   I use both for different reasons.   
      
   I've been using ntvdmx64 since I moved my BBS to Windows 10 64-bit last year,   
   and have had mostly good results. All the doors I want to run, run just fine.   
   There were a handful I couldn't run, like Betrayal of the Obsidian Baboon and   
   a few others that I can't recall and frankly don't care about anyway.   
      
   The only reason I ever used (and still use) DOSBox-X is for Yankee Trader,   
   since it's famously known for crashing. Emulating it lets allows it to run   
   just fine crash-free.
