My experience has been exactly opposite. Potrace does wonderful job on simple images like logos, whereas with Xara's tracer I was never able to get acceptable results and in most cases found it easier just to trace a bitmap by hand using Pen.
potrace is indeed a wonderful thing, although in this case i am working with photographs.I don't need the output to be editable paths it am just doing it as i like the look of them. I have investigated autotrace and that seems to fit my needs. It produces a similar output to inkscapes clever use of potrace multiple passes , and is command line.
