Dominik,
Interesting question. Before I read all the responses, my answer was going to be UltraRecall, as it’s got such a powerful mix of functionality.
As I read the responses to this point, the database responses took me by surprise a bit. So I thought, “What app do I use to build databases?” I’m not a programmer or a DBA, but I do use MySQL to analyze medium to large data sets.
For smaller data sets, I use MDE InfoHandler. InfoHandler can do much of what UR can, but in a very different way. I think its incredibly flexible tagging system makes analysis of certain data sets easier.
In the end, I’d choose UR. Its fit and finish are much better that IH, so it’s much easier for me to use. But I think IH is a strong contender.
As a sidenote: what one app would I miss the most? Adobe Lightroom. Managing pictures without it would be dreadful.

It would have to be ADM for me.
I noticed that you didn’t give us a word processor, so I almost chose Word. But then I remembered I can get pretty good word processing with Google Apps, and I can also get basic RTF word processing with ADM.
All my info is in ADM and until I find a replacement, I’m lost without it.
