JG> 1. Which of the two systems would you recommend, and why?

Synchronet.  It is open source, you don't have to be a programmer to change
parts of it (I figured out how to customize some of the javascript bits),
and the author is responsive and accessible.  It does have more of a
learning curve.  I came from DOS BBSing where I had to know how to edit
configuration files (plural) so Synchronet was not that much different in
that regard.  There are utilities that handle most of those config files if
you prefer not to edit them yourself.

It also has a web board built in.  It is actually a web server so you can
host other pages on it also, i.e.  otherpage.yourbbsdomain.net.
