Planning and Scheduling Professional (PSP) certification is good but not very popular. AACE has 10 different certifications and PSP has second highest numbers of certified professionals as PSP. They have total of 4327 certified people in all ten areas of certifications out of which 1850 are Certified Cost Professionals (SSP) and 1205 Planning and Scheduling Professionals (PSP). In cmparison to this PMI's PMI-SP certification is more popular despite the fact that it was released just few years back, it has 1643 certified professionals. PMI has a total of 819335 certified professionals in its 8 certifications and PMI-SPI is the third least popular certification of PMI. I will strongly recommend you go for PMI-SP and I can definitely help you in preparing for this certification exam.

Suhail,
Recognition of PMI-SP is greater than the others. AACE is not good at promoting their certification, not in my region. I would go for PMI certification.
Are the stats available by region?
