17 tmux is better that screen in a variety of ways. Many of those ways are minor, however all together and in total they're significant enough. You may want to stay with screen if you have a highly-customised .screenrc and use many other machines on which you're unable to install tmux, but screen should not be recommended over tmux without a very good reason.
