Tracking Software vs. Studying Poker / What do Pro's do?

[theRabbit]

I've used/looked at a number of the popular tracking/monitoring software available. They are, I am sure, useful, but I have found there is a steep learning curve toward mastery.

Hypothetically-

If a winning low stakes poker player's goal was to make say, $50+/hr, would they be better off learning to use the available softwares or using that time to study the game? Also, do any Professional's use extra software?

What is the opnion of forum readers?
