No, you can use quotas as well with ZFS.

Also note, as a more general statement:

Disk quotas are supported by most modern operating systems,
including Unix-like systems, such as AIX (using JFS or JFS2
filesystem), Linux (using ext3, ext4, ext2, XFS (integrated
support) among other filesystems), Solaris (using UFS or ZFS),
Microsoft Windows starting with Windows 2000, Novell NetWare,
VMS, and others. The method of administration for disk quotas
varies between each of these operating systems. Unix-like
systems typically provide a quota command for both administration
and monitoring; graphical front-ends to the command may also
be used. Unix and Unix-like operating systems frequently feature
a grace period where users may exceed their quota limits for a
brief period of time. Windows 2000 and newer versions use the
"Quota" tab of the disk properties dialog. Other systems provide
their own quota management utilities.
