I’ve held off upgrading my Mac Pro to Mountain Lion for fear I would run into compatibility issues, especially with my core website development apps, which include:
Freeway Pro 5.6.5
Adobe CS 5.5
Office 2011
TextWrangler 4.0.1
Transmit 4.2
Now that a few months have passed, how many of you have made the transition? Has it been pretty seamless or have you had issues?

Mountain Lion may have been the least bumpy OS X upgrade I’ve ever done. Almost every app I use just worked. A few said they needed to update for ML, and those were free. I don’t know if that’s because the core of OS X didn’t change much from Lion or because Apple is doing a better job each time with the changes, or both.
If I were you, I’d go to the sites for each of those apps and see what they say about ML compatibility. If the base version you have is the latest, you’re probably fine, perhaps with a free update.
Of course, do the updates on the apps before you upgrade the OS.
