I have 3 bikes with hookless rims. No problems. I have Zipp 303s that are almost 2 years old and two sets of BTLOS rims that are hookless with a 25mm internal width and have no spoke access holes, so no rim tape is needed. Some brands allow their 28mm tires to be used with 25mm IW rims and some don't. I've had the best results with Pirelli P-Zero tubeless tires.

I've also used Michelin tubeless, but they suffer from bead stretch over time. If the air is let out to replenish sealant, the bead doesn't remain seated well enough to be reinflated with the valve core in place. I've never found factory info on hookless compatibility.
