Used to use LIDO charts during flightschool and kinda liked them. My current company uses Jepp charts and gets the tailor made airport booklets from them, one booklet for every normally used airport and all normal alternates each, normal paper plates in the route manual for all other airports. The booklets are kinda neat, some even contain some additional general data like weather data over the year, pictures from several positions of the aerodrome etc, actually quite helpful if you fly to a place you haven't been to before. Jepp doesnt change maps for us, we have our own navigation department that takes care of that and decides for which airports we need booklets (and fmc company routes etc). Paper is flimsy and wears out very fast if not in a booklet, thats certainly a problem.
