BlenRig suits Blender users rigging and skinning biped characters, including those who want automated weighting and guides in the rigging workflow. It is not currently described as supporting non-biped characters.
Rigify suits Blender users who want to generate character rigs from metarigs and customize the result. Its listed metarigs and rig components cover human, animal, and character anatomy needs.
