There's essentially two features that I like in TS:
1. Reporting - the reporting is much nicer than what is currently available in AB. It basically generates a mini-Excel document with tabs/worksheets - provides some great data on the performance of your system. It also provides a nice clean single page of open positions. All there in AB, but not done as nicely.
2. TS Stocks - a unique feature that currently requires CSI Data for it to work (and I'm considering switching to CSI in general). Basically, CSI provides data for the stock, data for the splits and data for dividends as separate files. TS then constructs their own internal TS Stock that will be more accurate when backtested.
I _love_ AB - but I find, personally, that doing some stuff in it is rather difficult without knowing the custom backtester. An example: reading portfolio equity - I'd love to be able to do this without using the custom backtester but that is what is required. In contrast, TS has only one "level" - so I find it a bit easier to do some specific tasks.
Now AB has a host of features that TS can't touch, including speed, rotational backtesting/portfolios - so for now I need both.
