Is Z-Box Hub necessary or beneficial for using Zooz devices through HE?

Potentially silly question, but didn't find anything about this on the community forum. I'm planning on setting up a new HE installation (C7 hub) and thinking about using zooz in-wall switches (specifically the S2 TOGGLE SWITCH ZEN73).

Is there any benefit to using the Z-Box Hub alongside HE or can I just add those devices directly into HE? Basically wondering if this is like a Lutron sorta thing or can I just skip the Z-Box Hub?

@Marvinyx It's just a z-wave hub. Nothing magical about it giving their products something over Hubitat.

Its just another Z-wave hub, it would replace HE not work with it. Since we have some great community drivers for the Zooz switches :wink: you will get all features and settings right on HE. [DRIVER] Zooz ZEN Switches Advanced (and Dimmers)

Okay, this is what I wanted to know. That's great to hear. I suspected as much, but didn't want to assume. Thanks!

Because we all know what happens when we "■■■-u-me"! DOH!
