I use similar software on PC solely because it allows independent remapping of Xbox Elite controller paddles. That is, I can map them to key presses directly instead of mapping them to another button on the controller. Previously I had to map another controller button to a key and then remap the paddle to that button.
But it also happens to use a virtual controller driver that can be used with the mouse and also abuse aim assist. And thus was hit with some anti-cheat blocks recently. So now unless I want to uninstall and reinstall that software between certain games I can't play some at all.
Edit: the software I was using was ReWASD. Turns out both Microsoft's official app and Steam's Big Picture Mode controller settings now do about 80-95% respectively of what I need from remapping software. (Microsoft's implementation of Shift buttons is incomplete and theirs doesn't work over Bluetooth. The MS app also doesn't allow you to map different keys contextually -- for long presses, double presses, etc)
