Well the one big difference is that mine is simply a website where you upload your log file, while pt-query-digest is part of a (apparently linux-only) toolkit that you have to download and install. This may not be a big issue if you have your own linux-based server and deal with these logs on a regular basis, but if you are on Windows and just want to do a one-off analysis I think my site is a much better solution.
In addition, since I am displaying the summary in a web browser I can add all sorts of nice enhancements you couldn't have in a simple console, for example:
- Searching and sorting queries on the fly
- Syntax highlighting
- Visualization (like the queries/hour histogram)
