I'm currently using ZCPR33 (you really ought to go with that one
because most of the Z-system utilities are Z33 or better specific).
My BDOS replacement of choice is NovaDOS because if I ever run into
a program that requires ZRDOS compatibility, I'll be ready.
However, if you need timestamping, Z80DOS is your better choice.
Plus, if you decide to go NovaDOS, there are a few slight glitches
in it that Lindsay Haisley (the author) and I have gone through.
You might want to send me email to me at the address below and I'll
tell you what's going on.  Like I said, if you don't look forward
to time-stamping, but would like ZRDOS compatibility, NovaDOS is
for you; however if you're planning on doing time-stamping, Z80DOS
is for you.
