To be honest, I doubt you would find many people use any of those file types unless it is an entirely in-house set up, although Compucon xxx is probably the most common of the three.
Normally files would be used in Tajima DST, as they are the most universal, followed by the other particular machine types: Barudan, Happy, ZSK, etc.
However, you need to bear in mind there are two distinct groups: those that just contain stitch data (length, direction, and type of stitch or machine code) and those that contain digitized points and parameters.
The first type will not be as easy to edit within programs, although it can be done as seen using Wilcom Trusizer (their free software).
As to Viking software, it probably does a job, but don't expect much sophistication. If you know what you're doing it is likely you can get decent designs. I can't tell you how easy that might be though.
