Start with formulating your requirements and criteria. Otherwise
discussion of what is "better" is rather senseless.

JAXB is a very nice technology - neat, easy to use (once you mastered
it), free, open source etc.
Take a look at the BindMark project (https://bindmark.dev.java.net/)
for some comparison.
