Windscreen repair/replacement in France

Hi all, I have a pretty big rock chip and fear that I will need to get the windscreen replaced. Last time this happened I had the dealer take care of it but it was only a chip and could be fixed.

This time I probably need to replace the whole windscreen.
Not sure whether to take it to the dealer...do services like "Carglass" do a better job? I assume they have more experience than dealers in replacing windscreens, or maybe they would even be able to repair it...

Anybody have any good experiences?

Still have the warranty, but looks more like a gunshot than something caused by a bump. There's a clear impact point with cracks radiating outwards, so not sure the dealer's gonna buy that story
