Cons
Con Forced wait time to view docs
If you use the free version you are very often forced to wait 10 seconds to view something you've chosen to look at. If you change apps or lose focus of Dash, it'll start that 10 second timer over again. A real crappy thing to do to your users in order to get them to buy it. Forcing you to waste your time.

For unrestricted use of all features, an account is required that costs €10 per year.
Con Java required
Requires a Java installation to run.
