Better in what way? There are many factors to consider when selecting a motor type. If you are just using the motor for single speed or you are going to be using a VFD to control speed though, go with the squirrel cage motor, you will have less issues with brushes. You should probably discuss this with a qualified engineer though. Or even just an electrician that has a clue.
