Some of Ethereum's tech may be better, but their Windows client is lacking in terms of customization. If you don't have enough free space on your C drive, you can't run it... at least without symlinks or manually running geth with command line options first before running the ethereum client, which is very kludgey and doesn't work well with the internal updater. Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc all let you select the location of your blockchain store so a typical PC configuration of a fast smaller SSD C: and larger D: etc data store can run it without issue. And you can install those clients anywhere you like and keep the data anywhere you like for maximum customization and security.
