Pick iPerf2 if…
It suits people who need to measure TCP or UDP network behavior across supported platforms, including self-hosted setups. The socket-level measurement limit and lack of interoperability with iPerf3 matter when choosing it.
Pick SmokePing if…
SmokePing suits users who can maintain a self-hosted network monitoring installation and want latency, variation, and packet-loss graphs. Its probes and configurable alarms also suit monitoring across varied network targets.
