Essential no, but I use them since I train mostly fasted. Supposed to prevent catabolism in this state although that can be debated too. I personally just like the taste too as there are some really awesome tasting ones out there.
If you are getting enough protein you really don't need them, however. Especially if your meal timing is within a few hours of training.
