APM: Signoz vs Apache SkyWalking (alien.top)

I'm looking for an open source APM to serve as a base for data collection which would get ingested into a product which my team would be building.

I found Signoz and SkyWalking to be complete products which gives Logs, Traces as well as Metrics, which I believe is good in the long run, to have all the data available.

I have a couple of doubts:

Is that are there any major advantages of using one over the other?
Should I instead be looking at something more popular like Prometheus/Jaeger? Since they have better support.

Would really appreciate any inputs. Thanks!

As far as I know, Prometheus doesn't do APM - it's primarily a metrics products (e.g. you can't click metrics to see relevant traces which cause increase in say the latency) You need to tie it up with some product which does tracing and that would be non-trivial.

Don't know much about SkyWalking to comment
