Personally, I think qbittorrent is a better general suggestion.

I've used both utorrent and qbittorrent and the only difference is the latter does not have any ads bundled.
μTorrent is, I think, the best suggestion for a client for people who need client suggestions. (having tried a large number of very mediocre competitors, free, open, or otherwise)
I usually stick to rtorrent on the commandline, but that's a shitty suggestion for helping bring awareness to hacker issues.
