So what will be the "disadvantages" of Dobsonian over the scopes with tripods with mount/motor drive?

I am confused because I am brand new to telescopes.
eg. SkyWatcher SW135 Reflector Telescope with Motor Drive
$400

Dobsonian:
SkyWatcher 6" Dobsonian Telescope SW580
$379

SkyWatcher Black Diamond 8" Collapsible Dobsonian Telescope
$669

Is the main purpose of the ones has mount/motor drive with tripod for tracking, keep sync with planets/stars?
