Orphaned IRIS user, thinking Hubitat may be the wrong choice

If you dig deep enough in the forums you will see that most of us experienced pain at some point! We can sympathize!!

I migrated from SmartThings last October and had a very tough time with migration. I had to reset my hub a couple of times and re-pair all my (120+) devices - good times. Now things are running great and the WAF is on the upswing...

One big issue for my was my Yale YRD256 z-wave lock. Had lots of difficulty pairing, keeping connected etc. Ended up replacing the module with a zigbee one and everything started working as expected. Locks seem to be tricky things with HE for some reason.

There are a lot of factors in play when setting things up (device type, distance from hub, interference factors etc) - check out the Iris threads, there is a lot of good advice from some very smart people.
