I've used Brultech in a house before. It's not very user friendly to setup having to download some different firmware flashing tools and configure everything in a brittle web UI that only allows one browser tab at once. But it does have Ethernet, comes with a variety of different CT clamps. The donut style CT clamps are very compact making it easy to fit them into a electrical box. Don't use the built-in one, use the HACS integration. The different sizes make me think that the Brultech is probably more accurate than the Emporia with only a single size.
I ended up going with Emporia Vue2 for my own house given the complexity and my house layout not really permitting the Brultech's install.
