I cannot compare as I just worked with Hugo so far. I was very impressed initially with Hugo, and I think it is quite intuitive. I liked that there are no plugins.
Right now, I have my site working, but I am not completely satisfied. There are quite a few bugs showing up from time to time. And even though standard things are well documented, there isn't enough information to quickly solve those issues.
So, for the next project, I will use something else. I plan on using Gatsby or Jekyll.
