Personally, I really value the fact that tmux has a nice, clean api to manage windows and panes. I have a few scripts which run a bunch of tmux commands to create new windows with multiple panes for logging/consoles/source code for an individual service. Being able to use send-keys(http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/tmux.1#send-keys http://man.openbsd.org/OpenBSD-current/man1/tmux.1#send-keys) has been amazing for automating things like this. I'm sure that other tools that I'm not aware of can do this sort of thing, but I find it to be quite productive.
