After using the latest version of LR, DPP just seems weak when PP Raw. The last few versions of Light Room have gotten better and better. I particularly like the way you can use the Alt key when sharpening and cleaning up noise, the view it gives helps.

I have noticed that if you shoot jpgs with the 7D II and 5Ds R they have the settings built in and do a good job of cleaning up noise compared to previous bodies. Occasionally I will shoot in RAW and JPG for a comparison to see how much I improve the picture.
