Dealing with more than 2 parts on a staff takes more effort, since the "select players for deletion" filters don't work in those situations, and if you have 2 voices in a single measure along with instances of single voice chords, that filter doesn't work. The TGTools option also understands how to handle specific text, such as solo, and can automatically remove text that wouldn't ordinarily be included on the separate parts. I find that Sibelius also fails to consistently assign dynamics to the correct parts when different voices are used in different measures. Sibelius filters are awesome, and I find them to be very handy. It's just for this specific purpose TGTools seems to outperform them.
