I have Z-Wave.me UZB and it seems to work fine. I don't have stick controller to compare but for now it has done everything I need. It doesn't have inclusion button or internal battery so if your house is big and your homeserver is heavy you will have good excercise to include all fixed nodes.
My HG running on Win 7 64bit. The latest HG update R466 broke the detection of events from battery powered sensors like Fibaro door switch.
And if you are planning to have Fibaro products there is one mistake in their inclusion/exclusion procedure. Pressing the inclusion button three times is not enough. Keep clicking until leds are blinking like they should when in inclusion mode. Remember to add contoller node (1) to association groups of the new node. If you have battery powered devices do the config right after inclusion.
