While I would prefer to install php 7.4 from SCL, both IUS and Remi's repositories do carry it. Do you see a reason to choose one over the other bearing in mind I need to have multiple versions installed used

I'm a minor PHP user and 7.3 has been adequate for running WordPress. So I haven't felt pressured to investigate the IUS and Remi offerings.
I'd suggest downloading both and querying the packages to compare. Use "rpm -qplv" to list the files included, and "rpm -qp --scripts" to see what other modifications they'll make to your system. I always do that on "alien" packages to make sure they won't do anything unexpected to my system. (I so wish Windows packaging was this simple!)

Good suggestions, thank you.
If any C7 user has an opinion on whether to use IUS or Remi's repository for php 7.4, I would love to hear it. As discussed earlier, I am used to SCL but it is not available there.
