The key benefit of a program like Pokertracker is to find out how you are doing in the short/medium/long term. If you don't know how you are doing you will never find a reason to change how you play.

This is to say that the "key benefit" of the program is exactly what I get from a free Open Office spreadsheet.

I suppose the automated history processing saves some time, but I happen to play B&M too so automated history processing would never be sufficient to track results.

I do think PT adds more value than just results tracking, and I doubt that results tracking is the "key benefit".
