This is actually a tough one to answer as everyone has a different preference when it comes to these programs. However I will tell you which two I use and let you make up your mind as to whether they are suitable for you.

The best actual re-writer and most cost effective is one called The Best Spinner created by a guy called Jon Leger which currently has a $7 trial for seven days and then it is $77.00 a year after that. Why the subscription on The Best Spinner? Because the information for all the spin text is located on a server which can actually be updated by the users as well as the system admin. The best Spinner also allows you to spin more than one word at a time and will give you a list of alternatives to use as well.

The next is a software program called Rapid Re-Writer which I use exclusively for re-writing sentences in the articles before I spin them. This program also comes with some very useful video tutorials, currently sells for $97 one time fee.

Hope this helps you out… The best thing to do is follow the links I have given you and check out the programs to see if could use them.

P.S I nearly forgot to answer your initial question, yes I have used both of the programs you mention but I find the two I listed above much faster to use and I seem to get better quality articles spun, again it all comes down to what you are comfortable with.
