Actually the entire application that you use to calibrate and build the
profile (EyeOne Match).

Personally I think it's better (in the 2.0.2 when GM got it right) and I
think it's easier due to the Wizard GUI. It also does some intelligent
things for the more novice user like automatically pick the gamma based on
the OS (which of course you can over-ride if you wish and know how) and
detect if the display is an LCD (if you had say a Cinema).
Optical was the gold standard but it needs some updating (not only to fix
some bugs but when on earth will PreCal be part of Optical?). 4 or 5 years
ago, having two applications to calibrate a display was OK. In 2003, it's
getting to be a bit much...
