When it comes to firing an action on a KeyPress, both are completely viable. However, I'd like to say that UserInputService is better when it comes to tracking user input, since it can check things like whether the player is holding a key down, what keys the player is currently holding, when the player changes their input, and when a player ends their input.

ContextActionService can keep track of those things as well AND lets you easily organise your input (pc/gamepad/etc) without checking through all keys Happywalker 185 — 7y
