I feel like it is a matter of personal preference. Being married 44 years, I changed my name, but if a woman ha professional accomplishments under her maiden name, so be it. I have a neice who is a veterinarian, her doctor name at the clinic, is her maiden name, otherwise I believe she uses her married name, which is much more difficult to pronounce and spell.
