Is that your experience? Where I work, I know at least 6 people who switched to zsh, and only one who is still there (everyone else is back on bash). The main problem seems to be that the benefits don't outweigh the problems. The two things which did zsh in for me is finding it not installed on remote machines, and not being able to use it to distribute scripts. On the other hand, bash is everywhere and almost as good.

Yes, that's my experience - nearly all my developer mates switched to ZSH (including me) and never looked back. It's perfectly fine that it's not installed on remote machines, it's not that different from bash for basic stuff - in fact I switched from Bash to ZSH on a couple of machines and nobody even noticed. I find it a significant productivity improvement and had no problems at all.
