#zigbee-archived and #zwave-archived can guide you on dongles - and the channel history has many SFF (small form factor) recommendations if you hit up search

Also for Zigbee:

Buy something CC2652 based. This list is a good one, both Tube and Electrolama have been proven to have excellent customer service. The current generation of EZSP sticks (see here for some) are also a good choice for ZHA.

Anything CC2530 or CC2531 based should be avoided - they're old, slow, and only suitable for a dozen or so devices. The Sonoff ZBbridge isn't advised since it uses WiFi (built in interference causing stability/reliability issues), and the HUSBZB-1 uses an older chipset so should be avoided.

Finally, the ConBee range are fine with deCONZ, but experience with ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT appears to be mixed.

I'd recommend avoiding the Sonoff P (CC2652) stick as that one has some known hardware issues
