I have both. The ESGE dual legged stand is far easier to use and not likely to get lost. The clickstand can be more stable, but it's a lot more work to get it out and set it up as well as put it away. If you are the type that loses stuff don't be shocked when you realize you left your clickstand 30kms back down the road or worse it jumped ship and you don't know where you lost it.

In general I prefer the ESGE. I can see specific tours and specific bikes where I'd prefer the clickstand.
