Key Tool Plus vs Smart Pro, do I really need Smart Pro?

I’m UK-based and new to auto locksmith programming. I’ve just completed a programming course and the trainer recommended owning both Key Tool Plus and Smart Pro.

The problem is Smart Pro seems very expensive once you include the token/subscription system.

My current plan is:

• OBD programming
• Solderless EEPROM/bench work only
• No soldering jobs
• Mainly aiming for common UK vehicles and trying to cover around 70–80% of the market

What do you suggest i do ?
