Easiest way to find out if they will be useful for you: Download the 30-day trial versions and give them a try! Use them for your day-to-day work and see if you feel more productive or are writing better code (once you're past the inevitable learning curve, of course).

Firsthand experience with the products in your real-world circumstances is bound to be more meaningful than any speculation that folks who don't know your working environment and coding style would be able to offer, IMHO.
