I reckon SPECCTRA is by *far* the best for high complexity boards, >4 layers, or densely packed SMT boards. Also ahead by a mile IMHO when it comes to minimising extraneous vias and the costing system in place works very well in allowing you to dictate strategy. Sadly, it costs a fortune..
Agree that the Blaze router is the best mid/low price range router although they seem to have the same problem as grid based routers when, for example, decoupling capacitors are placed close to IC's preventing standard fanout algotithms from working. In the brief play I've had I never managed to get it to UAE though and that gets points in my book
