The Mac Pro Lives

Big items for me on MacOS

* Drag-and-drop automation, scripting and workflow tools. I love folder actions.

* Built-in screen recording in QuickTime Player, which also works with attached iOS devices

* Time Machine backups. So easy to use and has saved my bacon over and over

* iMovie and Photos. I don't use the rest of the bundled apps, both those two are essentials for me.

I literally don't know what I'd do if I didn't have the capability of Automator combined with completely-customizable keyboard shortcuts everywhere. It's seriously a power user's dream.

TimeMachine is really great. Does anyone have experience with the Windows 10 backups? I know the Windows 7 one was dire.

I agree, all of these are part of why MacOS is just more ready for work out of the box.
