I use Finale 2010, but I've never had the time or inclination to get right into the abilities of the program. I just wanted to use my little midi keyboard and transpose some of my very cumbersome piano music into one-liners. I found it's very handy for that, and changing key.
If you think you can, or you think you can't, you're probably right.

It's a bit clumsy at times, I'm using a user-input tempo, and I usually have to go back to fine tune some of the eighth notes, and especially triplets and sixteenths. As long as I allow plenty of time and pretty it up afterwards I'm happy. You have to manually add slurs etc, it may do that somewhere, but the user manual is too much reading for me.

How do you feel the midi to notes conversion is? I'm not all that happy with it and I am using Finale 2011.
Horrible. It can't get your intonation marks from the MIDI's for the XmasProject2011 Parts. But for notes, it works okay. But when it gets to multiinstrumented files, it tends to mix them up on a single staff.

I use Musescore because it was free. xD
The only thing I don't like about it is when you have a bunch of the same note in a measure, when you sharp or flat a note it makes the next one natural. So you have to place a sharp or flat on every note. It's kind of annoying. But then I haven't used Musescore very long, so I don't know if there's a trick to make it not do that. lol
