I would like to know if WP All Export (hidden link) works with Toolset custom fields.
I need to export user data with extra fields created by other plugins (such as Toolset, Woocommerce).
Could not find any clear information regarding if WP All Export covers this.
Thanks in advance!

From what I know about that plugin, it doesn't handle User exports out-of-the-box. There is an add-on you can purchase from their site to enable User exports, and it does allow you to export User meta fields as stored in the database by Types.

Can't speak to other plugin fields, unfortunately. Perhaps the WP All Export plugin support team would have more information about WooCommerce and other plugins.

Actually I want to import/export more content than just users.

Can WP All Export be used to export Toolset custom fields´content?

Yes, for the most part it will allow you to export Types' basic post field contents as they are stored in the database. User fields are the main exception, as I mentioned before. Also, I don't think it supports repeatable field group (RFG) values as part of the parent post export. You would have to export those field values with an export of the RFG post type.
