I use both BD Express and Petzl Laser Sonic and they are both great. On the up side for the Express screw i find it bites better on cold ice (-10 C and colder) , less expanding on the ice and perhaps has a better finish makes it goes easier into the ice. Finally it takes less space when you're racking up. On the down side it's harder to operate with mittens or large gloves. There you have the upside of the Laser Sonic it's superb with large gloves or mittens. Also you get a good moment when working with it. On softer ice I find it just as good.
