So far, Word and Excel 2016 are working fine on my MacPro running 10.15.2.

I’m disappointed in some of what I’ve experienced in Premiere.  I’ve noticed that some third-party effects that were accelerated on my 2012 MacPro with Titan X CUDA are not even close to parity or better on the AMD card.  That’s sad.  Colorista IV is super slow to render, and laggy on the interface that has icons that disappear.

Ae seems fine, but I haven’t done that much with it.  Most of my plugs that worked on High Sierra work on Catalina, and only a few were rewritten or updated for it.  The new Red Giant management software lost several of my authorizations, and won’t let me get authorized until they all return from a long holiday.

You need to find a replacement for QT Player/Pro 7.  I’m using VLC as the default app for .mov and .mp4, etc.

My general advice is to run Mojave if it’s an option.  I don’t trust any OSX below 10.x.5.  But, I had no choice.  I’m a reluctant adopter.

So who has taken the plunge, especially MacBook Pro users? I primarily use FCPx and Adobe Suite plus MS Office on my MacBook Pro. I did have a lot of music apps but moved most of that except Logic and Garageband which I barely use to Windows 10 box for several reasons (very slow Catalina support, internal SSD space for samples etc.).
