Can't say if one brand is better than another but I recently got a
Superchips for my 2000 Grand Cherokee and it installed with no problems.

They do "lock" to a specific vehicle but if you return one to stock you can
then program another. Just not more than one at a time.

Your best bet is to check the web site for info on your models. Superchips
has been real good with answering specific questions via email.
www.superchips.com Check www.autoanything.com for good pricing.
