Which trading platform has the best level 2 ?

I am currently on Streetsmart edge and really like it. I am not crazy about the TOS level 2 . It seems to be missing a lot of data.

I have heard of DAS and Sterling having good level 2.
 
We offer Lightspeed and Sterling. Both have a Level 2 display. Lightspeed offers a Level 1 Bundle which, in a level 2 window, shows all the exchanges and ECNs one time. We also offer Level 2 data. On Sterling, we have no bundle but you get a choice of some Level 1 and many Level 2 including Nasdaq Total view vs just Level 2. Total view shows all the market makers vs just 30 levels. All level 2 data is very expensive.

Go Jigsaw if you can. They have a very sophisticated DOM with a lots of settings to choose from. But it lacks any programming language behind it.

NinjaTrader 8 has a very basic DOM, but there is 3rd party DOM called SuperDOM by https://tradingorderflow.com/ that at least looks dog's b...ks and apparently it had 10,000+ sales. Its cheaper then Jigsaw. Good thing about this combo is that you get C# programming language under the bonnet. Because, you know, one day you want to stop sitting in a front of screen whole day, and you want to start automating a bit.
 
This is our Level 2 display using the Level 1 Bundle. Below that is Level 2 with 5 levels of NASDAQ but 1 level of the others. I can't show the entire window.

I checked lightspeed. It is fine but I am looking for free trades or almost free trades.

So far besides the big one like Fidelity, TOS, I have found Tradezero. I think they are free if you have more than 250K
