A properly setup string alignment will be more accurate and more consistent than a digital alignment (IF the string kit is properly setup). This is the go-to method for most professional race teams, they'll rarely be setting up alignments on a digital machine.

I recently got one from BG Racing for alignments on my E92 M3 race car. Really happy with this kit. First time setup takes a while but after that it's easy to use and extremely accurate when setup properly.
That Tenhulzen one is a proper kit. I am 90% convinced to get it.
