Iommi was more innovative, he was more mood oriented, he was less douchey. Its a personal preference.
I'll go with the less douchey also. Personally i think Page wanks around on guitar and noodles too much for my preference. Iommi certainly had a larger sound and clearly more distorted which i prefer. I'm not discounting what Page did, he obviously was a great influence for many great artists.
