Computer analysis always correct?

Sometimes the computer analysis suggests moves that I don't understand or just don't like. Is the computer analysis on this website ever inaccurate?

I don't know if the computer analysis is significantly better as a paid member.  As a free member, it is pretty poor and useful only as a blundercheck.  Frequently it puts ?! against my moves and recommends alternatives I think look worse, so sometimes I check them in Houdini and Houdini prefers my move maybe 90% of the time.

The CA is a little better for premium, but it's still useful mostly for missed tactics:

  • Basic/Free: 1 Computer Analysis per week - with a search depth of 8 ply (estimated at 2000 strength)
  • Gold:  2 Computer Analysis per week - with a search depth of 10 ply (estimated at 2200 strength)
  • Platinum:  25 Computer Analysis per week - with a search depth of 14 ply (estimated at 2500 strength)
  • Diamond: 100 Computer Analysis per week - with a search depth of 14 ply (estimated at 2500 strength)
