Use this when
Fewer than a few hundred sequences, especially divergent ones — L-INS-i is usually the most accurate option available. Clustal Omega scales better past that.

About this tool
Offers a range of strategies from very fast to very accurate, including iterative refinement modes suited to divergent sequences.
