In my (limited) experience, they are different ways of accomplishing the same thing. I like the fact that "keyless" is available at setup time, which saves a step or two. I also like the fact that Finale leaves older functionalities along with new ones for us dinosaurs who find it hard to break old habits. If anyone has other information, I'd also love to hear it.
