Hi Martin,
DSS ( Deep Sky Stacker ) seems to be the go to for DSO targets. Easy enough to use and will handle any camera file type I can think of.

For planetary I am using AutoStakkert which at first glance looks a bit complicated but does a good job. I then transfer the image to Registax6 to do wavelets.

After that images are processed, tweaked etc in Photoshop.

Those three are all free software and a good starting point. As you said there are lots more to try till you find the one that suits your requirements for ease of use and results.

Almost forgot , get BYEOS ( Back Yard EOS ) for your Canon camera control, just brilliant and well worth the $50 or so it costs.
