I have tested NAUI tables with V-Planner and the tables work out to being a fairly conservatively set V-Planner, +3 or +4 on a scale of 0 to +4.
Suunto Vypers (if anyone is still buying these) also work out to be approximately the same as well. Not exactly, but almost the same.
I have also tested V-Planner to 250 fsw with EAN50 and O2 deco with complete confidence. But I suppose everyone has their own favorite deco software.
I trust them all now and highly recommend them to everyone.
The advantage of the Vypers and of V-Planner is their multi-day wash out periods. The tables do not have that as a feature, so you have to watch out, as you get to Day 5 of multi-day diving, with a table.
