Still using it everyday here at Janimation, but the end is getting to be in sight.
Yet the path for us is not clear yet. Maya looks like its headed in the right direction, I am hopeful. Houdini just seems a bit heavy handed for a lot of our work. C4d with Arnold looks great for a good deal of our work, but the character tools are not so good, and it does not seem to scale well. Modo seems like the sanest of the apps from a UI and design POV, but its animation speed makes fairly useless for anything complicated. Max, I simply do not like, a pile of plug ins ready to fall apart.
