Exactly the same for me. Although I do not use all tools at the same time, I still feel the money was worth it.

I have thought to do the same with Visual Studio, but VS Community Edition + ReSharper is basically VS Ultimate.

For HexRays... Its a really high price, and its software I don't make full use of, so i just keep working on the older, leaked versions instead.

I don't use every tool, but I still find it worth it. I mostly use PyCharm, WebStorm, DataGrip (if you do any SQL work give it a try!) and of course ReSharper. I don't see Rider as "ready" yet, seems to not support opening up some of my .NET Core solutions still. Hoping it becomes stable and usable like regular VS.
