I prefer to throw seeds into deli and yogurt containers with holes drilled in the bottom, then pot up the strongest seedlings into 4" nursery pots. To me, it seems easier than cell trays. I can gauge how much water is in each container by weighing it in my hand. When I tried using cell trays, I could never figure out how much water was in each cell... Killed a lot of seedlings that way.
