I too have used org-mode for a while and here are some additional features which may pique your interest:
- agenda views let me create custom pages of tasks with certain states or tags
- a robust time tracking system. I use this for my freelancing work
- very nice text tables that are programmable
- a very customizable capturing system
- a huge ecosystem of plugins
- a programmable API: I'm currently working on an importer for the DayOne app as well as a fitness tracking package
- PDF export with LaTeX. I can use this for printing out my weekly plan for example
- in addition to deadlines, a scheduled property for when you intend to start a task
- extensive linking system (https://orgmode.org/guide/Hyperlinks.html#External-Links-1) I often have todos linking to places in code
I think that org-mode could use better learning resources. There's pretty much the manual and blog posts by experienced users, neither are especially aimed towards new users.
