I’m fine with the stock PT desser. Things that have helped me: assist the plugin by clip gaining standout esses. De-ess last, after all vocal processing is final. And don’t de-ess in solo. Same. I've started to try using 2. One before compression, one after. Both doing less than one would do. Not sure if it's better than just having one at the end of the chain, but it worked well for the mix I just did. I used different frequencies for each, an octave apart. 5k pre-comp, 10k post-comp, IIRC. I wish all singers were aware and had the technique to suppress them, or could hear it and think "I can fix that myself". I've had that kind of good fortune only a handful of times.

I use the airwindows De-esser lately and it sounds really very unintrusive. Before I used the Harrison XTool Deesser, which unfortunately is not available in AVA plugins for other DAWs than Mixbus. It sounds very unintrusive, too, like many of their dynamics and EQs, like spectral compressor or a classic multiband. Very natural due to the seamless band type technology they use ... BTW, the SPL De-Esser did always handle S'es with a different approach that auto-detected S'es and removed them dynamically with phase cancellation. The detection included frequency and bandwidth, so it sounds very unobtrusive and is easy to dial in. Probably THE De-Esser for a long time. I did no shootout with more modern deessers, but I bet it holds up very well.
