basicly such questions mostly end in a flamewar.
But it depends why you want to chose
The biggest differences for a company will possibly ibe the company that gives support.
and how it runs on your platform you want to run it on.
and one other option you could use to select one is what special feature you want to to have what is only aviable in taste X.

UML_SWITCH(1) General Commands Manual UML_SWITCH(1)
NAME
uml_switch -- switch daemon for user-mode Linux
SYNOPSIS
uml_switch [-unix control_socket data_socket] [-hub] [-tap tun device] [-compat-v0] [-daemon]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the uml_switch program.
This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
uml_switch is a daemon for managing a virtual network between user-mode Linux systems, with no connection to the host system's network.
It will listen for connections on a pair of UNIX domain sockets, and forward packets between clients which connect to them.
OPTIONS
-unix control_socket data_socket
Listen on the specified pair of sockets, instead of the defaults.
-hub Act like a hub. This means that packets received will be broadcast over all virtual links. The default is to act as a switch,
where packets are only sent to the link matching the destination MAC address of the packet.
-tap tap device
Connect the switch to a dynamically created tap device on the host
-compat-v0
Specify control protocol version 0 compatibility.
-daemon Run in the background as a daemon.
