In short: Yes.
Long Answer:
He's great in many facets of the game. His slow is helpful in all raids (even if the toppled tank in AAT is immune to the effects of slow (you can land the debuff but it does nothing), Grievous and the B2 are not). It's got 100% chance to proc and he'll attack twice against anyone who has a slow, AND he has a counterattack. Once it's up, it tends to stay up. Clones with Leia can do P4 of heroic AAT by themselves. Fives is required for that. Clones are a great squad to run in the combat missions in territory battles as well.
His ship is ridiculous. It has one of the highest speed ratings for a ship to begin with, and gives himself turn meter every time he goes (he gives the enemy he hits tm too which is the tradeoff). It is top 3 in combined health and protection. Whenever he attacks with his basic attack he inflicts offense and defense down and will buff wipe them if they are target locked. His secondary special is an irresistible target lock that does massive damage, more and more for every target locked enemy, and will hit ALL target locked enemies as well. It is one of the most versatile ships you can have in your fleet. It is THE most versatile ship from the original crop of ships IMO.
Fives is really good in way too many aspects of the game to not be high on the to farm to 7* list. There are others that are more impressive standalone characters, but Fives is a very good utility character that everyone should have.
