No, I've used just first method and it was working fine. Btw second one seems more easier to transfer pure AutoIt code to Python due to same function names.

I used Sikuli couple of years ago, that time, it was not able to work if computer is locked (I used image hooks). However I am satisfied enough with AutoIt that, I might not look at other tools in couple of next few years, it has helpful community at forums and stackoverflow.

So far, I've used it to connect with remote mySQL/mariaDb and SQLite. In my opinion its pretty reliable, a lot than Sikuli.

You can use AutoIt's Python wrapper, its somewhat reliable and I use it in automation in production.

I used to find quality offshore leads via eLance (now upWork) & Guru, and had 90% success rate (6 years ago).

Word of mouth or recommendations from some colleagues helped me acquire some clients.
