For me the main difference here is that darktable does a constant job.
If I have a series of pictures the results are predictable (more than
with digikams raw processing). Esp. if you enables some of the automatic
tools the results are sometimes very good but sometimes next to useless.
And then it is very hard to get a pleasing result with digikam's
available settings.
