Goto is only useful for locating objects more easily, you still need a good polar alignment to avoid field rotation in the images.

If you are quite happy to hunt manually for your targets then goto is essentially a non event. The only difference between goto and basic tracking is that with goto you have electronics in/on/connected to the mount which (After alignment) know where the mount is aimed and so can automatically aim it at targets. If your polar alignment is way off you will still have field rotation effects in images.
