Jagannatha Hora is matchless in terms of its range of calculations offered.
(1) The year range of full version is expanded to -12900 to 16600 (previously -5400 to 5400). Target precision of planetary calculations is improved to 0.001 arc-sec. Swiss Ephemeris used in JHora was updated to version 2.02.01 and this updates the target JPL ephemeris to DE431.
(2) Fixed a bug that sometimes showed wrong calculations with ayanamsas NOT based on the exact longitude of a fixed star (e.g. traditional Lahiri, Krishnamurthy, Raman), when one uses mean/true tropical solar year as dasa year or in the definition of lunar year or TP.
(3) Added new options in the computation of Tithi Pravesha chart.
(4) Added new options in the computation of lunar new year chart to define it based on first new Moon or Full Moon after Sun enters any sidereal/tropical sign. This allows one to cast the lunar new year chart.
(5) Added new options in the computation of solar new year chart to define it based on Sun's entry into any sidereal/tropical sign.
(6) Added new options in the computation of progressed chart based on Vimsottari dasa.
(7) Added the ability to compute progressed chart based on nakshatra dasa computed from various seeds in various vargas.
(8) Fixed an error in amsa rulers (deities) of D-27.
(9) An option to output panchanga data for an entire year in a tab delimited spreadsheet format requested by a famous religious peetham in south India was added.
(10) Added the ability to find drigdasa for any divisional chart.
(11) Removed the 'Set calculations options as recommended by Sri Vinay Jha (SSS)' option.
(12) Added the ability to turn on/off refraction, annual aberration of light and gravitational deflection in apparent planetary positions and the ability to turn on/off nutation in tropical positions.

Western astrology uses tropical zodiac, while Vedic astrology uses sidereal zodiac. But, there is now irrefutable evidence in Saptarishi Nadi that saptarishis used a tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras. In fact, many famous astrologers like Ernst Wilhelm, Vic DiCara, Ryan Kurczak, etc. use tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras. However, Vedic astrology softwares use sidereal zodiac by default. Therefore, if one wants to use tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras, one needs to modify the settings for tropical zodiac.
Sidereal zodiac and the ayanamsa
The 12 signs of the zodiac start with Aries and end with Pisces. But, regarding the starting reference point for Aries, two schools of thought exist — tropical and sidereal. The tropical school uses the movement of the Sun with respect to the Earth to define the zodiac, while the sidereal school uses nakshatras to define the zodiac. The sidereal school says that the tropical zodiac has now moved away from the sidereal zodiac by about 24°. Therefore, to obtain the sidereal zodiac, this difference (ayanamsa) has to subtracted from the tropical zodiac . In short, sidereal zodiac = tropical zodiac – ayanamsa.
In other words, sidereal zodiac uses a specific ayanamsa value, while the tropical zodiac uses no ayanamsa (or zero ayanamsa).

The software I use to compute tropical zodiac (zero ayanamsa) with sidereal nakshatras is a free software called Jagannatha Hora; one can download this software from http://www.vedicastrologer.org/jh/index.htm. But, not all astrology softwares provide this option.
Settings for tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras
However, this software uses sidereal zodiac by default. To modify the settings for tropical zodiac with sidereal nakshatras, follow these steps:

- In the menu, click Preferences
- Expand the first option, Related to Calculations
- Now, select the second option, Ayanamsa
- Then, use the drop-down menu under “Select the ayanamsa you want to be used in calculations”
- Select the last option, “Tropical (sayana)” (Arrow no.1 in the picture below). This allows us to use a tropical zodiac.
- Now to continue using sidereal nakshatras, make sure you tick the check box “Use sidereal zodiac for nakshatras and nakshatra dasas when using tropical zodiac.” (Arrow no. 2 in the picture below)
