Soaker hose vs. other drip irrigation methods

I was at Lowes the other day and bought a 75 ft long soaker hose. I thought I would just run this along the base of my tomato plants.

I have also been doing a lot of research on drip irrigation using the plastic tube lines with drippers attached.....would drippers placed just where each tomato plant is be better, or will this soaker hose do just fine?

Also, I bought a digital hose timer...but I am not sure for tomatoe plants how many times a week, and for how long I should run it using this soaker hose. Thanks..
