I like how easily it integrates with Adobe Creative Cloud products including Adobe Fonts and Google Fonts.

Worked for a couple of months. Then they changed to a subscription model, and it suddenly became virtually useless. Every time I reboot my computer I have to open the application and deactivate, then reactivate fonts. This process takes several minutes...

I like Font Book on Apple products because it's one place that holds all the fonts available, but you can also add fonts you find online, whether they be free or paid fonts. You can easily add them by just dragging the font file over to Font Book.

Can get a little overwhelming at times if you have too many fonts.
