I had to uninstall PT3 (because I think it sucks) and install Hold'em Manager.

edit:

I dont use it to [I]make[/I] any decisions.  I use to to see when (how often) someone bets, c-bets, 3-bets, etc.  It is obv that the more tables that you play, the harder it becomes to remember this info.  It becomes impossible at some point (not very many in my case lol).  
Once you obtain a sizable database, you can pretty much pick out the way that regulars play.  If you miss the flop but your opponent c-bets every time, you know that you may be able to steal the pot.  If your opponent always folds to a re-raise, you can see that.  If your opponent always wins his showdowns... well you get the point.

I think that alot of people see these programs as a "bot" type of thing that says fold here, shove here.  
These types of programs exist, but that is not what most of us are talking about.  
The next type are the basic types that tell you what kind of hand you have, what kind of hand that you can make and the odds that you will make it.  These are really only valuable for beginners.  
Then finally are the types of programs that most of us are talking about.  Some are made for you to go back after the game/tourney is completed and check your action against the recommended action.  Late in a tourney with the shortstack and not sure if you should push K9?  These programs tell you that.  Then there are the database types.  The sites allow them, because it is all info that you are already given.  (except the public datamining programs which Stars prohibits - for the reason that although you could had mined that info, you didnt)  Really all it does, is make your memory perfect (if you could in fact remember what every player did on every table, every hand lol)
