Question EGPWS

As my main work is as an avionics design engineer (to pay for my flying training), one of the installs I have been involved in a lot recently, because of mandatory regs, is EGPWS in corporate jets.
Have any of you pro pilots flown an EGPWS (Mk22 I think for helis)equipped heli and if so how highly do you rate them??
Do you get a lot of nuisance alerts as helis spend a lot of time in close proximity to the hard stuff?
They do look impressive in the articles but whats the real impression from those who have used them?
