Terminal Value differences between EBITDA and Perpetuity Method (within DCF Model)

I've been practicing valuing some public companies using the DCF Model, and I'm using both the EBITDA and Perpetuity Method to come up with a terminal value. However, I'm noticing huge discrepancies between the two methods.

Is this normal? And when should one use one method over the other?
