There are several reasons one would want to control their telescope with a PC:
It is faster than using the hand controller.
It gives you a visual aid when searching for something hard to find.
If you find something unknown, the planetarium software will be able to identify it.
It is a necessity if you plan on imaging anything for longer than a single quick exposure.
