Conclusion:
Even if Magic HoldEm is a solution a bit cheaper than its competitors (Calculatem Pro and Holdem Genuis), Magic Holdem is expensive software ($ 90/year or $ 120 / 2 years) and its quality/price ratio is very low. Magic Holdem advice during a hand are limited (the suggestions of the software are limited to "call", "raise", "fold") and these suggestions are often very poor. You will always lose money by following these suggestions to the letter, that will make you a loose-passive player. Software is therefore just an expensive odds calculator.
PokerCollectif does not recommend Magic Holdem.
