Guys, I just bought the i9 Pro 512GB 15.4 model and want to know what apps will be the best:

On my 2013 11' Air I have some great apps and I am trying to expand and find out more:

1. Flux
2. Caffeine
3. Little Snitch
4. MS Office Suite
5. Parallels
6. Evernote
7. BTT

Please add to this list
 
Microsoft Office
Final Cut Pro
Logic Pro
Adobe Creative Suite
Affinity Photo, Designer, and Publisher
AutoCAD
 
This question makes no sense. It really depends on what you do. The most productive apps I have used over last 10 years were Apple mail, Apple calendar, finder, safari, preview, terminal with bunch of Unix tools and textmate. Microsoft Office is probably the least productive tool I currently have installed and I only use it because my administration requires some paperwork to be submitted as word documents.
 
Productivity is defined as what you need to accomplish...personally I use compilers, an editor, system utilities, and my codes the most.

Ok, never used apple mail as in my business, we have over 30+ emails and 300k/month email usage, so we are heavy GSuite users. Apple calendar also didn't work out much for us. I am not a developer so unix/textmate/terminal...ehhh sorry doesn't cut it for me.

I am seeking business productivity tools and stuff like BTT which makes things easy to navigate with 6 browsers and 20+ tabs open at one time etc.
