I have both, actually, so yes.  My Zimbra server is all my day to day  
personal e-mail, including but not limited to calendar collaboration  
with family members.  In addition, $DAY_JOB has me on an Exchange  
server. :-)

I find that they are about equal in terms of their "occasions to quirk".

Zimbra will never be accused of being exchange-like in its GUI or  
anything like that, but it appears for all intents and purposes to  
support EAS just fine, and - like I said - I just told Apple Mail that  
"zimbra.megacity.org" was an Exchange server and it happily said "OK,  
great! I got it"... same with my Palm Pre (which is happily syncing  
mail, contacts, and calendar).

We're also using 2k7 at work, and I'll admit it's better than previous  
iterations.

Of that, it would sound, I have little doubt.
