Accordance vs. Bibleworks

Has anyone used both? Which one do you think is better? In particular for Bible translation. Also, which has the better interface?

I've heard that you can link the biblical text to different modules. So, for example, I could have say, the Greek text up. I could type in Matthew 5, the greek text would come up and in the other windows I could have the NET Bible notes come up and in another window a map or graphic relevant to the text would come up. Is that true?

I'm not familiar with those softwares. Surely they can link like that. Logos has been like that forever.

I know BibleWorks does not link like that. It has what I call a "very inconvenient interface."

If anyone also knows Pradis I am hoping that Accordance is like that in its linking of windows.

Here is a thorough review of Accordance 8 from a third party perspective:
