I have not tried this software, however heard some great things from it from friends.
Here is a review:

"It’s important to realize that Toon Boom Studio is a very different beast. The key concepts here are “cels”, the equivalent of animators’ transparent overlays; the “exposure sheet”, by which the onscreen display of cels is controlled; and “pegs” to which cel sequences can be attached and then automatically transformed over time.
To animate a bird flying across a scene, for example, you create different cels for each wing position, set up their sequence and time onscreen in the exposure sheet and then attach the bird’s wing and body sequences to a peg that you then drag across the screen to animate."
If you want a good introductory course, look for this VTC:
