Is ChessBase worth it?

So recently, I've been looking at ChessBase and was wondering if it's worth it? As far as I'm aware it's used by a lot of the top GM's, and a lot of club-level players use it as well and I wanted to hear peoples thoughts to see if they've found it useful or not. Looking at the website it seems these are what a premium membership offers:

Playchess.com:

Of course this is a nice addition, but it doesn't really seem like it offers anything chess.com offers.

Tactic Training:

Like Playchess.com, this also is nice, but there are a lot of free online tactics trainers (for instance the one here) so I don't know if this is something I'd use often (plus I usually do puzzles from books on my chessboard).

Live chess:

This just seems like another chess broadcaster, cool but chess.com, chess24, and lichess offer this for free.

Videos:

Okay, now if these are as good as they make them seem, then I'm interested. Herman Grootan's and Kartsten Muller's videos series seem especially interesting to me out of the bunch (as I'm a weaker at endgames and positional chess) so I'm curious on what others think of the videos.

Live Database:

So currently I use lichess's database as my main opening/game database, so I'm curious if others think ChessBase's database is better, and if so by how much?

Let's Check Cloud:

This appears to be a feature where you can input an opening position, and it'll let you know if it's good, bad, and the engine continuation. I'm not sure how often I'd use it, but it does seem like a nice feature.

Fritz Online:

It appears Fritz is ChessBase's engine of choice. The only engine I've ever really used is Stockfish, so I'm curious if people have a preference between the two or if there's no real difference.

Openings:

So, as far as I'm aware the main reason a lot of people use ChessBase is for openings. Currently what I do for my opening files is I'll put the PGN in a private lichess study and just use that when I need to go over it. I'm curious about what players think of ChessBase's opening feature, and how good it actually is?

My Games Cloud:

This looks like a place to save games of your's and others to analyze. Currently for my games, I just upload the ones I wanna study on a lichess study, but I wonder what others think of this feature ChessBase offers?

Players-Database:

This seems like a place to look up specific players and look at their games database. Seem useful if you're studying a specific GM's games, or opening preparation against people in OTB chess.

Studies:

When I click on it it doesn't have a description lol, but what I assume it is (and please correct me if I'm wrong) is an endgame study collection, which is a nice feature as it can be hard to find studies.

Quiz:

This looks fun, but probably something I wouldn't do very often lol.

ChessBase New:

I get most of my chess new from this website and YouTube, but I'm interesting in what people think of ChessBase's

Okay, so this was a bit of a lengthy post lol but any advice is greatly appreciated!

I only have chessbase because my coach told me to get it. I hear SCID vs. PC is a good alternative to chessbase, although I wouldn't be quite sure. It's good for saving preparation and other things that you might need to review in places where there is no internet connection.

I don't have it myself but I remembering hearing that it is worth the investment once you reach 2000 OTB rating. I don't remember who said it.

Thank you for the advice!

That makes some sense

I have the Chessbase app on my phone, which is an $8 or so app. It's nice to have a pocket sized version of the database, which I use all the time. It's nicer than Lichess's opening database. I use Lichess's study feature to keep track of my own repertoire.

Thank you!

Thank you for the response! Yeah one of the things I like about lichess studies, is that they're pretty simple whereas ChessBase looks a bit complicated (and I am stupid with technology lol).

So, does the chessbase phone app give you access to the players database as well?

I recently bought a copy of Fritz 12 off Ebay for $8 with no shipping and handling. It was in perfect condition. Years ago I had a copy of Fritz 5 but I was turned off by the interface because it wasn't nearly as intuitive as Chessmaster but I had read that Friitz 12 has a completely new interface and decided to try it. It is greatly improved over Fritz 5 and I'm glad I bought it. I wouldn't pay $90 or whatever they are charging for the latest version because I don't see much difference in the versions after Fritz 12. I would recommend getting an older copy for a fraction of what the latest edition costs. I use Stockfish as the main engine.

I may have to take back my endorsement. It isn't taking the key. It didn't really matter because everything was working fine until I tried to start an engine match and it asked for a cd. I inserted the original dvd but it doesn't recognize it. Other than that (and that is a big that) its a beautiful program. I guess $8 dollars is better than losing $80. That's life.
