I don't think you'll miss anything. If pihole works for you, then there is no need to switch to adguard.
One thing I found helpful is configuring my router (asuswrt-merlin) to transparently route all dns request to my adguard instance. You might already heard that some apps and IoT devices tried to be clever and hard-coded their dns server so they can evade dns blocking (I'm looking at you Netflix). If your router support redirecting all dns request to a custom dns server, definitely use it!
I'm looking into custom firmware for my router. I'll edit it in when I get home if someone doesn't guess it, but it looks super cool
