What multi-monitor software do you use?

Bluethulhu

I'm about to re-install Windows again. I've changed out hardware a lot since the last time I re-installed Windows, so I figure it will be nice to have a clean PC. I also recently upgraded from 1 to 3 monitors. I think I'm going to buy some multi-monitor management software, but I'm not sure which one to buy. I would like to know what other people use, because the reason I got the monitors was pretty much all driven by productivity. What do you think is the best software for this?

I'm not using any, but so far DisplyFusion has been praised as the best. 

 

The Dual monitor tools suite is useful too if it serves your purposes.

After my upgrade to Windows 8 I'm no longer using one but when I boot into Windows 7 I use DisplayFusion.

 

I've tried a few different multi monitor programs but I finally settled on buying DisplayFusion as it offered the features I needed at a good price (got it for sale on steam)

I don't see the need for third party software. I run two mismatched and ran two identicals no problem, never saw the point in extra software.

I feel like with 3 it starts to get annoying. I ran two for a while as well, but I sold one to a friend and eventually got 2 matching. When you snap some things to the middle monitor (Steam for example), it spans across all 3. If I maximize it to just one monitor, the border starts to glitch out. If I snap to the left/right monitor, it fills up one and the middle monitor has half of it. Gets really irritating after a while.
