There is not a best or worst. There is what fits for your business purpose or needs. In fact, both have quit different orientations and in my case we found both can be used in a complementary way. Saving Changes...

I am a member of both PMI and GPM (German IPMA) since the 90's and get a lot from both. You have to understand what you need and what serves you best, Sergio is fully right on this.
If you are working in an international environment, PMI has more globally accepted standards and certifications. If you live in Europe, some of IPMA's national organizations (APM, GPM) offer better networking and local standards.
Also, since main concepts converge (like the PMI talent triangle and IPMA's eye of competence, ISO standards), you might consider both as sources for knowledge, networking and personal development.
Do not get tricked into separation and factions, we have enough of this elsewhere. Saving Changes...
