Deep Sky Stacking programs?

Hi everyone,

well I am beginning in the realm of DSO imaging with 20Da and f 6.3 focal reducer on 14" SCT. Tried a few exposures 1,2 and 3 minutes with no correcting at this stage. Two minutes seems okay for keeping stars pin point. Does any one here use Deep Sky Stacker for stacking DSO images or do most of you use Images Plus, which I have heard is very good?

Here is a 2 minute exposure of open cluster near the tail of the scorpion sorry I don't know its name or NGC number. Taken at iso 1600.
