Hello, First ask your self the question of how big your layout is and how many Locos you have. If lets say you have a 10X10 foot room layout with 15 +/- locos you could easily get away with an Atlas system. If your layout is a basement layout with lots of locos and you have few hills etc. that need helpers I highly suggest the digitrax system. I have a basement layout with 75 DCC equipped locos. I don't use them all but it is nice to have the abilities of 4 digit addressing. I started out with the Atlas system, lasted 2 weeks before I knew that I needed the Digitrax system. I ended up keeping the Atlas system for my wife's N scale layout. Both work well, I love the Digitrax system hands down, I love every thing about it. It took me 4 hours to learn all of the functions on the system (note I am a computer consultant) it may take others a few days to learn but once you do it is so worth all the stuff it will do.
