CAS can help with the more mechanical parts of a proof. I use it often to quickly check if something can be rewritten to something else I want. The sad part is that even if the CAS doesn't find a solution it doesn't mean there is no solution. It just didn't find it. But it can save a lot of work if the first thing you do is just quickly check, if you're lucky you just saved yourself a lot of work.

I don't know what field you are in so it may or may not be helpful to you.
