New Mac User

I recently converted from windows vista when I bought my macbook pro. I really love the laptop as well as Mac OS. My old laptop was an Asus G2s gaming laptop that had gpu temperature issues. I am however finding myself frustrated with the most common problem, it seems, as most ex-windows users. Maximizing windows as well as having a "click to" corners and sides of screens option. I really don't want a sloppy third party program running in the background to give me this functionality, but when I'm trying to multitask I'm afraid i might not have any other options. My old laptop had a really helpful program from the manufacturer that did this for me called asus multiframe. It could seperate any windows into separate halves or quarters of the screen as well. If anyone could help point me in the right direction or give me any advice it would be awesome.
