I’ve over 40 zigbee devices and am currently using ZHA but keep seeing people recommending using zigbee2mqtt. But I can’t work out if it’s worth the time re-importing all the devices or not.

What are the benefits of using zigbee2mqtt over ZHA and is it easy to move over if that’s the best way to go?

    I’m shocked nobody has mentioned it, but the primary advantage of Zigbee2MQTT is the ability to run Z2M on a machine different from HA. ZHA unfortunately doesn’t allow for this, which is a shame because my Z2M box (RasPi) is centrally located but my HA box is not.
