want to add that on coingecko information updating more slowly than on coinmarket, I mean if you want to watch prices of coins!
The problem should be on API or server. Remember that any of these sites were putting interval for its database to get the data through API from exchange sites. that was preventing the data base gets over loaded and it needs a few seconds to refresh the price. CMC has a better server than CG as it's owned by a very big entity and that's different with coingecko which has been owned by small entity. CMC has short intervals to refresh the price and this makes CMC looks even faster to update the latest price of tokens. 
Coinmarketcap and coin gecko both very much popular and favourite cryptocurrencies exchanges and price reviewing site in the cryptocurrencies market but some people are preferring individual. I prefer the best both sides.
For now it seems that I use CoinGecko more often as a reference to see and strengthen newly listed coins for investment, so far the information provided by CG is very good and accurate. But apart from that, it doesn't mean that I rule out Coinmarketcap as a platform that is earlier than CG because they both provide good and reliable information.
There goes a lot of bugs that have happened a few hours ago not only for coinmarketcap but also for other wallets that probably are attached their API to coinmarketcap.
Coingecko is better then Coinmarketcap. Coz CMC are not Track accurate Price in short time. But CG always Track accurate price of all coin/token. And Cmc team add all project without verify and Coingecko always verify all project before list and they are not accept unverified project
I don't know about the verification process of both websites but I think they both have their own way of verifying the authenticity of the project. But I've seen those projects when I click them that there's a note that cmc hasn't verified the liquidity of it.
Coingecko for me is better.

Coingecko for me after Binance bought Coinmarketcap. It's just like bias for me, a centralized exchange owning a cryptocurrency information/tracker platform.
Since I am not a Binance fan, I much prefer to use Coingecko until now, they just got a simple UI, and the good news they updated their mobile app before the mobile app is just like a mobile view of their web, but now, good looking user interface.

I have exactly the same feelings. It is true that I respect Binance for its smooth funcionality, but unfortunately the acquisition of Coimarkecap seems a bit unethical to me. Besides, Coingecko has a lot of new tokens that I like to observe. So for me also much better fit Coingecko.

I use both coinmarketcap and coingeko.In the meanwhile I use coingeko more. Because all the details of the token are well given. So I like it a lot. And to get a general idea of the token personality, coingeko is very important. So if you want to increase the general knowledge. You can use coingeko. The same is given in the coin market but I like coingeko better.
I prefer using both platforms as I find one to have something that the other does not have, though I think the newer platform( coingecko) has a better platform and gets regularly updates of markets performance , coin listings. I also think its easier to get a coin listed here than coinmarketcap because most new projects make announcements of getting listed here and not CMP.
coinmarketcap or coingecko what you prefer or and why?
do you use other sites? why
I prefer coingecko a heck of a lot more, and that is because it is easier for me to see the BTC pricing. I have a tough time with that on CMC, maybe I just don't know where to look up. Also the BTC value is located under the asset which CMC doesn't have, I know this for sure. Also seems like a cleaner nicer GUI to me. do you use other sites? why
Both work fine, it really depends on what UI you prefer
I use both coinmarketcap and coingecko to compare the coin price and check the difference. Both coinmarketcap and coingecko give the data, although we do not know if that data is real or not but we can use it as our guidance besides analyzing the coin at the market. The design for both websites is good and it is a friendly user for people to search for the data. I think both sites is good for beginners but they must still analyze the coin at the market so they can get more info.
This is a wise decision.because instead of us being busy seeing which one is the best but not being used and just focusing on doing research on the differences, it will only be useless and get nothing.
both are more used to support all the needs we have both from data and facts.
this will be better done than we are busy comparing without using
I don't want to make a comparison between the two because I think these two are very important, because indeed coinmarketcap and coinecko help me make it easier to find and provide fairly complex data that I can use as my material for processing data.
on the other hand there are advantages and disadvantages of each but this is precisely what I need because they can be complementary to each other

To tell the truth, I use both services. Coinmarketcap is longer on the market, but I have the impression that the process of listing new projects is much longer (I think at some point they made a business out of charging a lot to speed up the listing process). Coingecko, in my opinion, is listing small projects much faster. If someone likes to invest in new, little-known projects, Coingecko will be more practical for him.
using both, two years ago used just Coinmarketcap and it was only for interesting projects, now I am using Coingecko more because there much more project listed!
I prefer coinmarketcap to coinecko, this is because I noticed on coinmarketcap that prices are always updated and dynamic, besides that there are many menus so we can easily analyze coins or projects.
Both of them are updated, I like both of them but there are casual times that coinmarketcap shows some bugs and I've seen that coingecko looks more stable by that time.But today after binance acquired cmc, those features that they've added. It's giving interest to most people that are new to cryptocurrencies. Although I'm not really into those.
I actually use both, but if asked which one is better maybe Coinmarketcap is more reliable with a display that is quite simple and easy to understand.
I did do some in coinecko although now I understand quite well but indeed for the first impression they were so complicated and inconvenient for me that it took me a few days to learn them first.
I would probably recommend Coinmarketcap

I am a CMC (CoinMarketCapitalization) user because I know that years back there are some issue in regards to this site but now they are clean and i think best to try them both and you decide which is more functional and more trustworthy .
What was the issue with coinmarketcap? The only one I know, that it is being a bit laggy during huge price drops in crypto and panic on the market.
I am a coingecko user, as for me it loads faster and shows price changes hourly. But I suggest to use both, because one might have altcoins that other dont have.
The only disadvantage coingecko has is showing prices, when altcoin is not traded anywhere, and on on "Market" section there is only a promotion of eToroX.
