"I like the Peaks software because it has multiple approaches to dig deep into the mass spectrum information by denovo, Peaks search and other established search engines. Denovo search gives opportunity for new discovery and validation of data. Annotation of the spectrum is very useful; you can see the labels of the ions and coverage of the peptide sequence by annotation. Various, numerous post-translational artificial modifications are useful. It always gives good coverage of the proteins with good validation of spectrum. The map view of the coverage, easy access to the FDR adjustments, and data from any instruments can be searched. However, I need to study handling of large scale data and quantitative proteomics. I guess it has been improved. "
