That highly depends on what you want and what you need.

Shera's design is definitly one of the simplest GPSDOs out there.
And with that it defines what the lowest complexity to get something
accurate is. If the performance of this circuit is enough for you,
i wouldn't go for anything else. Of course, if you need better performance
or want to tinker and see what can be done with home made equipment, then
you should go for different circuits.
