I don't really know the cudatel product, id imagine they have some stuff that they use to interface with the UC stuff on the Polycoms. However, that doesn't make those phones superior to others as much of that stuff is outside FreeSWITCH.
SPA's are nice, stay away from the cisco 79xx. They aren't worth the trouble (as others have stated). Polycoms are nice but expensive, Snoms are good, Yealink is ok, etc. I use Polycom 335's and SPA 921's, I like the polycoms better but it comes at a cost.

For most supported I guess you should stick to Polycom since is what
cudatel supports most and what devs work most with.
