No use of bumping the thread. None will reply to your posts as there are spammers floating in this Board who have no knowledge in crypto and won't reply to any technical posts. Both Geth and Parity are really helpful in customer's perspective.

Here are some of the

Pros and Cons of a Parity Node :

Pros

1. It helps you to get full control over the blockchain and understand ins and outs of a transaction occurring on the ethereum network. It has a good user interface which helps newbies to create a wallet easily.

2. Warp sync which is an equivalent to Geth's Fast sync has an added advantage to Parity because it helps us to sync the blockchain easily within hours by first syncing the lighter ones and then going on with larger ones.

3. Passive sync mode of Parity helps us to reduce the load created by the network on the hashes of block data commonly known as leaf node.

4. For simple users, it helps them to create a strong password and keeping the mnemonic phrase safely.

Cons

1. Parity was compromised to HACKS where a hacker stole over $31 million due to multi-signature code. There is really no authentication to open the node, anyone who can access your computer can go through the node.

2. Using Parity to pay for an ICO is cumbersome and difficult to handle.

3. Sometimes they are poor in connection and suddenly they are turned off during syncing etc.

I have never read of Geth Nodes, but you can find some key points here
