I've had Lowrance Structure Scan 3D for years and rarely use side imaging. I always have a contour map, traditional sonar and downscan pulled up. I just don't have the screen real eastate to have side scan up too. I almost feel like side scan needs to be on the full screen to be of real use. If I had a second unit on the console I would use it a lot.
I just recently added Garmin Livescope to the bow and that's the best tool I've ever used.
I may eventually add a h bird to my console and keep my old hds gen2 for downscan
