I have a MBP mid-2012 upgraded with 16gb ram and 500gb SSD.
I have it loaded with many apps including
MS office 2011
iWork suite
FCP
Toast
Bluray player app
Adobe suite cs6
Java
etc....
What apps will not work after the upgrade ?
MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra (10.12), Mid-2012, 13", 16gb ram, 500gb. SSD
Of note, Final Cut Studio will not work in High Sierra.

I have Photoshop CS6 and it works just fine in HS, as do Keynote, Numbers and Pages.
Microsoft released a statement with regard to Office:
Microsoft Office support for macOS 10.13 High Sierra - Office Support
As of October 10th, Office 2011 will no longer be supported. I, recently, bit the bullet and upgraded to Office 2016 in preparation for High Sierra. For Office 2016, you must be running version 15.35 or higher to be compatible with High Sierra (15.38 is the current release).
Well, I know for sure that Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac will not work with Mac OS High Sierra. You can download Microsoft Office 2016 here. You can view the page here. You need a license to create and edit documents, but you can view without buying Office 2016 or an Office 365 subscription.
Also, Office 2011 loses support on October 10. Therefore Microsoft has done any testing for Office 2011, and they are not going to.
I hope this helps.
My MS Office 2011 QUIT WORKING after upgrading to High Sierra, as well as Creative Suite 4; Both would not launch the app or open files correctly. Had to nuke everything and downgrade back to Sierra and reinstall everything just to finish my work that week. (Didn't think to make a more recent back-up before upgrading - My Bad!)
Had to pony up and buy Office 2016 and CS 6 to have the same programs I was using without problems. Just not ready to go to Creative Cloud yet since I don't use CS everyday and it's really an expensive subscription. I bought newer versions because I really did like the new version of Safari that blocks those annoying auto-play videos and will be upgrading back up to High Sierra in the coming days AFTER of course I make an up-to-the-minute-before upgrading
Check with the app vendors.
Microsoft is no longer supporting office 2011, however, office 2011 does work on High Sierra.
I am using it now along with 2008 and 2016 and office 365.
Office 2011 may be working for you, but there are probably broken features and properties. Microsoft is NOT supporting it, so if anything goes wrong, you'd be outta luck. To avoid that risk, good to consider updating to Office 2016 or simply abandoning the product for something else.

Microsoft Office 2011 does work on High Sierra. I am using it.
Yes, MS 2011 does work. , I had only reported what the Roaring Apps showed. I have Office 2008, Office 2011, and Office 2016 open all at the same time.
They are dropping support for Office 2011 but it works just fine on High Sierra
Despite the fact that MS Office 2011 works fine on High Sierra, support will end soon. I have decided to go with iWorks, Pages for example, for a trial period instead of upgrading MS Office. I have been using Pages as my default Word reader and it opens Word docs just fine.

You must install the most recent updates to 2011. There won't be any more updates to it, but the most recent ones should allow it to run in High Sierra. 2016 is better, in my opinion, than 2011, but Microsoft hasn't produced a fully usable version of Word for the Mac since v.5.x.
Apple's software Page, Numbers and Keynote are compatible with the MS Office application. Pages can read & open Word files as well as exporting a Pages file to a Word format. The same for Numbers to Excel and Keynote to PowerPoint.

Compatibility list for High Sierra ?
