Copper/Fiber Certifiers/Testers

We have a job coming up that will have enough profit in order to provide our company the means to purchase another OTDR. If money was no object, what is the best OTDR out there? Best manufacturer? I know this is probably highly subjective. The easier to use the better. Not knocking the fiber techs, but it has been my experience that the easier an electronic interface is to use, the more our techs seem to be able to master the system.

On another subject, I have been reading that the new Fluke Cat8 certifiers are considered the standard for copper testing, especially for cat8 instations due to Fluke usually being able to negotiate longer warranties if using their testers.

Would we be wise to consider some sort of combination function testing equipment?
