Hi Alex,
I prefer Polemaster over Sharpcap. In particular, it enables me to polar align without having my OTA attached - this is an advantage if you have a heavy setup and a mount with old-style bolts that struggle to move axes when fully loaded. Also, if you use an OAG, I again recommend PM, but this will depend on your OTA.
I doubt you will dislike it, but each to their own...I'll follow Ken's vids and see how PHD2 suits for some setups.
