I built the same procedural animation twice — once in Cavalry, once natively in After Effects. Cavalry is free now, and its noise and duplicator setups are genuinely well designed. But most of what makes them feel so good already exists inside After Effects, and almost nobody uses it.
We build it in Cavalry first, then we go back to After Effects and rebuild it natively — no plugins, no third-party anything. And at the end I push it further than either version using Mograph Effector 2.0 in After Effects! If you've ever wondered whether you need to switch, this should answer it.
