I switched from the frustrating as hell Razer Ouroboros to the considerably more reliable Roccat Kova 2015. Button layout is excellent and ambidextrous, software is pretty solid, sensor doesn't give me issues and I'm on a cloth pad, and the drivers for Windows and Linux are virtually the same (yes it has native Linux drivers). Only drawback is that it's cable is kinda short, so I had to hook it up to a USB extension cable, but other than that I haven't had any issues with it. Best damn mouse I've had.
^ and god was it hard to get used to. Very sensitive buttons, I've had trouble playing instagib ever since with my m1= vortex, m2= laser and m3= zoom setup.
I've had a Deathadder since 2006-2007, I only got used to the shape and buttons in 2014.
Here's a list of mice I've had/have:
Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical
Microsoft Intelimouse 1.0
Razer Deathadder 3G
Razer Deathadder 3G ESWC edition
Razer Deathadder 3.5G
Steelseries Kinzu v1
Steelseries Xai
Logitech MX518
Fatal1ty 2020
Zowie AM
Zowie FK1
Zowie ZA11
And more importantly, mousepads:
SteelSeries QcK Mini (I have at least 16 of these fucking things)
SteelSeries QcK Mass
SteelSeries QcK+
SteelSeries 4HD
Allsop Raindrop XL
Icemat I-1
Razer Goliathus Speed
Razer Goliathus Control
Puretrak Talent
Artisan Hien Soft L
Artisan Hayate Otsu Soft L

@Champion_The: I got the impression that you didn't choose the right mouse for you. If you know you have special requirements for the side-buttons then why did you pick the Zowie? Zy (the guy doing those YouTube videos I linked to) clearly states that the side-buttons are probably the worst things about this mouse. Ah well...
Edit:
Btw, I'm still using a Logitech MX518. Great mouse with excellent buttons (yes, also side-buttons are easy to click), though sadly it isn't sold any more. If you (talking to everybody) are searching for something similar, maybe the Roccat Kone Pure is worth a try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJE5vhiGNAc
