I should add: A lot of software are advertising this feature where they automatically update your tags by an online database. While this is initially handy, every software that I've used that has done this has messed up at some point, and going back to fix these tags retrospectively has been more trouble than it was worth.
The best software that I've used for tagging is MP3Tag (it works for FLAC too, despite the title). It allows tags convert to filename, filename to tags, and more importantly:
1. Text file to tags. If you have an excel spreadsheet, you could export that as a csv and define/map the fields. This allows you to update multiple files at once, instead of typing them in one by one.
2. Scripts. These allow you to, say, capitalize the first letter or a word, and a variety of string manipulations.
I haven't had any experience with Catraxx or Media Monkey; in my opinion, choosing a music management software depends primarily on if you like the layout, assuming free software like MP3Tag could handle the tagging. If a comprehensive, all-in-one, solution is what you're looking for, then there needs to be more trial and error, since what the feature set list doesn't tell you is how the workflow would match your habits.
