Marcio, It's best to go with Family Tree DNA. That's where the Azores DNA project is. I'd start off with the Family Finder test, which covers all your lines back about 200 years from your birth. That test is $99 USD + $7 postage since you are in Canada.
Yes, there's a bit of a difference between the companies. There are over 600 people with Azorean descent at Family Tree DNA. There's probably about 12 people with Azorean ancestry over at Ancestry.com. There's more at 23 and Me, but since that company was originally set up for medical type info, most people there don't answer genealogy requests. Rick is going to have to send you the join link because my computer froze up again and I'm answering through my cell. Excuse the typos. Hope this answers your questions.
