I tried the procomm+ test drive until mskermit 3.0 came out, then I
switched to kermit for network use.  Kermit 3.0 has the absolute best
VT102 terminal emulation I've seen (after a little tuning) and, of
course, it has the best kermit protocol.  But no zmodem.  Then rbcomm
3.3 appeared.  It has a really great zmodem implementation.  I've only
just started using it, so I may be forming my opinions prematurely, but
I plan to continue using kermit for Unix and rbcomm for BBS.
All BBSs that I know provide zmodem or kermit protocol.
