Pick Coursera if…
You want what its maker publishes above — check its page for the details.
Pick edX if…
edX suits learners pursuing education or ongoing professional development through courses, certificates, microcredentials, and other programs. Institutions and businesses can consider its LMS integrations and administrative tools; app users who need timed or proctored exams must use something other than the app for those exams.
