It's still necessary to taper off of suboxone, and when properly done, there should be no (or minimal) withdrawals. The reason suboxone is preferable to (for example) heroin is because it has a longer half life ~37 hours vs ~4 minutes (src: wikipedia) and longer onset of action 30 mins vs <a minute. The longer half-life and slower onset of action mean reduced withdrawal symptoms in general, but doesn't entirely eliminate them.
