The "local" electronics store sold me a pair of crimpers that listed for $55, but since the package was trashed, he gave me $10 off. Boy, I have never regretted it. No more of those cheap ones. Not a single bad crimp since I changed crimpers and yes, we use the "cheap" standard ends. We had issues with the "regular" ones, even though we had tried 3 different pairs of crimpers. We never left a customer with a bad cable, but there was a couple times the c able didn't work, and visually inspecting the crimp showed a deficiency.
These things are NOT very convenient to use, but they have this ratcheting mechanism that won't let you let loose of the connector until you squeeze all the way. The plug is tight in the crimper, and they are very heavy. Not a single bad crimp since then.
