It will work, but limit you to a pure-cisco environment. Which, for
many, is enough reason not to touch EIGRP with a 10-foot-pole.
We're happy users of EIGRP since many years - and it has quite some
advantages (debugging why certain paths are selected seems to be much
easier to me in EIGRP than in OSPF/ISIS, and you can do some TE tricks
that a link-state protocol just can't do).
OTOH if I had to re-do our network from scratch, I might go with ISIS,
to get integrated IPv4/IPv6. Just have one routing protocol to maintain.
(But maybe not - so if IPv4 routing breaks, IPv6 routing might still work)
