There are MANY very good codes out on the market, both with
pseudopotentials and all-electrons.
All codes have there advantages AND disadvantages and therefore it is
good if one (usually the supervisor) knows the merrits of the different
methods/codes.
In any case, I always say: the best code is the code, which you can
master, because in 99% of the cases a code could do the job, but you do
not know how to do it with this particular code.
WIEN2k is generally believed to be a fairly user-friendly code and has
reasonable default input settings. In addition it has a mailing list
where one can ask questions like this.
