It's a good model, for what it is. Z.ai's big business prop is that you can get Claude Code with their GLM models at much lower prices than what Anthropic charges. This model is going to be great for that agentic coding application.

I pay for both Claude and Z.ai right now, and GLM-4.7 is more than capable for what I need. Opus 4.5 is nice but not worth the quota cost for most tasks.

well I feel like all models are converging and maybe claude is good but only time will tell as gemini flash and GLM put pressure on claude/anthropic models
People (here) are definitely comparing it to sonnet so if you take this stance of saving a few dollars, I am sure that you must be having the same opinion of using opus model and nobody should use sonnet too
Personally I am interested in open source models because they would be something which would have genuine value and competition after the bubble bursts
