itoa, atoi - confused

I'm pretty new to C, although I did do some years ago now.

I've been told that itoa is no longer a standard function, and that the
ato... functions - although in the std - are not recommended.

So, I was wondering what was wrong with both itoa and atoi etc (and what's
replaced them).

Many thanks
