I have my X-plane simulation running on multiple machines and with mutliple displays.  Four Televisions.  Two flush for front scenery, one for left window, and a chin bubble (rotorcraft simulation)

I have not been able to align the terrain between the multiple televisions with much success.  Please relay your experiences with successful alignment of terrain between multiple screens.

Will it get any better with the purchase of the professional version?

With multiple displays you have to do some adjustments to accommodate bezels and the angle each screen is showing. Have you read this section of the manual?

The Pro version does include capabilities for dome projection and wrap around visuals, but it's quite a bit more expensive.

I have done this, with lateral offset etc.  It just does not work well.  Most evident when you roll the aircraft for example and the horizon does not line up ... or even if the horizons seem to meet at the bezel the angle that the horizon makes is different between monitors.

I have measured all of the angles from the eye point to the various monitor edges to ensure I enter as accurate information as possible for the visual adjustments ... not working.

Seems to work better for when identical monitors are side by side, but has much greater difficulty for the "chin bubble" monitor
