No, you do not need the Intel provided software, it's mostly just a different user interface to give access to the driver, which is the only thing you actually need for your WiFi card to work properly.
From Microsoft:
The driver for the wireless adapter must implement the wireless LAN device driver model defined by Microsoft for use on Windows 7. To receive the Windows 7 logo, a wireless driver must implement the wireless Hosted Network feature.
. So as long as you have the correct driver, you should be good.
Hope that can help.
