Thanks JD for tagging this topic. Here’s a post which compares the various features of different brands and locks which is a great starting point for folks who’re looking at lock from scratch. It’s good to start with what features you need in your lock to narrow down your choices.
Will try to keep it updated if ST allows:

[RELEASE] Universal Enhanced Z-Wave Lock Driver for Schlage, Yale, Kwikset, IDLock, Popp, Danalock, August Pro, Keywe, Philia, Samsung

Updated comparison table of Z-Wave features available across the various popular lock brands. Capabilities but they tend to similar across models (e.g. Most brand models share very similar features). Schalge BE469/FE599 have been singled out since they are quite different from each other. This is a good starting point for folks to understand what features they would like to have and then go from there: Comparison table moved to first post Would also recommend reading these posts about limitations of specific lock models

Specific locks have specific features, not all locks support programming user over z-wave/zigbee and may need special consideration.
