You can't go wrong with either of these. If you're going to be buying a decent amount you might see if one of them would give you a contractor account. You get a pretty significant discount.

Devoe

I used Ferrel Calhoun for years but it was too hard to get there during their normal business hours. I switched to Sherwin Williams and wont go back

The guys at Ferrell Calhoun in Denham Springs are top notch.

I always recommend Benjamin Moore Regal Select for bedrooms and den, etc. But I prefer FC for trim and exterior stuff.

Both are quality stuff. Used to live Devoe but hard to find now.

I use SW always satisfied

I've done a lot of painting of houses----interior and exterior and my 2 go-to paints are Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore.

Both offer a few different lines of product from Rental Grade for quick repaints to freshen up to rent again to their top of the line products.

I stick to the top of the line stuff or maybe one grade below depending on what is being painted, kids involved, pets, etc.

Plus their stuff comes in different sheens from basic flat to a semi-gloss.

No good paint is cheap today, but you will find if using the cheaper paints out there, you will be painting more coats to get the coverage, so it pretty much works out the same as far as cost when your time is figured in.

It’s a mixed bag of brands for me: Benjamin Moore ceiling paint, S-W emerald for interior or exterior, Coronado for trim. Ferrel Calhoun is good but you’re going to need an extra coat compared to a top tier S-W or Benjamin Moore paint. I and many others had awful experiences with S-W trim paint with it running, not laying flat, foaming and other issues. I switched to Coronado for trim and it’s like heaven painting with it.
