They do nothing but number crunching like a calculator and
will give you an answer close to what other programs provide
but not the same. The program does NOT help the user in any
way other than give you an answer regarding the performance
of what you provide. It does NOT give you any help as to where
you could benefit in any way.

EZNEC works for me! It is an easy to use interface to NEC2.

I made my choice for the ARRL Antenna Course. Cebik does a good job of
teaching the pro's and con's of antenna modeling there.

EZNEC does not install an engineer or a genie in your PC but it does
provide a tool set that will save a lot of time and money with
realistic answers.

If you have something specific you feel a modeling package should do
please share it!
