I was dreading filling in the Schengen form by hand at the consulate. Being able to switch between English and the local language fields was useful for my family's details. Took me roughly an hour and a half including gathering documents. It's rare to find a form-filling tool that doesn't feel clunky. My appointment was at the VFS centre and they accepted everything without comment. If the consulate had a recommendation list, this would be on it.
