The undertext here seems to be the age-old dilemma whether to use one software for everything or to use a tool-chain of several specialist software. I’m in favour of the latter, simply because the world is constant flux and therefore that one software is destined to become inadequate in relation to the environment and, by wanting to please a lot of common ground, it will include some specialist needs.

The latter option then requires 1) a conscious design of the workflow and the tool-chain, 2) appropriate tools for integration between elements of the tool-chain (export-import compatibility, access to a common data source (Dropbox), including separate tools that manage the transfer of data in meta-layer (utilities that help you copy and paste easily, arrange & move windows across several monitors) etc.).
