Instead of listening to fanboys, how about some concrete advice on how to manage YOUR car and YOUR situation?
Who will be doing your troubleshooting and maintenance?
Are you a DIY er? (Sounds like no if you cannot do a simple flash in you garage)
I would pick the flash that YOUR LOCAL TUNER is the most comfortable with.... if issues arise and they've made their money off of the tune they sold, they have more of a vested interest in fixing it.
Find a tuner/mechanic...THEN find the flash.

I have EPL also and they provided me a map specific to my elevation and available gas. My car runs so much smoother in every gear. Ideally you get a tune that is capable of data logging so you can send files back and forth to your tuner to adjust as needed. I think EPL has something like this in the works also. With that ability there is less of a need to actually bring your car to a specific shop. In my situation it would realistically be the only option as there are no shops around here at 6500 feet. Having my car tuned at sea level really wouldn't provide a realistic view of how the car performs at elevation.
Not a fanboi, just a happy customer.

I should clarify. I am a fanboy too...
But I don't presuppose that what works for me will work for everyone. When you look at the guys that choose UMW, there is an interesting common thread within the personalities of those owners. IMO. What defines a Switzer fan, or EPL, or Vivid/softronic fan??.... kind of interesting to see how people fall into their own decisions.
My point is that a flash is not a 'part', it is more of a relationship...
