There is also ivy with ivy-switch-buffer.

+1 for helm. But I prefer using helm-mini, which also shows you Recentf to helm-buffers-list.

This is basically the best answer now. Sure, you can still use ido or iswitchb or icicles, stuff like that, but they are basically obsoleted by Helm. Yeah, ace-jump-buffer is cool, but it's not as fast as Helm, because before you know what key to press, you have to find the buffer in the list. Helm lets you narrow down the list with a few keystrokes which you already know (like the name of the buffer). I use C-TAB to switch buffers, load recent files, bookmarks, etc. Nothing's faster.
