I don't own any database program, nor have I ever missed one. They are very expensive, but from all that I have seen, they offer little features that would be needed for a player of your strength. Personally I do most of my chessanalysis work with Fritz & Friends or freeware engines , and I have never missed any feature I would be willing to pay any money for. When it is about blunder-checking that you mentioned as your main interest, a database will be pretty useless anyway. Kind regards, Peter
