Well, my productivity has risen dramatically. The choice argument fails for me, because I use 2 monitors for the applications I use most frequently, and the 3rd monitor is a catch all for everything else.
So, for example, when doing front end programming, 1 monitor contains my terminal windows where I am programming in VIM, running commands, etc (I usually have 4 open in each corner) while the other window contains the live reloading browser window.
The 3rd monitor has everything else. No paradox of choice, and seeing the results of my actions is a glance.
The physical spatial arrangement of my work tools is of tremendous value.
Personally, I've seen a much greater productivity improvement by getting rid of laptops, and only working with desktops in a specific work area with multiple monitors and a desk laid out in a way that helps with my productivity.
I am working less hours, and doing a lot more in those fewer hours.
