I think that Poser, using the Daz model line and accessories, not to mention many 3rd party accessories, allows you to do some great work. You go to many sites where somebody has posted a render or animation of a new human model they have made and, while I'm sure they've put a lot of work into it and are very proud of it, the truth is that almost nothing out there short of the work being done for feature films and high-end games comes even close to Poser/Daz. Anothor unfortunate truth, however, is that there is a crying need for simple and reliable export/import for Poser/Daz into popular 3D programs. I use Cinema 4DXL7 on the Mac, and have had some success with using V3 in it (via Poser and the XL7 plug-in), but it is really like pulling teeth with all the back-and-forth, and now I've been wanting to switch over to 4D8 on OSX, but there is no OSX plug-in for C4D, nor is there, I suspect, a simple way to work with Daz models in many other applications. I really think that Poser/Daz would do itself a huge favor, and would see an explosion of interest and usage--and of course, sales--if they concentrated on broadening the use of its models and application into the broader world of 3D software.
