Both use the same panel. I'd buy whatever you can find cheapest 
I'd suggest the AOC and MSI versions too.
I have the AOC, and I can't fault it.

Without having looked at specific reviews of those displays don't think there is a wrong answer there really, though so far I've been pretty happy with my Philips monitor purchases.
EDIT: From a quick Google most people seem to say the Philips is slightly better as a general purpose display, the Alienware has features/optimisations a little more tweaked towards gaming use.

well last week i bought the LG Ultragear 34gs95qe but wasnt as good as I expected so changed it for the samsung g8 but it was more like a smart tv than a monitor, too much bling on it so sent that back as well. Now down to these 2, a lot of reviews say the alienware is the best so bought that one which came yesterday but it was dead out of the box so that has put me off alienware a bit so hence the question about these 2. I take it I was unlucky with the alienware being broken on arrival.
They are apparantly the same panels but different software. Any one here got the philips monitor .

I was set on the Phillips monitor, but it went out of stock just as I was about to pull the trigger.
I ended up with this one:
AOC Agon 34" AG346UCD 3440x1440 QD-OLED 175hz 0.03ms FreeSync Curved Ultrawide Gaming Monitor
Order AOC Agon 34" AG346UCD 3440x1440 QD-OLED 175hz 0.03ms FreeSync Curved Ultrawide Gaming Monitor now online and benefit from fast delivery.

Build and image quality are excellent. Plenty of options and oled care functions too. No regrets.
I got mine quite a bit cheaper than this though.

Dell for me, cheapest, best warranty and CS.
Alienware gets my vote. Sounds like you were definitely unlucky with your one being dead on arrival.
The next gen 34" QD OLED from Dell will be available soon too, will be a nice improvement over the DWF. Depending on your budget it may be worth holding out for that, or a sale/knock down in price for the DWF.
