I opted for the distro- agnostic cert the first time around but at some point you'll have to go down the specifics of a particular distro.
My next linux cert will be on suse. I like Yast, and also how well the incorporation in mixed environments is solved, which in my view is much more real scenario than linux- only. That and how vendor approved prep literature in the form of a self- study kit is available at reasonable prices. Exams themselves are equally reasonably priced. Almost none of this can be said of Red Hat exams.
I guess the bottom line is that you'd go the distro- agnostic line when you are just cutting your teeth into linux administration and then go with SUSE, and as you go along and your skills are grown with somebody else paying for the courses and the exam, take on Red Hat.
This is very true and this is the path I am looking to walk as well.
