its pretty well going to come down to this
If you want to just tune/flash NA cars and maybe some turbo/SC stuff using standard factory ECU code ie no fancy stuff like launch/FFS or flex fuel map switch or overboost protection then get Brzedit even if its just for logging. As your going to need at least a reliable logger for the many rom types and brzedit or just an Ecutek cable kit will let you log any rom type without a licience in ecu.
Unless your an ECU disassembly and code guru then your completely at the mercy of the very few that are, for stuff like logging ram address and any code patches you need for the extra features. Most work in their spare time on what suits them or their car and they wont in general be keen to spend heaps of time for you on your stuff especially if your the one who is going to onsell the stuff and make money out of it.
Even if you do become proficient at coding and disassembly it will take many many hours to develop patches test them and then apply to the various roms. Once you start messing with the actual ecu code a single mistake can result in a bricked ECU, or unreliable or unpredictable performance on the vehicle.
Which pretty well leaves you with Ecutek if you want all the fancy stuff, reliable support for any bugs or if you somehow brick an ecu.
The Brzedit guy seems a bit hit and miss with support
