I tend to use "atop" because it gives me a better overall picture of my system. But, there is something really cool about "htoo" that many users don't realise and that I hadn't realised until somebody pointed it to me recently:
You can use your mouse/TrackPoint in htop to click on menu options, processes etc...
atop is way more superior than htop, specially with the log history. I just use htop when I need to check cpu usage or a particular process. But atop gives a better system status overview.
