VXDIAG VCX SE and Scanmatik 2 Pro which is a better J2534 Passthru device for Xentry Passthru software?

Here is the clue.

Scanmatik 2 Pro (SM2 pro) J2534 is great solution for small car repair shops or car repair shops where Mercedes is a frequent but not core brand. With these devices, you can use DAS/Xentry/Vediamo 4/Monaco almost to the fullest. But passenger cars older than 2005 – most likely, not all units will be seen or the car will not be detected at all. Trucks that open via DAS will be ignored right away. But, for example, Xentry Cars 2024.09, Xentry Trucks 23.12 and newer do not officially recognize SD Connect C4 and work fine via Passthru.

VXDIAG VCX SE Benz is the most universal device at the moment, with support for DoIP and fresh versions of Xentry. It can be used with both Xentry Openshell and Passthru version. with Xentry 2023.12 XDOS and it takes everything it needs. In PassThru mode, it works better than Chinese clone of Scanmatic.

On diagnostics of MB w167 2021 year Xentry PT 2023.12 + SM2 did not work. Xentry XDOS 2023.12 + VXDIAG worked. 

It gave Login fail on Xentry Cars 2023.12 Passthru and at the same time were perfectly diagnosed through the same Xentry Cars 2023.12 XDOS with exactly the same set of certificates.

So it is necessary to use both Xentry XDOS and Passthru version. If Passthru fails, use XDOS. In this case, vxdiag vcx se is a better option.
