System testing is a testing process which comprises of testing the end to end functionality of the system. System testing is a test level in the software testing life cycle. It consists of both functional and non-functional testing.
Functional testing is a testing process where we concentrate on testing the overall functionality of the system, units and interfaces between the units or module. It is mainly a type of testing. It can be applied to all the levels of testing.

Answer / mfsi_satyakamm
System Testing- After integrating everything when the system
is ready, it is tested end-to-end to test whether the
complete system is working as it is desired to or not.
Functional testing- This is testing the functionality of the
application in compliance with the requirement &
specifications. It tests that the system is doing what it is
suppose to do or not as mentioned in
requirement-specifiation document.

Answer / sahil mahajan
System Testing: Once the components are integrated, the
system as a whole needs to be tested to confirm that it
meets the quality standard. System testing will be to verify
that it meets the functional and technical requirements.
System testing is also resembles like a production stage
where the process will actually run but it will still under
testing phase to perform the other types of testing if
needed and then finally test again under UAT.
Functional Testing: In functional testing we will check the
actual functionality of the application which will verify
that it matches the business requirements, the requirements
which we got from client or from use cases designs. There
are number of types of testing which will come under
functional testing like : Unit testing, Integration testing,
User acceptance testing, smoke / sanity / regression
testing, localization and globalization testing.

Answer / mfsi_priyankaa
system testing: once all the modules are integrated,they are
tested to find the defects.This is system testing.This is
based on overall requirements specifications.Functional
testing:This involves testing the basic functionality of the
application/program. The knowledge of internal code is not
required.This type of testing is done basically by the testers.
