I am sitting here using "Model Builder" in ArcMap, a GIS software, and wishing I was using Grasshoper.
Model Builder allows you to automate the tools in ArcGIS. The interface has nothing on Grasshopper. Nothing. The attached image is a testament to David Rutten's amazing work on the Grasshopper interface. This is what Grasshopper should not have looked like.
The only things that Model Builder wins on are:
it has a lot of built-in capability for loops and other script-centric processes (but it only runs when you tell it to, no live interactivity)
you can output the entire "definition" or "model" as a python script
I intend to develop workflows between GIS and Grasshopper, so if anyone has any suggestions or ideas, let me know. For now my plan consists of a lot of dwg files and excel sheets.
