Pros
Pro Has SSL authentication/encryption
Especially since the shared keyboard data may contain passwords, and the application can "control your computer" (as the MacOS X permissions dialog puts it) it is important to ensure that the connection between computers is secured so that even if you are using it on an open WiFi hotspot, others cannot see the data being sent, nor can they inject data into the connection.

Cons
Con Requires a host computer
Only one computer can act as a host at a time, and the mouse/keyboard sharing is one way. So if you have computer at home, and a computer at work and you want to link your laptop to different computers depending on where you are, you need to change the host settings for each location.
