Boost 11  has it's  place. Great for adding a little level  to a signal, but doesn'the quite cut it as a final leveling stage in a master bus

I LOVE the Quad Curve EQ , though. It's great to have that much control on every track

I just rediscovered boost 11 as a  limiter for the kick (BD)
Imo it´s perfect therefor.
The Ca2a and PC2a are awesome modules .

I didn't mean to deter anyone from Boost11. It's just not my preferred choice for a general limiter. It works and does interesting stuff... but I do more "live band" type stuff. Putting it on the master is abrasive to my ears on my material.
 
On a kick or other individual instrument or on the master for less organic styles... sure, might be cool.
 
Everyone should try it and come to their own conclusions. It's there so why the heck not, aye?

I quite like Boost 11. It has its uses. I wouldn't let it anywhere near the master bus, though. It's great on certain kinds of bass sounds. It's cheap and dirty, and sometimes that's what you need. No point sending a priest to do a sinner's job.

I look at all of the plug ins like this:  I have a nut that I want to loosen.  I can do this with a wrench, but the flexible drive socket is easier and more efficient. 
 
I try to use the one that sounds the best for a given job...
That may vary depending on the source and how it was captured.

Yes, every penny (cent, shekel etc)

The tools included in Soar are perfectly goo, but I love the PC modules, both th included ones in Platinum, and the extra ones. 
 
I have all of them (including 3rd party ones by Softube, Overloud etc.) except the latest EQ by Boz.
 
It is great to have a wide choice of tools to cover various different applications.  As others have said, the Ca2a is particularly good.

What's the deal? Aren't the default Sonar plugins good enough? 

 
To the OP - I've been a dedicated Sonar user for about 15 years and I STILL love the Sonitus plugins.  I think they are a great set of fundamental tools and effects!  They're not trying to emulate, color or pass themselves off as being anything other than what they are - Well made plugins that sound great and get the job done! 
 
Spend your time making music - not chasing sound.
