If lottery software predicted jackpots they wouldn't be for sale. The software is only as good as the person opperating it. If you have a complete understanding of how the lottery works in its many layers, then you will find some lottery software helpful tracking your plays, constructing your charts, wheeling and filtering, etc.
The lottery software I find myself refering to on a regular basis are . . .
CoverMaster
Gail Howard's Smart Luck Advantage Plus
Lottery Director
Lottohat
Lotwin
If I didn't have any of these I could work with EOL, Lotto Creo, Lotto Pro, Versa Bet, etc.
This isn't to say there aren't any others perfectly capable of charting, wheeling and filtering, it's just that you can have too much information. The lottery is like a huge maze, so many different paths to take.
You can find a list of lottery software products here . . .

Most offer some sort of free ride or demo so you can get a feel for what the product is like to work with. Nothing worse then paying a lot of money for a software you can't stand to work with or can't figure out. BobP
