I use both. They overlap a lot, but they do each catch different  
things as well. Pylint has a lot more power for enforcing coding  
styles, if you care to do that. Another advantage of Pylint is that  
it can inspect code even if some of the imports are unavailable.

But in case, I almost always run both and take care of any errors/ 
warnings.
