In my experience CST with its user friendly interface and powerful 3D modeler is very efficient tool for all electromagnetic problems. Especially transient solver offers possibility to solve a huge variety of tasks even if you have to treat for example cavity problems. I’m using this for antenna arrays designs and I formed my opinion comparing simulated results with measured ones obtaining almost always quite good agreement especially regarding frequency behavior (there wasn’t any significant frequency shift with respect to the expected one). Other good feature is that you can use GPU and with moderate cost to turn an ordinary PC into a powerful workstation capable to solve huge size problems in terms of wavelength.
