I chose hptuners because of its pricing structure, top notch customer support & low cost real time tuning solution. You really can't go wrong.

From: tuned over 400 GM cars & trucks-- from stock to wild--Including Duramax diesel
Ditto on EFILIVE--I purchased mine from Jesse at WAIT 4 ME--- THE BEST BY FAR--
I researched them all and I am so happy with EFILIVE.
PS---JESSE is the MAN !!!!! I was trained by Jesse and he is excellent and very personalble and patient with computer tuning newbies like i was at 1st .Highly reccomended---always availiable for support and tricky tunes.--I have not had even 1 complaint on the method of tuning that he taught me--and i have tuned over 200 cars !!!

Personally I went with HPTuners, much better interface in my opinion. Plus it is very easy to navigate and understand the tables. The pricing structure is also great, and backed by THE best customer service. I am very happy with them.

Only package that offers a free demo to try out before purchasing. That speaks for the software.
http://download.efilive.com/software...16_540_467.exe
Use it before you buy it.

EFILive by far I have both softwares and found EFILive's interface a lot easier to work with and understand the software just flat out rocks check the dload link posted above for a free spin of the software and all its goodies. Our current hardware offering old and new covers all the things anyone would ever want from a Scanner/Tunning package

I searched around for a while before I decided which to buy. I found the HPTuners credits system a PITA to work out. Not a good selling point. On the other hand EFILive had the demo version & with a few tunes downloaded from the Holden crazy had me planning my purchase there & then. Not to mention the V1 sellout made it much more affordable.

thanks magnus.
I still need to know which software is more user friendly.
can it be used as a scanner.
What are the limitations of the software?
Can it be used on more than one pcm?
Does hptuner have lists of tunes or bins in a directory somewhere that users can try when they buy the program?

sorry gotta lock this... too many times in the past these threads have turned into bitch fests (usually overnight while the mods are sleeping) ...
Basically the answers you're going to get here about which is most user friendly will depend on what software the person posting uses lol
