It's industry-standard for a reason!
I'm not much of a DJ (I prefer buttons and knobs to turntables), but I much prefer Native Instruments Traktor over Ableton Live when it comes to performance software. With two-or-four-deck mixing capabilities, built-in samplers, and insane MIDI mapping capabilities (in some cases even more flexible than Live!), I can get Traktor working with as much or as little gear as I need, in any style of play I'd like.
Whether you're a seasoned DJ or a beginner to performing electronic music at all, Traktor was a HUGE help getting me out there and I submit that it will be the same for you.

Just as good as Serato
It's the great debate, which is better, Traktor vs. Serato? I can't tell you the other side of things as I've never been a Serato user but Traktor gets the job done, and nicely! The UI is clean and easy to navigate and can be customized in all sorts of ways to suit your style of DJing. It comes fully loaded with all the features you could ask for including 8 custom cue points per deck, 30+ effects, 4 individual FX units, loop recorder, the ability to adjust the colour of your wave forms, and that's just scratching the surface.

been using traktor for years`
For my regular DJ shows, radio show and "boiler room" sets Traktor has always been there for me since the early days. Came up with it, still support it. Great for technical DJs who use a lot of pre-planning and FX, cues and loops. I feel like I still have to use Rekordbox to prep but Traktor is solid for anything else.

Best Switch
Not sure about anyone else, but I absolutely fell in love with Traktor recently after making a switch from Serato to Traktor. It is definitely more flexible with Traktor being able to use most (if not all) MIDI controllers with it, although some needs to be custom mapped, but it works. Serato is a bit less flexible with this, considering only certain equipment unlock the use of Serato and not being able to plug in any controller and just map it.

Traktor Pro 2 is Awesome.
First time was inspired by Zedd , started to use this software for DJ Performance. And Traktor was Amazing, easy to use & compatible with many DJ Controller or CDJ+DJM as well. Colorful waves make happy, cool sound quality, effects sound so real, easy to use. Can mix without connect to the DJ, nice when can mix anywhere just using laptop as alternative.

Great DJ software
Have been really happy with Pro 2, looking forward to digging my hands into Pro 3 now that I've just snagged it! I am not a super advanced DJ, but have not found it hard to learn.

For Advance Level And Mixing
After Using Virtual DJ For Quite Some Time, I Decided To Bring My Skill Up To The Next Level By Using Taktor Scratch Pro 2. To Be Honest, It Really More Complicatied Than Virtual DJ But I Manage To Learn Each Of It Function Within 2 Weeks. My Opinion Better Than Virtual DJ !

One of the best DJ Software's out there.
Traktor Pro 2 is an amazing software for DJ-ing. It offers a ton of options and overall works pretty damn well. It is a bit hard to get used to when transitioning from other software such as Virtual DJ. But once you do, you're golden.

On Richard David James's SoundCloud account named "user18081971", he mentions the use of NI's Traktor on the comments: "also loads of you interested in the setup..running a few progs, Traktor/msp and eurorack modular..dont often use Traktor but its ok but pisses me off it doesn’t do multiple bpms per track, come on NI get with the ‘programme’ will put a modular grid config up to shut you all up :)"
As a longtime Traktor Kontrol fan, Porter has naturally used the accompanying Traktor Pro software for his DJ sets for a long time starting back in the Spitfire era, all the way up to his return to DJing at EDC 2022. This Youtube short shows him controlling the software at a party before the festival.

In this video from Richie's YouTube channel, Richie uses Traktor to play four audio tracks simultaneously while DJing. The colors and layout for the software are distinct to Traktor 2.
Carl Cox on DJing with Traktor: "...there's so much in it that you can do to create. And now with the X1s you're able to get to all of those beautiful effects, which I think is amazing."
Since Zomboy uses the Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S4, it follows that he also uses Traktor Pro DJ software. In this video interview, you can see clips of him performing live. At 2:40 you get a glimpse of his laptop showing him running the software.
