Best color grading/ correction software?

I do not do much video right now (99% Lightroom, so I do know how to edit color to the way I want) but will start in this upcoming season. I've seen people use DaVinchi Resolve before, but it didn't look very professional (although I know it is). After going a bit of Googling I also found out about Adobe SpeedGrade, which supposedly works seamlessly with Premiere (which I do use).
My question to you; which software should I get and use, as well as pro's and con's of both.

DaVinci Resolve is an incredibly powerful program, but definitely not something for beginners.
Adobe Speedgrade is okay, but slowly becoming outdated as Adobe has essentially integrated a number of it's features into the latest Adobe Premiere CC Color Grading tools.
So, I would say, just color in Premiere if you have the latest version. If not, speedgrade is good, but I wouldn't say it's a 'seamless' workflow.

I don't do any gradng really, but the Lumetri Color window within the newest version of Premiere is a great tool by itself. You won't have the same level of control as in speedgrade or resolve, but it's very easy to use for color correction
