The MCS plug-in has many different kinds of searches for many different scenarios. MultiColumnSearch's full-text search capabilities require you to use Calibre's conversion features to convert any ebook format(s) you want to search to a TXT format. Convert one time, search endlessly. The conversion to a simple .txt file is very fast, and the resulting .txt files are very small. If you use the MCS full-text search, then you can also use the MCS word-index search function.

Or, you could install the Drop Search Results plug-in then drag-and-drop full-text search results (i.e., Calibre book paths created by applications such as Agent Ransack) onto the DSR icon.

What search tools you use are very dependent on what type of searches you perform, how often, and for what quantity of ebooks. There is no single "correct" answer. Your choice(s) to make.
