering the pros and cons of each program, I decided that I was interested in the new HIARCS Chess Explorer PRO and Shredder 13. My search included commercial solutions such as: Shredder, HIARCS, Aquarium, Fritz 18/17/16/Komodo Dragon. I wanted a cool GUI and at the same time an interesting engine.

The moment has come, when I want to have finally some universal, local program to work on chess.
