I don't put much stock into generic gaming aids.
The worst single product for it is the 5E DM guide, because it has next to no useful information in it.
I think for digital gamin,g it has to be foundry. If there is a module for your game of choice, then it's just better then Roll20. The Fabula Ultima module is pretty great.
Roll 20 is a honorable mention because the bar of entry to it is so damn low. It is a pile of jank though.
My graphics tablet is also a great too, I sometimes just sketch things for my group in real time. The same thing can be done with a whiteboard in your gaming room for physical games.
