What is the difference between using XML-Sitemap and the new JoomSEF Sitemap option?

One of the main things I see is that using XML-Sitemap, I am able to setup a cron job to have it run and update my sitemap XML file every evening. Can JoomSEF do that, or do I have to run the generate button each time I want to change the sitemap?

Please show me other pro's before I start using this option. If you are not familiar with XML-Sitemap, you can check them out here

Hi,

Well JoomSEF is mainly the SEF component, so components specialized on sitemaps have probably more options and functionality. JoomSEF does not create the sitemap automatically, it basically just provides the graphical interface for creating the XML sitemap file - you must manually select which URLs to include and set them proper parameters, but you don't need to write the XML manually.
