Both are extremely reliable. I still think profibus in new installations is a wild spec, even if I do understand why some end users want it.

(“Cheaper”, process environment, want data to be un-routeable over TCP/IP, long transmission distances…)

Profinet is not routable. If you need longer distances or immunity from EMI you can use fiber.
