Moving away from Kontakt for pianos. Is Pianoteq the best alternative? (Saw a 20% sale)

I'm looking to upgrade my piano VST setup. Keyscape seems to be the standard everyone always talks about, but I noticed Pianoteq is running a 20% off promotion right now. The basic package ends up being noticeably cheaper than Keyscape, plus it saves a ton of gigabytes on my drive.

For those who have actually tried both, does physical modeling sound and feel as good as Keyscape's massive sample library?

I want to make the right choice before dropping the money. What do you guys recommend?

Pianoteq iOS vs Ravenscroft/Pure Piano for live playing? (Saw the 20% sale)

I've been looking for a really good piano app for my iPad. I mostly play live using a MIDI keyboard that has a built-in audio interface using the iPad with the Numa Player.

I just saw that Pianoteq is running a 20% off promotion right now. Even with the discount it's an investment, so I wanted to ask people here: is it really that much better than Ravenscroft 275 or Pure Piano for live playing?

I've watched the reviews but I'd love to hear from people actually using it on stage before I pull the trigger.
