+1 for Astroplanner. The other thing that can be incredibly helpful for visual and imaging work alike is building a custom horizon for each observing site you configure. Allows you to know when an object is going to be visible, or obstructed behind a tree or building. Very rare for me not to use this almost everytime my telescope comes out. Stellarium etc fantastic for navigating, but Astroplanner the starting point often what objects to chase and where the moon will be. Also helps you figure out best months if you really want to see something not currently visible.
