Sorry but I strongly disagree. Topic is a bit wide and all but software vs software is real deal not just fan wars.
As one example.. character animation inside Max compared to ANY other software... Most of animators I know unless then don;t know anything else but max will say big NO to character animation in Max. That is the pain! :) So yes everything else probably is better for character animation then Max. Then same goes for bunch of other topics.. some things are simply better made and better workflow then others..
