Default Software of choice for club lap systems?

I've been using RCM timings Advanced software for a while now and although I have just about mastered most of its uses it does not do simple things like stagger/single starts (ultimate version only €500)
Looked at BBK but seems difficult to use so looked at Laps free which is a lot easier but not as easy as RCM.
Question is what do you all find best and easiest to run?

Thanks, will take a look but we are on a budget so I'm sure they will all be expensive options.
For anyone looking the laps free system seems very good but haven't run a meeting on it yet, done some off line tests using the number buttons instead of PT's and it works very well, (big event functions for free!!)

We used BBK for years, switched to RC-Timing early last year and frankly have been kicking ourselves for not have switched earlier ever since. Its just so much more intuitive that within a few weeks we were implementing features it had taken years with BBK to learn.
Also tech support of BBK left a little to be desired. We not had to ask for help with RC-Timing yet (which says something in itself) but reportedly they are supposed to be good.
