TRON vs. EOS is a very interesting match. Tron has a great name, and I think their team will be able to continue marketing it. EOS on the other hand has a very strong development team, and has been marketed successfully for over a year. I think more people are familiar with the name EOS then they are with the name TRON. For me what it boils down to you is which platform will be utilized more, and which platform will be developed on more....... and to that end I have to pick EOS.
Both TRON and EOS may be similar in the way they operate with smart contracts, but they have their unique visions and purpose in real life. TRON would become used for content sharing, while EOS would be used as the "Operating System" for decentralized applications. The latter with its dedicated development team, and vision, will help make smart contracts scalable, and much cheaper than their ETH counterpart.
On the other hand, TRON looks overhyped and simply a copy of other smart contract platforms. The way it is designed doesn't show anything unique, IMO, as it's very similar to other cryptocurrencies with no real innovation. However, EOS takes the lead in innovation as it has a unique approach to scalability unlike no other. I believe that EOS's zero network fees would attract developers into deploying smart contracts in its blockchain.
Nevertheless, time will tell us which will survive in the market. It could be EOS or simply TRON taking the lead. Otherwise, they'll remain in the blockchain space for years to come. Just my opinion
