Focustune fan here myself. (Close cousin to Lens align, same company). took a little work, but I tweaked most of my lenses, and could immediately see a difference. For 30 bucks, (and a number of hours of your time) how far wrong can you go?

I suppose it all depends on how you value your time. For me FoCal saved me several hours - and I value my time at a lot more than 30 bucks an hour. So, for me, it was well worth the extra expense.
