I’m a big fan of free stuff and I did evaluate quite a few freeware offerings, including the ones you mention, when I was looking at what was available.  For me, though, none of these quite fitted the bill in terms of the flexibility that I was looking for and VTrain, although shareware, did emerge as my clear favourite.

But, sobre los gustos no hay nada escrito, as they say.

Also; why using shareware software? There some great freeware programs available like <a href="http://www.ichi2.net/anki/" rel="nofollow">Anki</a> and <a href="http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/" rel="nofollow">Mnemosyne</a>.
