This can be a bias post. For starter, I like and enjoy Craig's bond movies; even I was introduced to Bond franchise two years before I know about Mission: Impossible movies which I eventually like and enjoy as well. After watching both movie franchises numerous times since I was a 9, I decided to say this : "Ethan Hunt is definitely a better field agent than Craig's Bond." 

Reasons why Ethan is a better agent: 

1. Ethan rarely uses firearm (hand gun and rifle) while doing his job. He uses it when it was deemed necessary to use one. On the other hand, Bond tends to use weapon to reach his goals even when it seems unnecessary like in *Casino Royale* where he attacks and shoots Embassy to catch a suspect (and eventually destroying half of the embassy).
2. Ethan (and his team) use tricks like wearing a facemask or utilizing gadgets to get to their respective goals. While Bond tends to use "the hard way" to reach his goals (use violence as a main way).
3. Ethan treats his friends and colleague better than Bond does. For example, Bond just puts Mathis' body into a dumpster after getting shot by a corrupt cops in *Quantum of Solace*. He could've brought the body to better place like in front of Emergency Room. I know that Bond and Camille must escape from the crime scene before anyone finds them, however I still found that a despicable act, especially from Bond.
4. The best part: Ethan tends to introduces himself with fake name in front of new people, especially when doing his mission, just look *Fallout* where he introduced himself to Erik (Julia's new husband) as Dr. Rob Thorne. On the other hand, Bond always introduced himself with "the name's bond, James Bond" every time he speaks to other while doing his mission. For those who say that Bond is just a pseudonym, well that theory has been debunked, at least in the Craig Universe.

Well, that's my opinion about who is the better between these two.
